I've used adsweep (user script, not extension) for months and it works beautifully. Sadly the project is no longer updated, but it's yet to be a problem.

The only way they could be blackmailing you is if they said something like, "if you don't spend money, we will tell everyone on facebook how much you suck at maintaining virtual fish!" I don't think this is exactly the case. They sell a ser

Quite a misleading title. From what i read, this is absolutely nothing like eBay. It's more like a stock exchange. It's a place where gangs of pirates can receive funding for their exploits from outside investors. "Offline ebay for pirates"

With your method, you would have to get an email address after every word: in your own words "i would just read until the first space and append". At the first space ("bob "), you have no indication this is a valid prefix of an email addres

"asked 50 people on the street [...] Less than 8% of people surveyed did." Wait, less than exactly 4 people? So 3 people? So exactly 6%?

Interesting article. But does anyone else find the finished design (the vertical shown on the bottle with the leafy 'V' then the letters 'ero') just looks like the product is called 'Ero'? It's certainly the first thing I saw.

Love it. Minor suggestion - in the email, change the text in the email from "To unsubscribe from this service, go to:" to something like "To manage all your monitorings, or unsubscribe, go to:". It isn't clear this link does more, and I wou

If the numbers are right in the article, 40% of his "active monthly users" are making the micro-payment. That's an unbelievable conversion rate.

I'm all for some well-placed swear-words, but this article was so hard to read that I had trouble working out exactly what is wrong with the spec. Still, I can tell the author's pretty pissed off about it.

Can you cite any studies that demonstrate this? This is often stated as fact, and I'm sure 'many' lottery winners are less happy, but I would still assume the vast majority would see massive gains in their quality of life and would report i

I can understand the sentiment but not the body of the argument. We may be bombarded with information, and that's why many of us turn to aggregation sites like techmeme itself to pull out a subset of the news we want, for the quantity that

This is all taken care of using Amazon S3 services. Interesting read. I wish dropbox had gone ahead with their initial plan to charge $5 a month for individual users. I would happily pay for this service, but $120/year for personal backup i
