I was working at the age of 16 in the UK. Sounds to me like you need a guarantor, someone who is willing to be your company figurehead, I suggest a parental figure. I live in the UK and I am a developer who would be willing to work for equi

Dropbox always appears on this list and I completely agree. The rest are often personal preferences as to what works best for what you are doing.

Completely agree with XMarks, use it on Chrome and FireFox. As for other extensions (unfortunately its bugged on Chrome), I have vowed to keep Chrome free of extensions. I use FireFox for work and Chrome for play, I want Chrome to remain su

It almost feels like it should be a hoax. The Bloom Box appears to be genius and has massive funding and backing, but the web site is so cryptic and it has come out of no where, I keep thinking someone is going to say "gotcha" at any moment

I can't see your original comment above, but I am sure you were talking about why they had put 'wasted' in quotes, and that you felt homoeopathic medicine was a waste of time, so your last comment is quite off topic. However, while it may b
