I was actually just at a Verizon store and got a chance to see both Kin devices in person. I wasn't expecting to be blown away by any means, but I was amazed at how bad they were. The physical construction seemed fine, but the interface wa

The automatic updating is really nice. I'd like to see this around for more events. Also, almost.at was mentioned here a long time ago, and it's another great tool for live events http://almost.at/#wwdc

Definitely a huge improvement over the stock Android player. Another player worth checking out is Cubed (an exponent "3") http://jkontherun.com/2010/03/30/android-music-player-cubed/ A few things I miss coming from Cubed are the ability

Using "mplayer -vo caca MovieName.avi" to play a video file in a Linux terminal is awesome - even if maybe it doesn't quite belong in an article about Windows tricks.

I've missed Vimperator https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4891 since moving primarily to Chrome. It's so nice to not have to go back and forth to the mouse when coding and testing, and my brain doesn't have to shift gears as

The cost of devices themselves are so heavily subsidized by the carriers, that unless the data plan was significantly cheaper than a full smartphone, I would have a hard time seeing the Kins finding a niche to fit in above regular phones. W

I have been using Qik happily over the default Droid video camera for awhile. One of the best Android apps I've used. I have heard their iPhone versions are great too, especially since they add previously nonexistent video functionality t

Until pretty recently, the top google result on my name for years was this 1997 haiku contest: http://orangecow.org/pythonet/haiku.html It's interesting to me that this showed up on HN, as I remember Monty Python being a huge part of my f
