   Regarding the "branding" - we've added the logo and a little text "built on ampoll.com" for our poll images so users know where the poll results are coming from. Other than that, we're trying to keep it minimal

   tally.tl looks very sleek! But I'd say, that while the purpose is very similar - quick poll creation, our take on it is a bit different. tally creates a, possibly, fastest possible poll creation method. Ours includes some customisation

   Pretty sad Blackberry user here, who wants a new smartphone with qwerty physical keyboard. Blackberry went totally "hit or miss" with this one (I suspect the latter). Looking at it, personally, I feel disappointed that they sacrif

   Is it something that people could actually benefit from? I would imagine it could only be used by people reading personal emails. But why would you speed read them? Business emails might include lists, images, urls and this thing would brea

   Firefox 30 (Windows 7) does not seem to show the world map. The project seems to be similar to http://earth.nullschool.net/ , which does offer a lot more functionality.

   Same issue on Windows 7 + Firefox 30. I would not want that on my live sites, heh. EDIT: I would suspect, the site does not last long from the HN hug.

    Well, it's pretty clear what HN is interested in. 10 minutes later the database is crashing!

    I don't think that an article this long was required to compare an Arduino with a Pi. The comparison chart also seems to want to make Arduino look like something you would not want. It does not really reveal anything of meaning as thes

    I thought, it was pretty hilarious of Google Wave to have that "live chat" function. Maybe, it needed some kind of a "live editing" period after which you could not just edit/delete your message. But it's hard

    I don't understand the need to be on a contract :) I guess, that's just a thing that I won't understand because I'm not American.

    I'm not sure about that kind of stuff, but it's GSM 1800 and 900 so that's two bands, right? I don't know about the CDMA versions though.

    For such a "dumbphone", it seems to be kind of pricey, in my opinion. The camera sensor is probably the most expensive there :) For a seriously dumb phone, I'd go for a Nokia 100 or 101 (2 sim slots). It's got absolute

    I agree! It's truly overpriced. I have expected a cheapish, not groundbreakingly, but still, cheapish mechanical keyboard as it was presented by some programmer, not a company that is going for money money money all the way. But lookin

    I would see why it's so expensive as it's specs are quite great for that kind of a thing. But are that kind of specs (1GHz processor, 512MB of RAM and 4GB of internal storage) really needed for it when it could basically just do m

    Once, I decided to do a project by using basic SQL libraries, let's say this includes PDO as it's almost a standard. Then I thought, why would I use OOP (as PDO can only do that) if my project is not that big? I would not use PDO

    Being Eastern European (Lithuanian with a Ukranian last name), I actually found a woman with my last name which was awesome! And actually, it kind of reflects on how living sort of was in that era. Shit.
