Tell you what, you write an app that'll do it 100,000 times for me everyday and I'll leave it running :)

As I was reading his post, I was thinking that the perfect example of the sort of technology his methodology would apply to right now is the recent explosion of Javascript MVC frameworks: Backbone, Spine, Ember, etc. Using his approach, Ba

It seems that most of the XHR requests are due to the "is writing" notifications, you may try throttling just those to reduce the number of requests. Also, with so many users chatting the screen scrolls too fast so I would reduce the vertic

Regardless, who do you know that would fit the profile of someone willing to go after Wikipedia because of it? They would look like an asshole and throw away their political career, if they have one.

Perhaps I'm simply out of the loop, but could someone please explain to me why SOPA is such a huge threat to Wikipedia? As far as I know they do a fairly good job at keeping copyrighted material off, is there something else I'm missing asi
