I don't think the Facebook concept is really something that is 'invented', per se. It is one of those kind of ideas that will emerge spontaneously at a certain point in the technological timeline, as the natural progression of things. It wa

On the other hand (and without disagreeing), there are very few technology companies who have been around for 20 years and still produce exciting, relevant products. Perhaps short-lived enterprise also has benefits to the world as a whole?

That's really amazing. Were these introduced recently? Do you think there's much chance of them realizing what a great deal they are and discontinuing the plans?

That sounds like a fantastic idea, but after brief look at the T-Mobile website it looks like the Even More Plus plans don't come with any minutes. Can you buy minutes as a monthly add-on, or do you have to pay the crazy $0.45 per minute ca

If you truly believe that an all-powerful, provenly vengeful supreme being wants you to personally spread his word to other people, it'd be a pretty bad idea to disobey.

Technology also has the power to connect us with the natural world in ways never thought possible. I can gaze into the innards of a cell from my desk, or explore the deepest reaches of the night sky with the augmented view provided by a mob

Think of it this way - even if you work for 6 weeks on something that turns out to be rubbish, you'll still have learned a huge amount in the process.

I'm not sure, but I suspect that some things are expensive enough to be beyond private investment. Mega-projects like the Apollo missions, the Hubble telescope, the LHC and such seem likely to be too risky to embark on with a prize as the i

There are some differences in approach that need to be considered. If you're building an app purely for fun, you can expect users to create an account before they start using your software. If you're building a business, you may need to all

Don't you find it exciting that you can sculpt something visual that ANYONE can see, just by typing code? After a long time, it still gives me a bit of that 'wow' feeling. It's the browser idiosyncrasies which suck...
