I have a Yoga and I love it. I find myself using it in tablet mode quite a bit (though never on the train like I might a Nexus 7) for things like reading, watching video, or keeping up recipes while I cook. For all of the criticism on noteb

I'd suggest taking a few minutes (tops) to tweak the confirmation email. Either the sender, the subject, or the body (or all) should specify it's coming from Railyo. In gmail, the sender is showing as "bots"--I came close to deleting it.

It's great advice for people who have the autonomy to set their own to-do lists. If you have other people you're working for, it's difficult to say, "I couldn't remember to do it so I don't think it was worth doing." It reminds me a lot of

I've been using it for a few weeks and, quite honestly, it's not so good for marketers. Like you mentioned, it's not the easiest to use for someone who doesn't already have the technical skills. Where this is really useful is on the agency

I've been testing out Tag Manager for a few weeks now. If you want a free service it's good and I'd recommend it, especially if you do a lot of work with Dart, AdWords, and Google Analytics. If you have money to spare, though, I'd recommend

It doesn't seem so. Otherwise you'd have to imagine they'd be more transparent about it.

Yeah, that's a good point, but he also says this: "So that's who I said it was. When Aldrin came back, he told me no, first thing Armstrong did was pass the camera back to me." It's still hard for me to believe they were passing the camera

There were a ton of huge inaccuracies in that AMA. Here's a few things that were pointed out to be wrong: http://es.reddit.com/r/bestof/comments/xp6il/methusela1915_i... I wouldn't rely on that for any real information. EDIT: Not to menti

It isn't quite start to finish, but I've been enjoying Code School's Anatomy of Backbone.js: http://www.codeschool.com/courses/anatomy-of-backbonejs (Really, in general, I'd highly recommend Code School. Likely too basic for most here, bu

>because they couldn't afford an iPhone Why is it that it's really hard for some to understand that people sometimes--maybe even most of the time--choose an Android phone because they prefer an Android phone? With some iPhone models sel

Completely agree. I'm no huge fan of Gehry, but if I had Facebook's money I would hire a top-line architect to design my building, too. If they had gotten a drab, soulless building, there'd be complaints they had gone too corporate.

Really good article, with a lot of actionable tips. With that said... I can't be the only one who is tiring a bit of the crediting of Steve Jobs with nearly-mythological feats. For example: >People used to download music for free, then

I, likewise, was really excited about Simple. Less excited as time went on, but got really excited again when I received an email earlier in the week. All of that sort of went out the window when I found out they weren't letting me in becau

I agree with bmelton that one day I expect (hope?) NFC to replace QR codes. Beyond that, in terms of current alternative to QR codes, I'd have to say a short URL. It's not an exciting answer, but here's why I think that: 1) It can be memora
