I had to agree with you on the patent pending statement and made a comment to that effect. I hate seeing things like this when it comes to software. Give it another ten years and I'm not going to be able to code a damn thing without violati

"Startups at that stage can move." What if they don't want to? What if they don't want to be in California. This gives them options.

I think this is overlooking something important. I would never pay for access to say, NYTimes.com or something.. because it doesn't give me what I want. Data. Hard facts. I'd much prefer to pay to access something like AP's newswire, where

I have envisioned a similar system for about a year now. Except it uses a semi-transparant display over one eye and a camera mounted to that. You wear a glove over one hand and you interact not with a projected display, which I find to be s

Please tell me that you seriously didn't just make it so that news articles without a link have 10% of the weight of news articles w/links.

I have to say, I don't like it either. I don't like the limiting of downvotes too. So someone can get say, +100 votes on a comment but, if they say something incredibly stupid, or harmful/bigoted/whathaveyou, it'll take a systematic effort

As for 1, it depends solely on price. If it's say, like that? I'll probably buy a year. If it's more like $9.99 or more a month, then, I'll probably do it monthly to avoid that single large expenditure.

Oho. Risky post, davidw. And does this product seem like things that others do? You can have shared sets and stuff with flickr, I think, and facebook does something /sort of/ similar, plus it has all the social stuff already there. Not a co

Having tried dvorak, I still find myself liking qwerty better. It just feels more.. right, to me. Different strokes, I guess! (Plus, my WPM is already plenty good. I can hit over 100WPM.)

I mean, look at it like this. I have a bunch of legitamite but highly used content. I throw it up on this, knowing that amazon's s3 service can serve it far easier than I can. And it uses one hell of a lot of gigabytes. Hundreds of 'em. A w

So put in some kind of limits. I am EXTREMELY wary of using anything that doesn't define limits. As I can have the rug pulled out from under me.
