Well based on experience, talking to past users and being with everyday normal people in general, I know how many people confuse the term 'Google' with 'Browser'. Also, the 'e' button with 'Internet'. Someone also posted a neat video a few

"I installed Google Chrome, it said everything will work. But after installing I again go back to internet by clicking "e" and it doesn't work" Compare this to when they install the Chrome Frame plugin: "I installed Chrome Frame and it rock

It's hard to kill IE. Most users don't even know what a browser is, they just click the big "e" button which takes them to google. Chrome vs. IE is like "Android vs. iPhone" debate for someone who doesn't know what a mobile phone is. Chrome

Reminds me of a 'Rich dad - Poor dad' seminar I attended on my trip to Philippines. In my case, I would have saved just a few hundred dollars, I got free AppleCare with my MacBook in 2008 and Apple has already replaced too many things, from

Shutting down FB account might be a solution to privacy issues, which can be easily solved by starting to use FB from something like TweetDeck. That's not big of a deal. But, the mere fact that people are feeling "friction" from shutting ac

I serve on W3C's HTML5 Working Group. This certainly would help search engines along the road. I wouldn't think this would hurt SEO in any way, may actually end up helping. I am not too involved with SEO stuff, but I can help with other stu

Not deleted account, nor planning to. Just clicking logout button does it. Now, I just login once every 2 days to interact, also saves time.

Blippy doesn't look bad at all from what I perceive from the homepage. They can do better by removing the TIME's quote -"Made me want to spend more". Any idea which just makes you sit and think about what more can we do is a great idea. I t

1.) Well, at first it doesn't. What makes things clear is your caption below your logo. Please make that more visible. 2.) If it's really one click, yes. 3.) A change of color scheme. The egg is cute, in a very ethnic geekery way. =)

I don't think so. Facebook only had 132M unique visitors in March, compared to 400M users they are believed to have. To say that 400M were active last 30 days, Facebook need to workaround the pigeonhole principle.

"He writes about startup things that haven't already been written about 9000 times." Probably he only found these 3 not published exactly 9000 times of all the things he had in mind. That's just deadly info retrieval. ;-) But I too agree on
