I wouldn't call it perfect. You have to shift through all the verbiage to find the points you want. I think that email could have been refactored to half the length. Busy people want short emails. I'd be interested in knowing what the subje

I used to save bookmarks like crazy, and I was in the boat that had used stumble upon, delicous, magnolia, and diigo. I don't use social bookmarking anymore, or regular bookmarking because I'm always on my own computer can can you the autoc

There's enough articles that keep repeating the contemplation step. I liked this kind of article the first time I read it. Don't you agree you want to read articles that go past the contemplation step and into implementing a plan to solutio

I've heard this 20 times (Don't Build a Startup, Build a Business), I agree, but this article is like nodding your head at what you should do, but doesn't give you any indication to how to actually do it. I agree, lets build businesses, but

When my macbook pro died and I had to get the logic board replaced I tried using my iPad (3) to replace basic web maintenance for the week. I couldn't add a mouse or command-tab between programs. (without jailbreaking). I'd pay for an updat

Unfortunately confirmed. If your at work don't scroll all the way down.

Haha I thought it was a search bar. When you visit the page the text field already has focus so I had no idea I was suppose to type an email.

I have walked out on meetings, presentations, interviews and etc. I'm even audacious enough to tell the referral up front that if its a waste of time I'm walking out so be sure that its not. Half the time, the reaction is that I've lost 'fa

Mixergy Premium is like a gym membership. You'll end up spending money on something you won't actually do because when it comes down to it you just have to do it.

Also who cares about Facebook and Google+? Isn't the web moving past social and onto something new? I think will see the fall of the Social Empire and these social networks will break up into smaller social networks.

In my current project, I've decided only to support the chrome browser and all other user agents are redirected to a not supported page asking them to install chrome. I dont see the point in sacrificing my programmer happiness.

I use all of these programming conventions and take them with a grain of salt. To say they're stupid is stupid. I understand there are movements behind these conventions, but I wouldn't say these conventions are stupid.

I know in the javascript world there's a preference by large to use camelCasing but I'm not a fan of it. I don't think its easier to read, and there can be confusion with what to capitalize. Also whats the purpose of putting your templates

Looks like another Flock to me. There are a bunch of social collaborators/aggregators coming out and this is one of the few I've seen that is a desktop app. I think the only advantage is taking being able to cache data locally.
