I don't have figures to back it up, but Facebook in Belgium also feels like it's declining. Not necessary new users, that may be still even rising. But mainly active users becoming inactive. Im daring to bet that's declining big in Belgium

I always felt there is something special about sharing food with others, it gives a sense of bonding rarely seen elsewhere. For building up a great company culture, food plays in my opinion a pretty big role on many layers.

I'm a longtime user, probably one of the first. This has proven to be a vast asset for me to track tv shows. One negative point though is that since I've discovered this app my tv shows I follow probably increased threefold, which at times

I'm a big advocate of gradual deployment, both in terms of features (limiting your changelog) as towards userbase (not deploying it for everybody at once if it's a sensitive update). Not really too concerned anymore about what time of the d

I like the idea of designing with a grid in mind (I use the 960 grid for many of my projects), but I never use the CSS framework to convert it to html. I just don't see the point, every design is unique and handcoding is always more perfect

This is so skewed. 1800 participants, all with different health backgrounds, then divided into 3 groups of heavy, moderate and never. That's not really a sample size to get any definite conclusion from. These results might be a reason to do

I really liked the idea, although a bit rough executed in the beginning, from the letter onwards upto the finale it really all fell into place. I loved how the birds that flew off the letters were kinda synced with the other 2 popups.

Great guest indeed. Jason is a true salesman. He knows how to get people's attention. Controversy is great in helping him just do that. But see through that (obvious) persona; he has incredible insight to share based on his years of experie
