BlackBoard

An application used at Arizona State University under the "My ASU" tab to keep students connected with their classes. It is designed to be used to get students to interact with each other as well as with their professor(s). The only problem with this, though, is that it is typically down when it is needed the most. For example, the first day of classes or during finals week.

Student 1: "Hey! Did you check BlackBoard to see if that quiz is up yet?"
Student 2: "Nope. Stupid piece of s**t is down again."
Student 1: "Figures."

blackbox

Originally a X11 Window Manager.

Extremely powerful for it had a slit. Now it's dead.

Linux users have now tooken it's soucecode and created fluxbox, which is extremely good and much better than BB4Win. Fluxbox DEVELOPMENT VERSION offers Taskbar, and Icon Bar, not needed. As well as a more customizable taskbar and fbdesk for icons. Plus the remarkable tabbing engine, allowing you to group your windows automatically and manually.

Window users can now sort of enjoy Blackbox on Windows as a shell replacement called BB4Win. You can still enjoy your internet explorer by using it instead of explorer for a filemanager. BB4Win isn't as good for sloppy focusing and it doesn't allow you to have tabs, or to shrink the taskbar to as tiny as you want it to, but it's still a good blackbox shell for windows and a good replace of Explorer.

I decided to stop using Windows because BB4Win wasn't as good as my Fluxbox v9.10 for Linux. I just kill explorer when I load up Windows and just use the task manager to load up my very addicticting games that do not have a Linux Port and is too slow for emulating.
