Trust me, riots don't wait for people from other nationalities clashing. They happen in families too. On another, lighter note, riots add sort of a romantic tinge to college life. Hell, what's that UG in India where you didn't pelted stones

NewsBlur is ugly. I mean it just looks oily. The Old Reader doesn't provide an API yet it seems. (I had mailed awesome Android app FeedMe's[1] dev and that's what he said) FeedHQ started taking payments(actually became paid only) without an

Any API exposed? Any desktop/mobile apps out there or are in the pipeline? Because I really doubt that a YAMNA[1] is going to matter much or is brining anything better or new[2] on the table. [1] Yet Another Markdown/Note App :-) (minus the

I passed from a NIT. In my current company there are many people from IITs and other places. Two of my colleague in my team have done their PG from IITD and IITKgp respectively - UG non-IIT. My lead is a IITB pass-out (2006 ECE), going fo

ScratchPad looks very nice and useful. Is there any such Mac app? Doing just this and no bells and whistles? @OP: Your app is not reachable. Looks liked it's HNed.

Even AeroFS has Dropbox's handicap of 'you have to put everything in one folder' or mess around with symlinks. It ought to have been a little improvised at least.

I think it's like this: They are purchasing a social media campaign by paying each twitter re-tweeter $(DOMAIN_PRICE_FOR_DOT_COM - 0.98) , out of which of them will not claim their payment. And I am simply recommending a good service, the

They are not the only bullshit-free service but are actually costlier than, at least by $ 4-5, all other bullshit-free competitors. my current registrar doesn't spam me, doesn't pester me to buy their XYZSD and never adds anything else in t
