This is not a minor version bump but a proper new version - just that their version numbering hasn't increased by an integer point. I believe their version numbering is in decimals to ensure that this upgrade looks like a tick-tock upgrade.

Just curious, what are the issues that you have with Chrome that you want to switch back?

I am much more skeptical of using FB connect than using Twitter for authentication as a user. I guess this is because connecting my Facebook account will mean that I am sharing a lot of new information about myself with the service whereas

But how many such acquisitions actually become 'usable' features in the parent product and how many just end up being talent acquisitions? I don't imagine it's easy to integrate something into core Facebook than essentially just being a par

The biggest issue that I have with an app like this is the set of permissions that it needs with Dropbox. It needs access to my 'complete dropbox'. That implies it can read everything on it. I would rather that it only have a 'write-only' a

I don't run that service. I actually just use their API and do my best to ensure that you can't spoof someone's number (you verify your phone number with me before I can send an SMS as you).

The SMS service that I use to send messages has an option to send an SMS 'from' any number I choose and it works nicely. I can send messages 'from' anyone I want - and we actually use this feature to facilitate a user to easily get replies

I have always found that double quotes were good enough to specify inclusion and I did always use '-' to specify omission. Thinking about that, I do now get your use case. Can Google try and make + a double operator? We know that G+ only al
