Up until 2 months ago, it was DownrightSimple.com. But I'm now using that for my iOS Development Company. The other one I really like is KeystrokeOfGenius.com, which I haven't found a use for yet. There's also CSLounge.com

I had a similar experience. ACA Gold Coverage through Healthcare.gov was 50% the cost of hopping on my wife's existing company health plan, 30% cheaper than COBRA, and 80% cheaper than outside quotes. I was actually shocked at how af

Sadly, I'm one of those panicked conversions. I tried the site out initially and paid for a full year. It ended up being too damn buggy so I switched to something else. I completely forgot all about it until yesterday, when I got a

Wanted to throw in a second vote for Jekyll. It's pretty easy to setup, and nothings lower-load than straight HTML serving.

You're assuming that what we're escaping from is the time dedicated to work. I'm more looking for control of my own destiny, even if it involves a lot more hours.

Directly from the report linked off that page: "In 2013, pickups held a market share of 13.6 percent of light-vehicle sales and 26.6 percent of light-truck sales" From the accompanying graph, it looks like the definition of "

Apple is set to report their earnings on Tuesday, July 23rd. If this isn't back up by Tuesday evening, it's going to be a very interesting earnings conference call.

I'm a current user of Spark Inspector. One of the things I saw in the Reveal demo that's missing in SI is the ability change the 3D Z-Index spacing between the views to make it a little easier to see.

If you zoom in a little further, you'll notice that the road is actually outlined in a dotted line and notated as "planned". So it's there just as a placeholder.

What do you consider a "reasonable" click price? In all likelihood, you're simply being outbid for adspace.

This has nothing do with cynical George Lucas-style profit maximization. It's a simple fact of technological progress. Since consoles are typically designed for a 5-10 year lifespan, the technology involved inevitably shrinks over that pe
