Anyone know of size limitations on this storage? I am in the middle of writing a jQuery plugin and storing data in cookies which have the 4KB size limitation (which resulted in me having to "chunk" the data across several cookies). This loo

wow - talk about a bait and switch. if i was on the road and used my ipad anything like i do at home on my wifi, i would burn through 2GB/month more often than not. if apple ever starts supporting streaming media via the ipod app to the ipa

I agree -- using the ipad over my laptop allows for a much more casual experience. i find myself picking it up/putting it down MUCH more than i did using my laptop (pre-ipad) .. using my laptop was/is a much more focused experience for me.

This is absolutely sickening. Just one more reason to be aware of who/where you buy your food.

You should offer validation services .. A wants Engish (E1) to French B translates Engish (E1) to French (F1) website facilitates C translating French (F1) to English (E2) without seeing the original English copy (E1). It would essentially

I can try - any way you could toss up links to the international listings?

agreed - the big 4 job market is RIDDLED with generally useless recruiters. KPMG and EY i believe use 3rd parties (taleo and apply2jobs) to power their internal job list and they are by and large horribley user-unfriendly (which is why i ma

I actually work for one right now, however I'm not happy with the role I was moved to - so im looking for other opportunities within the various other service lines at my firm (as well as others). I like the big 4 because it a stable work e

I've been looking for job opportunities w/ the big 4 and was having trouble sifting through all the big 4 job listing sites (whats with enterprise job listing platforms, they're so clunky??) Anyhow - the other weekend I whipped up an aggreg

James - I assume you would be the other co-founder. What expertise do you bring to the table? Business, marketing, technical, ideas, etc?

Big consulting firms = long hours, lots of travel, lots of exposure to "enterprise" software. A lot of actual code development is being outsourced, though there are clients that require the consulting dev team to me onsite. Also, these bigg

ncarlson - have you checked out wsod.com in Boulder, CO? -- I have two friends that work there and they seem to be "always hiring" .. I believe theyre a .NET shop, but from the sounds of it as long as youre a decent dev you should have a fa

Nice concept and i like the simple execution. the font size does require me to "move my eyes" a lot to read longer phrases. i like how completely simple and to the point it is though. it would be neat to let users submit their own inspirati

I had a flash back to the punk zines of yore -- except those were printed at the office depot and the "copy count" was always off by around 80% .. Not really sure what theyre going for with this. I wonder if this is something smaller organi

Thanks! its a similar concept to bestcovery, hunch, retrevo,testfreaks, etc. The reason why i dont care for those sites very much is they are so generic, and because of that, have a hard time really addressing and comparing based on the par

I 100% agree that each persons situation is the critical aspect. If it wasn't review sites (since they are usually general) would be able to fill this niche. The idea behind the slider on the Home page wasn't to make people think there is 1

This is a project I did to learn Ruby on Rails. Im sure I could've done it faster with the stack exchange framework. I started it about 4 months ago and i worked on it on and off, did a redesign, learned how to run a VPS (which is awesome b

jquery easyslider plugin w css image sprites -- all the slider images are in a single image, and the text overlay is all in a long UL. I have to toss a CSS class on to hide the overflow.

You ask some tough questions - ill do my best to answer. 1) the incentive.. to be nice person and help other people out, and possibly appeal to people's desire to give advice and be listened too? Maybe having accounts, and public "status" (

The more i think about this, the more i agree it is a crucial aspect - especially since the site focus on tech which is inherently a fast moving industry. thanks again for the feedback.

buro - I was actually thinking about putting in a warning based on the age of a question. I had thought about how to display votes based with various weights.. i think weighting by vote "newness" may be very interesting way to go about it.

yup - think its a problem with the jquery slider plugin im using. ill go back and see if i can fix that up with some CSS.

Agh - I assume the only people that disable Javascript anymore are developers that know what theyre doing. im trying to rationalize not fixing this - can i get some help? maybe i should put that as a Question on the site ;)
