Fred is a big proponent of "open", which is great, but it's still not clear that "open" is going to win this game. The battle between Windows and Apple wasn't just about "open" versus closed. It was about availability of third party softwar

I'm a little surprised that they removed the revised version of the bar. I found some of the topics listed there interesting. Seems like they responded to the technorati rather than what would best serve their needs along with their users.

It's not so much about slaughtering the elephant as it is exploitation of the villagers to promote his company. It's like he's saying to them "Fine. I'll help you. I'll get rid of this elephant and save your crops and even feed you for a d

The amazon link to python programming says Python 3 on the cover. If that is in fact what it's referring to, not sure if that's really what's best to learn right now. I started with 3 then realized I had to quickly downgrade to 2.6.

A hospital when implementing an EMR is looking for some cost benefit in doing so. One obvious one is reducing medical errors. The other is reducing staff size. If the physician has to do all the work in entering the medication (drug, dosag

My own experiences with eLance haven't been great, but I'm sure for some people it's worked out. It's best to work with local talent, even if it's going to be more expensive. I'm guessing trekdek hasn't worked out since if it were going to

I think Slide was acquired more for the talent than for the product itself - although that's an expensive talent buy. And who knows, maybe in some capacity it works out - I believe the Slide team at Google is responsible for the launch of D

Pretty cool. I like this part from the FAQ regarding phone support: " We do not outsource our support overseas or employ low paid, unqualified support staff."

Might be a good idea to create some filter effects on your own and apply them to your photos - giving a sample of the original and your various filters applied to it. Just a thought. Good luck.

"If it weren't for the fact that the iPad 3 is likely 12 months away with another set of similarly impressive upgrades I'd recommend all iPad users upgrade to the 2nd generation model." Huh? But couldn't that be said of almost every iPad or

You can only believe AT&T is a monopoly if you believe the future of voice and data is through cell towers. My guess is, it's probably not.

Maybe the bar should only appear when one conducts a search - so it could have some relevance to what is being searched - rather than right on the main screen.

It's happening in our hospital now as we have just implemented computerized physician order entry (literally just last week was the start date). I don't think it's fair to blame the physicians and nurses - sometimes it is the hospital and i

I see many physicians using an iPad in the hospital to access the hospitals EMR system in a very cumbersome way - they log into the hospitals servers, so they are then in a Windows setting, then log into the desktop version of the hospitals

The idea of agencies copying and pasting your ads is a bit shady of course, but the takeaway from this is pretty simple - you need to pay more.

It's still unusual for a company the size of Sony to reach out to someone like that. What's more is that it's now on Hacker News - so it's bigger news than Sony probably ever intended it to be.

Maybe it's also time to separate what is an interesting resource or tool from what is an interesting business. 150-200 million is a lot for a company that seems to have earned very little if anything. It's one thing for a Groupon to walk aw

This is great stuff. You can't blame any VC for being cautious at that early a stage though, and although the idea of hotels using airbnb to list their vacancies hasn't happened yet, as far as I can tell, it may not even matter. I have jus

True that is. +1 for the suburban golf loving VC's - at the end of the day, they are successful for a reason.

The NYtimes is a great publication but it can't simply be "now we are going to charge for this". There has to be some tradeoff. For example, lately they have been running a huge expandable ad at the top of their homepage and, quite frankly

If the government is going after these people it should be for one reason only - to hire them. Maybe with this kind of talent working together we could find out where rogues like OBL are hiding.

Is this really even a story? Shouldn't this be something the TechCrunch staff discusses amongst itself near the watercooler?
