I don't make it clear enough, so I definitely need to address that, but you can register and once you've done that you have the ability to save and view your own list of routes.

You can share a route by generating a public link then send it to whomever you'd like. I like the idea of being able to define multiple routes and color-coding and thought that would also be beneficial for events putting on races that have

Easy enough, that will go to the top of my list!

Then I want to email the link to that page, so I have to open the full Safari, then do the email link which opens my mail client, then close the mail client which goes to my home screen, go find my twitter app and open back up to pick up wh

To be fair, many of these products are in their infancy so yes in general the fix may be in version n+1. I don't think that's a defense of NoSQL products it's a common thing with any young product. Anyone who chooses an early product would

I don't like this at all but if you want to attempt to take a positive spin on it you could see that this would be a lucrative area for many startups to start offering services for handling these 1099's.

We don't live in a true Democracy. We live in Republic which is significantly different. We elect representatives on our behalf that we entrust to read and digest multi-thousand page bills and vote on our behalf.

Why do people think it is unreasonable to not support a nearly 10 year old Operating System? Safari 5 is not going to run on OS X 10.1 and in all honesty why would anyone expect it to?

Apple shoulders significant blame in this colossal mess. They knew the iPhone 4 would be huge and obviously failed to do (potentially forcing AT&T's hand) sufficient integration and load testing for this order process. Apple should've k

I've never understood these types of taxes. Whether it's the fat tax or the cigarette tax. If you have a real need for additional revenue to support specific programs then why base that revenue on something that you would like to end. If yo

On the larger scale, how about a projector screen that doesn't require a projector.

Not that I agree with him but this article kind of murdered his quote. He was replying to the fact that Jobs had implied that Flash was responsible for the majority of Mac crashes. I think jobs just meant that Flash simply crashed a lot on

I haven't used Microsoft Office as long as I can remember. I keep OpenOffice installed on my machines just so I'll be able to open certain documents that other people inevitably send me. For my uses google docs and basic text editors suffic

Wasn't much of a review. I Was expecting, by the title, a more technical point of view rather than "just think of it as a notepad".

Obviously you haven't used it! It is definitely meant for content consumption, not general interactivity with more complex web apps. What it does it does very well and does it blazingly fast!

Microsoft, as all companies would, is going to use their successful product(s) to push other products that they create. They had 95%+ of the OS market and simply wanted to push the use of their browser to those individuals. That doesn't and

It's a full blown web-app and it is the core of our business. It is also used worldwide with one of our fastest growing user bases being China. In China, at least for our app, IE6 and Maxthon (which like IE is based on Trident) are the most

I honestly believe that too much is being made of the supposed work involved in supporting IE6 theses days. Granted I would rather not have to support older browsers for a number of reasons but the fact is that supporting it hasn't been ter

I've been a windows developer for more than 15 years and I'd be hard pressed to find an app that I couldn't build with the express tools. The components missing are things I wouldn't use anyhow, that being the integration of Microsoft's ver

"For OSX, they give away development tools better than the ones microsoft charges ridiculous amounts of money for." People tend to make this claim and I just don't understand where it comes from. Microsoft has made available the express edi

Why is the author comparing the portable music player market with the e-reader market. In no way are they similar so you can't just throw out that Microsoft sold a million Zune's and the Kindle didn't even come close and use that as evidenc

I don't understand this point which someone tried to make above. If GV actually came pre-installed you may have a point, but the fact is that the users seeking to use GV will not be confused, annoyed, or furious at all. We understand exac

I currently use PayCycle and they provide a very nice solution and it's very affordable. Intuit recently acquired them, so I imagine they will become even more integrated into their tools.

What we need to do is encourage Google to open source their Google Voice iPhone application so that we can compile and install it on our own. Granted, you have to have the tools and your $100.00 developer certificate but it would be nice.

I agree, but you made his point much better than he did and without the insult. I think the point is to be more conscious of what we consume. However, plastic is not going away anytime soon so we should instead encourage people (not manda
