I'm a bit skeptical on the source for those numbers. "according to a new set of data crunched by NetApplications" - At least he mentions the source, even though he doesn't link it. He also doesn't mention what those statistics are based on.

I've put Duck Duck Go as my default search engine in firefox for the time being. Going to see how it works out.

Thanks, I didn't know about that. Actually, I didn't really know it was in California either. I googled that "PT" thing in the title, that's how I made my estimate.

That's in 5.5 hours, right? So 6 hours from the time stamp of the post? I'm a bit confused, I am in GMT-0 here (Iceland). With Daylight savings, different timezones, etc, I get very confused about what time it is here/there

What an amazing video introduction. I think more websites should do something like that. I'm really tired of watching video presentations of programmers clicking through a bunch of menus to show me how easy the product it. Excellent approac

Your version of the madlibs form also looks much worse than your usual signup form. I don't know how much that affects user signup percentage, but personally I'd have an easier time trusting your standard form because if it's design, not be

I really like the front page's simplicity I signed up about two months ago. I was pretty disappointed because I thought the purpose was to list all your online activities, tweets, facebook updates, blog entries, flickr photos, youtube favor

Well, rendering complex PDF files through html/javascript is considerably more difficult than using, what I presume to be, native adobe library in flash to read and edit PDF documents. At least with PDF files. That's what I tried, and the r

Ok, I didn't know about that. I can understand why they would seem unwanted, even though I don't see a reason to ban them, since I'd think links with shortened URLs would simply not be voted up in the first place...

Why am I being down voted? I'm trying to understand this guy's opinion. I don't understand why he made that comment, so I was wondering if it was a rule on HN or if he simply didn't like URL shorteners in general.

You mean on HN because we won't see the domain next to the link?

I've got a pretty weak single core laptop and I have to say those benchmark tests are by far much much much faster in ff3.6, these are my results: Garbage collection: 19 - 14 651 - 83 dom manipulations: 213 - 136 269 - 34 string: 400 100 1

Sorry for being very off-topic, but that three-column layout (or more in higher res?) of the text makes it hard for me to read. Resizing also makes me lose where I was reading. Sorry, again.
