For people who like this sort of thing, this is exactly the sort of thing that they'll like. If it works for her, great. Fabulous. Fantastic. Everyone's life is their own.

I have no iPhone, but this looks interesting. How will they make money? I'm assuming they'll sell the iP app? How will they keep making money to make more blinks, when I've only bought the app once?

That's you? I love listening to my local sheriff radio. Nicely done.

Ah, I notice you may not be US-based. If you don't want to pass through US customs, you can probably get a similar experience on an island near Vancouver BC, Canada.

Interesting, I clicked on this because the link says forbes.com, and when I read the actual headline, "Mark Zuckerberg: Don't Just Start A Company, Do Something Fundamental," I was immediately uninterested. I don't think I would have clicke

Don't the Googs and FBooks do almost exactly that, for employees? Not much of a step to do it for the paying public. Maybe the fiction of some association would get by current regulation/monopoly.

A lot of people in small claims court would at best irritate them. Best is to just leave.

Anything else, if you run your business on it. Seriously. Edit: Or your schoolwork, or anything important.

And yet the environment in which they work encourages more granted patents, as the new patent examination facilities being promoted by the administration imply (to me). Obama's/admin's stated reasons are to grant more patents faster.

If anyone has credibility here, it's Bezos (for reasons listed in other posts). Not sarcasm.

They could require licenses, so that corporations can make money while individuals have less freedom.

"How do you get a patent ..." The only way I can make sense of these ridiculous patents is if the patent examiners are under pressure to grant patents as part of their yearly performance metrics.

There were probably two sets of crimes. The activity he performed in the UK, which could be "seen" by observation during activity in the place where he did it and compared against UK law. And the "damage" done in the US, during and after hi

It might be useful to show relevant content from my local system on things that I've written already, like maybe notes from a project, or excerpts from email. Writing code, similar suggestion, showing other code, requirements, design, etc.

In Firefox 16.0.1 on Linux, if I type a letter after the pre-existing text then the browser opens a tab that I had previously closed. Works fine on Chromium.

I by DRM-free books from O'Reilly. I wonder if they're profitable, or if O'Reilly does it for the good of mankind, or to make some other point. Or maybe they're just profitable. Whatever, I have no reluctance at all to buy an O'Reilly ebook

My libertarian cube mate calls me a progressive libertarian. Which I believe describes me literally, although the term has all the feel of that other marketing term, "compassionate conservatism." Still, I think it's pretty close, as a liter

I'm trying out Trac for a side project. I like it because it's both a tracker and a wiki, and your tickets each have a wiki page. It has a roadmap feature where you define milestones, and you can assign tickets to a milestone for planning a

With a Virtual Private Server (VPS) you are your own "master and commander." You're root. I use linode for my VPS. slicehost is similar. They both offer decent publicly available documentation/tutorials, so if you can't find an answer or pa

Usenet used to be ubiquitous, especially when most of us were using dialup ISPs. Now we're all on broadband and our ISPs (Comcast et al.) don't carry it. There's Google groups, sort of ... Does anyone subscribe to a for-pay usenet provider

Heck, don't even consider monopoly. More practically, how could they ever keep up? Whitelisting the internet for other people is impossible to keep up with.

I also run with flash disabled, which helps me not see flash ads (I don't mind non-flash ads). And there's very little actual content that I miss. Another benefit, that practice immediately reveals the odd flash-only site, showing me a big
