Interesting, this could even help to integrate same codebase using the chrome.storage API on Chrome Apps: http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/storage.html Still, it carries the normal limitation of key-value only st

With the GSS constraint solver stuff like this becomes very easy... #div[center-x] == #container[center-x]; (note that this is fully source order independent. It doesn't matter where in DOM the elements #div and #container are)

That is pretty much the convention here in Berlin... they just drop the package either at the kiosk downstairs, or to a neighbor. A lot more convenient than when they (luckily rarely) decide to drop the package to the local post office, whi

Depends on the country, I suppose. IIRC, in Finland you can ditch the paper copies only after the digital version exists in two places, which could mean GDrive synced with at least one computer, or maybe even the gallery app on your mobile
