Let's hope it has enough velocity to escape Earth's field and carry on. I'm sure it does, but I'll keep my fingers crossed, just in case.

Heh, it seems that people who still use RSS or have an interest in it also share the same reading lists. Newsblur should just convert to a blog aggregator. Then it could change its name, say, to Hacker News? :)

There's always been a competitor that, IMHO, blows Reader out of the water, yet it doesn't have a behemoth behind it to support and push it to the masses. It's called Newsblur, and I'm getting closer to paying for the premium version each t

Unfortunately, it's something seen much too often in Romania, and in many third- and second- world countries.

I think they went all in with this. Not only are they revolutionizing the concept of what a digital photo is and how it can be captured, they decided to introduce a new form factor for cameras. Is it the most comfortable, ergonomic grip out

Both. Take the courses you need to get a degree, and do what you know and love in your spare time. Going to college is not about learning anything useful in class. It's learning to go to class every morning at 8, learning to learn, and abso

I don't have a link, but I'm referring to a designer who also has a sense for discreet but pleasing transition animations. I'm talking about the people who designed the G+ circles animations. To me, that's separate from designing or mockin

I agree that a person's surrounding clutter (as you put it) does give a sense of personality (I did a photo project on posessions). However, I think you're missing a bigger picture. A minimalist's house speaks TONS about the personality of

I'd say for a web designer's needs, GIMP should certainly prove more than useful. These days, a designer should know how to mock up sites using CSS3, like you mentioned. Another advantage of using live mockups is that you suddenly become an

Depending on who your target demographic is, you could make certain assumptions. Without reading your blog (but judging by the CMD in your post), I assume you use a Mac and write about tech. You could then assume that your readers know how

How long from first line of code to launch? And what were your expenses for that time? In other words, what was the bootstrap amount you needed?

It's because mirrors are magic. On the serious side, this would be an interesting question to ask a child. We can all reason the answer from our knowledge of physics and the rules of the world in general (where there are no cool explanation

That's good enough for me, since it makes more sense. A followup question: It is indeed best when the button gets out of the way. What assumptions are safe to make about the computer literacy of your visitors (i.e. they know to hit Enter to

Why would you say he is misguided? I'm not taking his side, I'm just curious as to what the solution to the problem would be.

Mike, thank you. I do appreciate the help. I used to work with PHP and MySQL, but recently I've moved to Javascript on both backend (Node.js) and frontend (Backbone.js, jQuery, etc.). I love improving UX until it's dead simple. If it's Rail

Do you know of any interesting startups or tech companies in SoFL that are looking for new hires? The only things I could find are old web devel and design firms whose own websites look like 1999 and nobody who might do anything remotely ne

You could try building one. Almost every major Javascript framework starts with a Todo list as the Hello World project. Apparently, developers take that Hello World a little further, then start charging for it. </rant>
