Okay we get it, newspapers are dying, ads are moving to the web. It seems like Techcrunch doesn't have much to write about lately so they just keep coming up with ways to say the same thing, over and over.

I'm really not that impressed by it. There is nothing there that is any more impressive than Dojo, MooTools, or jQuery.

I would suppose that the Touch will stay at it's current price but get a size increase right after that "Buy a Mac get an iPod" deal runs out.

Very well said. This is why it's great that Microsoft walked away.

If you're looking to search an existing MYSQL DB I hear Sphinx is a good option. I personally use Ferret but everyone seems to think it sucks horribly so I'm sure you'll hear that from people. I have had no problems with Ferret at all howev

When did Techcrunch become a gossip rag? I understand that reporters need to follow leads but their posts on Yahoo are starting to sound more and more like Valleywag.

Exactly. This picture just keeps popping up on all the 'social news' sites. I guess it's time to move to a new community that hasn't been "topless chicks with unix book roll'd"

Not true. A CS Masters will get you a higher salary across the board. Even if you end up doing your own thing the more in-depth studies of a Master's program will help you in that respect as well.

Except that the "correct" link on Google is useless. If I search for a movie I want to watch it, if I search for a song I want to hear it, if I search for a book I want to read it. Sending me to informative pages can be useful but if I'm lo

I'm sure Jakob Nielsen can make his statistics say anything he wants, just like everyone else's statistics. All I'm saying is that I hardly, if ever, click on a text ad but I do see banner ads. Different kinds of web surfers are impacted by

I disagree, I think display ads work much better than text ads. Display ads have the benefit of always being SEEN, which means that I'm getting the message the advertiser wanted. When I see display ads for some TV show, game, or upcoming mo

That's an interesting question. I would say that it depends on if you think you would want to continue expanding it. If you really don't want to work on it anymore then turn it down and do something you want to do. If it's a project that yo
