So if linux and macs got malware and viruses as often as PCs who would be out front? Microsoft should hire people to start writing mac viruses.

I enjoyed the article, but it was all over the place. It ended rather abruptly too. Props to this guy for jumping on board when he did, and getting out when he did.

To be honest, this would just creep me out... the last thing I wanna do is pull up this app and realize the plague is knocking at my door.

It's interesting how effective this commercial is without actually doing much of anything... I like it.

There was another article I read a year or two ago about how the Designer / Programmer was the elusive holy grail for many companies. I can't seem to find that article, but I figured this had some solid advice. As a designer that struggles

That's partially my bad. I copied the title of the article rather than re-naming it. I considered it, but for whatever reason decided against it.

That would be a great medium. Rather than having 4-5 apps requesting your location every 10 seconds, you could have Apple request once every 3-5 min, and allow you to designate which software has access to it... Great call.

Kind seems a little bit douche-baggy to me. People ask for favors all the time. Hell if everyone acted like this, what would be the point to networking? If I was in his shoes, I'd definitely take the time to read a few on occasion.

I can't speak for google, but personally I feel like it's starting to get over-played. There's constant specials on TV of every order, on every channel. Though "We Will Not Forget" I don't think we need another 500 reminders as to what we'r

This is pretty incredible. I'm curious as to what sort of engineering hurdles keep this technology from being scaled up. I remember hearing about this via Michio Kaku on one of the shows he did many months back. Anyone have an idea of how t

I think he is a little too ambitious in terms of who would be willing to pay for data. For those people who admire their stats out of curiosity, I doubt many would cough up money for it, especially for more than a month or two. Only compani

I was a little sad to find out Jobs hung up after requesting 4000 cups of coffee. It would have been far better to actually see if a little Starbucks could pull that off. Or if they would just turn it down altogether.

An interesting idea, but in my experience craigslist has some of the most flaky job-listers ever. I've responded to hundreds of telecommuting design jobs, and even with a really strong portfolio and website, I get little to no responses.

As a freelance designer myself, I can see exactly what you mean @wallflower. One of the up sides of all the economic woes of late is that it's helped me build a resistance to the normal fears that creep in, ie. being laid off or fired. Lose

This reminds me of a self-healing concrete I read about not to long ago. This new stuff can take a strain of 5% tensile strain without breaking, as compared to the .01 breaking point of regular concrete. http://www.sciencedaily.com/release
