Yes, that would be a perfect device for it. Because, when we talk about netbooks, I am not so sure I'd like to have Chrome OS on it. Ok, it would boot faster and maybe also run slightly faster, but the boot time isn't that much of a concern

Even if it is less than $300, how much less? I can have netbook for less than $400... I like the idea of CrunchPad, but still for the future I am thinking about paying more and buy a netbook with touchscreen - then the only advantage of Cr

Thanks. I am somewhat familiar with those systems, so I was mostly curious about how the Chyrp is unique (from those other mentioned).

But that was my question - whether I am allowed to do it. (for example, wordpress.com doesn't allow that).

Please do you know if it is officially allowed to display ads on tumblr? I saw some tumblr sites with Adsense, but I didn't find in their TOS or Docs that this is permitted. Does anyone know?

Hello, you work for Posterous? Good work so far, congrats. ;) Could you please reveal a bit of your future plans, for example what will be in the paid version? ;-) Or at least, I'd be very grateful if you can tell whether you are planing to

I have a question: How do you link to their articles? Do you write your own anchor text, or do you just take those from the website? If you take their headline (or even portion of their article), they might feel that you do not give enough

In my opinion what the newspaper websites really don't like is not linking, but quoting. Quoting some idea from another source with attribution is a very common thing. But this practice has specific implications when applied to reported new

No, no, no. I use outlook at work, gmail for general email and also thunderbird for one other email address. And I really didn't come across a problem that email being coded in html tables.

My thoughts exactly. I never had a problem with email being in html format, nor with being coded by using tables. CSS purists don't like tables, but other than that, this topic is a non-issue.

Ok, but how to interpret the results? If the memory is not used, it is a problem that Chrome takes up so much of it?

To throw different opinion here: I personally like the format of print newspaper. - yes, they are "yesterday" news, but that isn't a problem for me. For most news, I just don't need to know instantly that they happened. - by fliping the pag

I agree, Owen's arrogance is quite startling to me... What I don't understand is how Hsu wanted to challenge Kasparov for "title match"... World Title matches are managed by chess federation (FIDE), so it's not up to Kasparov or Hsu to deci

If you take those points one by one, none of them is a reason to switch to C++. But for some kind of larger projects where efficiency is important, C++ is still one of the best choices. I went from C++ to C# and wouldn't want to go back, bu

Oh, Jushua itself. Sorry, didn't recognize you from the nickname. ;-) I for one am still a del.icio.us user. Despite Yahoo screwing up your ingenious design (and URL name ;-)), the service still works for me. So far, so good.

I am sorry for the people who transferred their savings to those scammers. What astonishes me is how many people are willing to perform illegal things (because what those scammers are offering always requires to do something illegal).
