I have to admit, reading the article I went back and forth between being impressed and being slightly freaked out. Best quote from the article that evokes both of those feelings for me: "This is search that truly knows me." Do I really want

Here's the whole text, as an app developer I definitely can relate: About .01% of users got stuck on the first screen where it says Enter Your Name. They apparently got stuck and not understand that you were supposed to Enter Your Name. We

This is one of those very rare moments where the idea is so funny and good that you'll probably have quite the success with the idea even if the implementation isn't the best. But it seems like you've done a great job with the implementatio

Very helpful, thanks... In Chrome I also have the language set to English with "hl=en" (since it always seems to want to hand me German results instaed). Adding the verbatim search flag resulted in the following search engine string for me,

Definitely a darker shade of grey IMHO. Reminds me of the SourceForge ads shown on the download pages that have a big green "download" button. The ads usually display before the actual download button appears, and more than once I have acci

At least on ipad, you can switch the view from List to Date-based. You then have a scrollable calendar view on the left. When you tap a day, you can then type in a reminder on the right and it automatically gets added to remind you that day

Would love this for a paper calendar. I remember being stumped by the same problem of wanting a better overview over periods of time, and so came up with a scrollable-zoomable-timeline visualization called LineTime ( http://www.linetimeapp.

Wow, Crimson Steam Pirates is an INCREDIBLE game, that is quite the poster child for Moai, which I also had never heard of before.
