I only use Chrome for testing and when asked if I'd like to sign in, I always hit no. Somehow 14 bookmarks made their way to my account. I've disabled sync now.

No. Moral of the story is "Don't fuck around". I like my YouTube account. I don't like Google+. Stop forcing it on me. I'd be happy with a YouTube that doesn't let me comment but let's me upload videos and

A few weeks ago, YouTube started automatically signing me into my Google+ account (which I was forced into getting) rather than my YouTube account -- which has years of favorites and other content. I'm getting sick of it. I only signed

One small issue is comments aren't shown as a sidebar so if you have many comments on a document, it becomes tedious to read them as they're tucked away behind little yellow boxes.

That actually sums me up quite well. For various reasons, I just don't get along on Linux. It always made me run back to Windows, but I wanted to use open/free software. I eventually settled on OS X as it allowed me to use most of

This wasn't about Reader specifically. Google has shutdown a lot of products. The latest being Google Checkout, which makes people nervous of building their business on Google's software. Since this service is paid, I could be net

My initial reaction is "cool, but I won't use it as it'll be shutdown soon enough". I wonder if enough people avoid new Google products due to shutdown fears so it leads to a product ultimately being shutdown due to negl

Transmission is fantastic but it's web ui lacks the ability to read trackers from magnet links. That's my only real complaint about it.
