Hm, well, your stream gives you a way to select which circles you are viewing, almost like tabs. I'm not sure I'd call it a competition with Twitter, though, more just a filter on top of streams in this case. Though, we have yet to see what

=\ I've been talking to HostGator support for 30 minutes and all I've managed to get from them is "500 errors are caused by too many processes running at once." Wow, thanks HG for that little gem right there. Sigh.

I wrote an article on this subject a few weeks back. It is not a step-by-step "how to write code," but rather a good way to understand the approach to self-teaching yourself computer programming.

Well I just started on a 28 day experiment... a bit more than a weekend, but fun nonetheless. Myself and some other travelers are building a travel moabile app for a contest. We're documenting the whole process and our steps so we can pub
