I don't know who Reflexive are, but that's one of the ugliest modern websites I've ever seen.

Why would someone want to use your site over the better established sites that do the same thing (Craigslist in the US, Gumtree in the UK)?

I'll admit that I haven't personally taken such a class - sadly it's very unlikely I'll be able to do so. I would find it very sad if that you described happened, though. I think a male point of view would be valuable on a discussion of an

I find your reply objectionable. I believe you mischaracterised my argument or completely misjudged my tone. At no point did I suggest the original author's point-of-view was "utterly ridiculous", just that I found it frustrating and to try

I can see your point although I'm not necessarily sure I agree with it. I don't think I'm any more away of the facets of culture of the average man any more than most women and I don't like to think that women-kind is that distant that it's

I apologise in advance as this is probably quite a controversial rant, but this sort of thing has always really frustrated me. I guess it comes down to this: I don't see how sex matters when you're a business person, when you're programming

Gorgeous design, and I think you could fill a niche with it. Note that Buy It Now is an eBay trademark for "operating online marketplaces for sellers of goods and/or services" according to the US trademark office so I'd remove any and all r

This post is a bit overly critical, but I'm being honest and hopefully you'll understand what I mean. Your site design feels very dated, unprofessional and cluttered. Simple things like rollovers are wonky and nothing lines up - it's hideou

I think this article uses flowery language that makes it difficult to understand what the author really means, but if I understand correctly (and that's a big if) I agree completely. I think the core difference is this: jQuery is seen to be

It's considered bad form to reply to yourself, but "solely makes up for the gaps in jQuery" shouldn't be there in 10 - who knows what I was thinking?

1. I think adding faux-classes in JavaScript is pretty nasty, and is a fundamental design choice in jQuery. The fact it doesn't have it is a good thing in my eyes. I simply don't understand what you mean by "jQuery's SQL-like syntax" at all

Good. However, they shouldn't get undeserved praise for correcting something that was a bad decision in the first place and was undermining their own platform.

Canonical is a small loss-making company which has managed to expand their user-base and mind-share at a dramatic rate. Is it fair to compare directly their contributions with larger long-standing profitable companies like Red Hat or Novell

I have wondered for years why Yahoo haven't attempted to use del.icio.us as a back-end for some sort of search engine. I don't think it requires any great leap of faith that searching for a combination of keywords that numerous people have

Today was the day when I realised Twitter had truly "made it" as the BBC News website was using it as part of their live text commentary of the debate. You struggle to get much more mainstream than that in the UK.

What if Automattic's plan is to get it into the mainline Wordpress platform? IntenseDebate suddenly gets into lots of sites for free and it becomes a serious uphill struggle for any competitors.

This is the odd thing - you seem to be trying to disagree with me yet we agree almost completely on everything, except that "Vista isn't that necessary" seems to be an extremely fashionable thing to say.

Most people don't spend $150 on an OS, they get it "free" with their PC. The business sector, as it is, inevitably upgrade to whatever Microsoft puts out once they pull support on old versions of their OS. Microsoft have basically no compet

Being very successful in a saturated market is definitely possible, especially if you have a product that's much superior to your competitors. However, I don't believe that you do, especially as fashion is quite subjective and you'll strugg

There's a dirty little secret that's extremely unfashionable to say but is completely and utterly true: Vista isn't that bad. The problem with Vista is that it was bloated, didn't add much of value over XP and was initially MS forced it to

I had a quick play with the design using Greasemonkey, and I think it's much more readable by increasing the page-width and standardising the font-sizes. The script is a little slow but shows that with only a bit of work the site's design c
