I've never really understood the notion that any one country is better than another one. It just seems way too subjective and people seem to generally favour the country they were born or brought up in. I think it's much like picking a car.

For the non-technical, what are you using to create/draw the overlay heat maps? I thought it might be some sort of tile server but it seems to be drawn using JS?

I've been running a business review website for about 4/5 years and I absolutely hate it. If I had $1 for every time a business owner writes a review for themselves (signing up for an account with their business email address no less), our

Interesting, as there should be a lot of those kinds of people looking for a job I'd think, especially from local newspapers.

Is it not better to get someone in who is actually good at the job rather than me doing it reluctantly? I don't think I'll ever feel comfortable in a sales role. Another reason for wanting someone else to do it is so I can dedicate my time

I'll get used to it eventually, I'd probably get used to any of the themes eventually. Except the Terminal one, I'll happily miss out on the geek points to avoid it.

Luckily people will be getting a Theme switcher, though comparing my now "Classic" themed Personal account, to my Google Apps for domains default theme, there are differences, so Classic isn't exactly the same as the old default theme. I be

I like to spice things up, since it's the internet and difficult to convey tone in a string of characters. In real life I speak in a monotone drone.

Care to share?! I'd love just one good idea to sink my teeth into. I'm a web developer and I've ran small online businesses in the past but they were service businesses. I don't have any great ideas for a cool web app, even though I can bui
