Yes and with the native Salesforce.com app they are really moving to take on RIM. The SDK is actually much more impressive than I expected. I didn't expect game support like that.

My site klipboardz.com ups the vote on each story for any registered user that reads it, then a user can down vote it if they didn't like it. I assume that if you care enough to read a link then it should get an up-vote.

I think this is a really smart move. This could make Yahoo search something more enjoyable to use than Google. I personally like the added 'widgets; of Ask search but their results aren't as good. I think Yahoo is much closer in quality to

The reason I choose to continue with Ruby instead of moving to a language like Scheme has a lot to do with the community. There is so much activity in the Ruby and Rails communities that you can almost always find help with what you're tryi
