Why someone would design a charting library and design the dataTable without reusing someone else's format is completely beyond me. This one is specially bad because it mixes format with content, I thought we learned it was bad idea when we

Yes this is also known as Universal Analytics and has several new features more processing on the server rather than on client side and less cookies. It's pretty awesome by the way.

Can Google Cloud Storage be used to just store personal Backups? Getting started with the service it seems that it's really targeted to developers. Why can't Google build an interface and offer it as a backup solution. Maybe that would comp
