Let's also address the issue of interviewing. Most people can't tell a good programmer from a bad one (which is sad, really). There are also a ton of people out there that mistake higher percentile technical competence with software devel

Say what you will about the volume and lock buttons, but the new silence toggle is great. About once a day I would accidentally switch my phone from ring to silent (or vice versa) with my 3GS.

The anonymity feature (assuming you want to connect people together with FaceTime) will be difficult as your phone number is shared with the person you FaceTime call. I suppose it's possible that a proxy could be used, but I have yet to tak

The difference is that "cursor: pointer" means (by default) that the target will initiate navigation away from the current page. All other elements follow OS conventions as a matter of presenting a common UI grammar to the user.

Except that in this instance the "substance" craved is money. Microsoft actively neglected to support standards until it started to affect the bottom line. Pretending that they were clueless to how difficult they've made web design and deve

I wondered this myself until I hit upon the simple solution of deleting feeds with too low a signal to noise ratio (for my personal tastes). Expecting RSS readers to tease out relevance means having to give them an idea of what's relevant t

I'm looking for visual and layout consistency across all mediums (screen, print, etc) and in my experience ePub isn't suited for that. My apology for the lack of clarity.

The only thing I could applaud more would be a new (and simpler) cross platform document format (for asset encapsulation and offline viewing) that could be transformed to and from HTML on a whim. Scribd <-> My Screen <-> My

Agreed on the Google Voice point. Apple as a carrier might be far-fetched, but a solution to the problem of customer neglect/hostility by the carriers seems like something they'd be interested in fixing. Investing in one of the current carr

And yet for making phone calls there still isn't "an app for that." What intrigues me is that there have been zero rumors (from any of the sites I frequent) about Apple investing in or starting its own wireless carrier. Since they're not we

It's a curious thing that (over the years) so many people have attempted to bring the desktop window managing experience into a web browser. More and more I've found myself going the other way and wishing for less window management on the d

Wouldn't the point really be about applying pressure to those able to fix the problem? The sad reality is that business reasons have prompted developers to support IE6 and thus kept the problems out of the user's field of view. Much like my
