I am not a big fan of the nav bar either but more so because the links that currently show up there are of no use to me. I think it would get a lot more use if they allowed it to be customized or if they updated it based on your usage patte

Don't know how well it compares to MaxMind or other commercial services but http://www.datasciencetoolkit.org/ may be worth looking into.

Does anyone know how using empty/unused TV spectrum plays into this? Seems like you would have far better success since they would be able to penetrate walls and other obstacles better than regular Wi-Fi signals can. I know there was some r

They do have auto-updates for IE now: http://blogs.windows.com/ie/b/ie/archive/2011/12/15/ie-to-st... But it's not quite there yet because it relies on Windows Update and it only shows the option if you haven't previously declined an upgr

I know the reaction for Windows 8 and the Surface has been trepid but I would've thought he would have been safe given his pedigree within Microsoft.

You know that the regular desktop interface is still there, just as it was in Windows 7, Vista, etc., right? You could be using Windows 8 and never have to see the Metro interface, save for when you are doing a search for an app.

Just out of curiosity, how did the email chain become that long? I've had a few that went into the hunderds but 55,000 is a lot.

Wasn't Google accused of forcing Motorola/Verizon to dump SkyHook in favor of their own solution by holding Android hostage? I am not sure what the result was but it seems one could say that's anti-competitive behavior (if the accusations a

If you want to call the phone an Android phone and include any of Google's apps or services, you do have to pay Google.

In addition to the Zenbook that's already mentioned, Samsung's Series 9 is also worth a look.

You could always open source the app. That way someone could pick it up and maintain it after you but it may also be useful if someone wants to load it on to their (jail-broken) device afterward.

Can you cite a source regarding the human involvement? I don't recall ever hearing about that. All the previous stories just indicated that the account shutdown was due to an automated scan.

Live Mesh held so much promise that I am still a little disappointed that Microsoft decided to sunset it. Not only did it do what SkyDrive and Dropbox do today but it also did file and folder syncing, bookmark and application settings synci

I don't think it's a StackOverflow project per se but it is used to power their Careers website. While it may not a big name backing it, I think it's a fairly popular .NET OSS project with a strong team/community behind it.

http://www.datasciencetoolkit.org/ may be worth a shot. Don't know how accurate the data is or how often it's updated, but we've used it before without any issues. I will note though that the geolocation functionality was a secondary piec

For instance, if Microsoft wanted to learn about technical or trade secrets of competitors communicating through Skype (say, a couple of start-up founders), now they're free to do it. Is that any different from using, say, Gmail or Google
