Given the style of the document itself, the language used in the header introduction ("Web apps that people actually want to use"), and the fact that every one of the "Previous Work" items has a gray "HTML/CSS" circle, I think/hope that she

If I were going to pick out a particular thing that stood out to me, the use of Advanced "Apple Terminal" in a resume of any format would throw me off. It could just mean that the candidate was trying to convey eg "Terminal"/"UNIX Shell", o

Eh, it works for them. If you don't have a desire for much stuff then it works fine. I'm in a relatively spacious ~550sqft 1BR and I don't really know what I'd do with more space than that. However, unlike some of the people interviewed, I

I just use Yippy, since over 70% of websights should never be visited by anyone. http://bitcast-a.v1.o1.sjc1.bitgravity.com/seehomenow/yippy-... A fun pasttime is testing their awful filtering. It seems like they just have a list of block

My mother got this phone with this plan, it's not the best thing in the world (the screen is a bit too low-res) but for $25 I think it's a fantastic deal for a device/service which really isn't that noticeably different than what the 'high

At this point, their "one trick" is advertising, but that's everything as far as the internet is concerned, and everybody wants to buy some. Sure, someone might switch search engines (I have), but now they've got a huge market of third part

Oh, forgot to mention: Savings accounts have a 6 transaction per month maximum (as mandated by the Fed). If you exceed that, you'll be paying fees. So if you're going to be doing a lot of frequent deposits/withdrawals, you'd want to use a c
