Can someone verify that the Steam version is DRM'd? Does it play inside a Steam window and is the UI any good?

Ah, that makes more sense. Opera doesn't exactly represent the Zerg of browsers ;)

Opera logos attacking page elements? Is there a backstory for this or is it just a coincidence?

Everyone I know equates those kinds of pages with phishing scams. For me, the problem is mostly about trust. Without the ability to examine the content beforehand, I have no idea what I'm promoting and as such I won't touch it. Your service

It's old. Google has god-awful mobile interfaces on most of their services that always either redirect you to something different or require you to log in and then redirect you to something different. Sorry if I sound annoyed, but it's a pe

Instead of limiting streaming to Chrome and Firefox, use HTML5 video tags and/or just link directly to the byte-ranges enabled URL ( http://serve2.com/uploads/a6312121e15caec74845b7ba5af23330d5... ) and you'll reach a lot more browsers and

For me (on an iPad), the problem isn't the loading speed, but the interface that blocks/loses the pinch state when rendering new layers. Zooming in/out stops working and you have to restart the pinching gesture to continue.

I'd lean towards a check box with 'make e-mail address visible (to registered users)'. That way you get the implicit message that it's invisible by default and can share it if you like.

There's already a bright yellow box that informs you about that, but it only shows when the e-mail field is empty.

Interesting. I didn't know it was possible, but, seeing as it is an UDP-like unidirectional message and an old system, it isn't surprising. Wikipedia has more information for the interested[1]. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS_spoofing

Beautiful work. Although, I'd recommend just reading the press release[1]. It is more in depth and better explains the accuracy and reliability they can achieve. I especially love seeing the bee in operation. Does anyone know by what mechan
