Thanks for the list. A friend recently did one as well, which was a bit more general, though has some good tips. http://makenosound.com/2012/01/06/podcasts-worth-my-time.htm...

A fellow Melbournite has done something similar with stellar.js http://markdalgleish.com/projects/stellar.js The iOS demo is especially awesome.

"Having the Simpsons is a privilege, not a right" A $120+ a month privilege? If I was paying that much for TV, I'd be expecting to watch what I want when I want.

This was party the reason for posting about it in the first place, but yes, I will be talking about what and why I'm doing this to my friends and peers. A recent study showed something like 70% of the Australian population have downloaded f

Funding a film like a start-up is a good short term solution. Sure, PG asked for a model for the future, but that isn't going to happen overnight. Something like this actually could.

I did some work in 2011 with a number of local bands, one of which has quite a big international following. This band recorded and produced their latest album themselves, yet despite this, still went to the major labels to release the album

I only have a couple of personal projects, which are still under way, and there is definitely room to add another one. Thanks for the feedback though, I guess my hobby would be 'tinkering' so putting it that way, no I wouldn't feel bad enjo

I think the alpha stage option is a good point. Get things moving asap with Google/Posterous Groups, and then turn some attention to a custom site including the desired features.

At this point, I'd agree with the 'off the shelf' solution that most are supporting here. Either starting with something like Reddit's code base, as suggested, or even the Google groups option could be a good start initially. If the need/de

Firebug was the only thing keeping me in Firefox for a while. The initial dev tools that Webkit came with were ok, but nothing on Firebug. Chrome dev tools have come a long way though. I use Chrome as my main browser now for both surfing an

"Of course, you should look before you leap" True, but there is something to be said for throwing yourself in the deep end. Totally agree that until you do start, you've only got other peoples experiences and knowledge to go off, which is n

True. I for one would also love to play games in 3D. I always tend to think of sports as more of a social viewing event though, but I guess there are many people who watch it on their own. It will be interesting to see how it goes, but I'm

True, but the benefits of having personal, portable music outweigh the annoyance of having to wear headphones. And as you said, you don't wear them in social situations, which is exactly what will be required with 3D tv. It is in effect lik

hi guys, first post here. As it stands now, 3D tv is going to be a flash in the pan. Advancements in tech is about making things easier, not more difficult/annoying to use. Having to wear ($200) glasses to watch tv takes all the ease out of
