We don't save your contacts. We use it to find existing contacts on Quip. Sorry it isn't an option. -- Bret

We just opened up the file at launch... Maybe caching or latency?

The best part of Quip is portrait on the iPad - just a blank sheet of paper with no toolbars. It is a really nice writing (and reading) experience.

Right now, we natively support PDF export. We also support "high fidelity" copy and paste, i.e., if you paste a doc from Quip into Word or similar products, it preserves all the formatting correctly. Not awesome and we will improv

We support external keyboards and keyboard covers for tablets, both of which are a big step up over screen keyboards. Works really well - I actually have grown to really love it.

The purpose of the Like button is to enable you to share stuff back to Facebook when you click on it. We anonymize all logging data collected as a byproduct of serving the Like button and other social plugins within 90 days of their collect

The best version of this concept is The Week magazine in my opinion (see http://theweek.com/ , though I the print version is really higher quality than the site). It includes all the major stories of the week with references and then cover

We bought Beluga because we love it, too. We bought it because we love the functionality and the team. So I wouldn't stress too much :)

This looks really cool. I have been messing around with coroutines a lot lately as well, testing libtask ( http://swtch.com/libtask/ ) as well as libcoroutine. Is the source for the changes to libcoroutine available? I didn't see a link fro

We use it to block spam and malware, typically to block mentions of URLs that are, e.g, links to malware downloads.

The nice part of the new Facebook messages product is that it isn't a standalone or competing messaging product, unlike many other products you are alluding too. It unifies SMS, email, and IM, and it interoperates with all of them. So if yo

I was also bullied in middle school. One day, walking off the school bus, I slammed his head against the window as I walked off. The bus driver, who had witnessed his bullying me for months prior was awe-struck and kept the bus running for

You added your friends email addresses in your Gmail address book. On Facebook, your friends put in their own email addresses into their profile and set the privacy settings around it. It is a subtle but important difference.

We have talked a lot about solutions like this, but most of them end up more trouble than the encryption proposal. For example, developers need to link back to your profile page and your friends' profile pages in their UI - do we change all

Navigation happens within Canvas iframes, and POSTs make the browser back button more than a little screwy. We definitely considered this.

It depends on the site. If you run a site that uses Facebook for login, when you log someone in via Facebook, you can ask for their email address via the "email" extended permission. Your site can then support a password reset page (like mo
