I've always wondered about tab usage among the typical IE user. Do you have any hard numbers or studies that corroborate your statement? I ask not to put you on the spot, but figure it's possible you have this information or may even work

I had a great time at the last meetup. I came to listen to what other people were working on and ended up getting a ton of great feedback on my own startup. If you're in the DC area and want to talk with a great group of smart people, thi

A little off topic, but you should know there's a better way than the Yellow Pages to find customers. The ReferenceUSA database will give you all the companies in a given area that fall under the entered NAICS code. Here's a small sample

That's such a pity to hear. Duluth, MN is a GREAT town, but with only a handful of companies doing any real software development (web or otherwise) I'd imagine it would be pretty hard to get funding. I know Points North ( http://www.points

Why create this site when a GIS site is quickly approaching beta on stack exchange. I'd imagine most people would use that site over GISQuery.com, and the quality of Q&A sites is directly related to the size of the community. http://a

FWIW, I also have the same problem (I'm a tarsnap user). I current have just shy of 2TB of GIS data (1.6TB is elevation data alone), so right now I backup everything except my GIS data. I loves me some tarsnap for the other stuff, but rig

Completely agree. Personally, I've been using the javascript testing framework from YUI 3 and it's been great so far. It's pretty easy to setup and I can even have the test output as a JUnit xml file. Did someone say Hudson integration?
