    Did Google rip off Leapfish?

    the leapfish video looks a lot cooler, someone really went to town with that, but i dont think you can say that googled ripped off leapfish. it is a good idea and google just wants to get on board whenever something big comes along, there are always loads of imitations.

    UAC and uni sites cut-offs

    far out, if you want to do B Bus/Comp Sci then just put it down as your 1st preference what Cem said is all true, but it shouldnt matter. you have no way of knowing what thousands of other students are going to put down, so you cant assume that the course cutoff will be too high. all you can...
