Please do! If you want to add widgets with functionality similar to existing ones, please add details of the difference s to the description (e.g. 'Uses OAuth' for Twitter').

Dashing contributor here: That's great, the default style isn't supposed to be a one-size-fits-all solution, and it's definitely not trying to dictate design decisions. The real meat of the project is the underlying messaging that passes yo

I think that you'll find Dashing very flexible. You can fetch whatever data you need, and display it however you like. At its core, Dashing is just a promise that all your data makes it to all your dashboards.

Not all country-level TLDs are administered in the same way. According to Wikipedia, there are no restrictions on .in domains, and .it domains are only available to EU residents. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.in http://en.wikipedia.org/w

Certain TLDs have restrictions on their use, and .ca is one of those. Many registration authorities choose to let anyone buy their domains because it's a big source of income. Libya is one of those (or always used to be. Since the revolutio

Not at all, I just find it odd. Having a fancy URL is great, but the restrictions in place on certain domains are there for a reason and should be respected.

There are a number of factors, but I think you answered your own question. I don't claim to speak for the company officially, but as I understand it personally our target market are the 'real' stores you mention who don't have a problem wit

10,000 customers is very impressive. By comparison, Shopify has been running since 2006 and has just broken the 50,000 customer barrier. That said, Tictail is currently a free service. From what I can tell, no-one's paid them a penny. The r

That's bad styling on my part. The 'bag' logo goes to the homepage, but the text underneath it ("we're hiring") goes to the careers page. I realize after reading your comment that it doesn't make sense to send people to our homepage at all,

You're right. At the moment the site is very developer-centric. Ultimately I'd love to have multiple options for that section. One for design, support, finance, whatever. Time constraints mean that developers are the center of attention for

Props for doing this. Old projects are often a goldmine for people getting into a given framework, or people working on a similar idea.

It seems like the author sees where Apple is skating, and assumes the puck must be going there also.

Neat idea, and seems to work well. On the other hand, having to include two classes seems sloppy. Why not just roll the core styles into the position classes, or include a default position in the 'hint' class? Double dashes in class names a
