If Everything Was Made by Microsoft

Great list, the photo mashup’s are hilarious.  The winning photo is well deserving of it’s title.

If Everything Was Made by Microsoft | Cracked.com.

Back in the 90s, it looked like Microsoft might take over the world. But after ten years, Vista, the iPod, and a government lawsuit, we feel pretty safe saying that’s not happening. But we’re equally certain that it won’t be for a lack of trying. Whether they’re unleashing the Zune or hip new Microsoft Stores, their ambition is only matched by their painful lack of self awareness. So how long until they try their hand at making, well, everything else?

We asked you to show us what the world might look like if it really did run on Microsoft. The winner is below, but first the runners up.

Whats Open

Check out my newest project. WhatsOpen.com. Myself and another developer have been working on this project for a few and it launched a public beta just after Christmas.

Whats Open

Anyone who is familiar with google maps [mashups] will know the basic idea of this site, but it goes one step further, and tells you what’s currently open, closed and 24 hour joints for a late-night fix. Being still in beta, currently only available in CA, soon we’ll have major metro based states for america and a few international locations. Register with a quick account and you can post your own favorite spots that are instantly searchable. Soon to come you can rate places, edit them wiki style and even upload photos from your camera phone.

Im also working on a WAP and Ajaxy iPhone version. Let me know what you think, there’s still a lot we plan on refining and adding.
