I have been working with my employer to use our lobbying resources to push net neutrality. It took me months of work to even get it started. Getting the company to take a stance publicly would be years of work. What they are doing right now

It seems to only be a slick wrapper around the website. No options, no unread message count on the icon, no ability to easily switch between mail and calendar... I love FastMail, and can't wait to see where they go with a 2.0 release.

I have met many younger people (especially outside the US) that do not have email. They see email as a tool for old people to communicate. A good comparison would be "So when I'm logging into some website, I'm not going to ha

It looks like the lock is made by the Sheng Jhou Co. of Taiwan and probably stamped with English/European markings by an OEM. They seem to sell it in a few different formats as a "flexible key" lock. http://www.ttn
