You don't think Facebook provides value worth paying money for? They wouldn't have to charge premium members (assuming they could convert enough free users) much to match their ad revenue... They have over 2 billion users, at leas

How old have your Golden’s typically lived? I’ve got a almost 11 year old (got her at 6 weeks) that doesn’t show any signs of giving up yet. My only complaint with her is that she has been food aggressive and she’s not a big fan of small ch

I would imagine you've accounted for this, but I'd highly suggest not applying for multiple jobs within the same company, with tweaked resumes/cover letters. I've seen a few of those and they always turn me off. When I&#

At the end of the article: The Atari we’re left with owns the rights to more than 200 games. The bet it's making is simple: people will be willing to fork out money to play them again on a suitably Atari-looking console. This is the

How much research have you done on the Ataribox? I decided to indulge, its been a while since I brushed up on the history of Atari. Ataribox is apparently being driven by the people that own the Atari brand and assets. Despite many years of

I don't think its really the news sites job to care about a products viability for longterm success. Almost all software/hardware is pretty short lived when you think about it. They'd be pretty hard up for articles if they on

From my perspective, its a novel little gaming computer with a neat industrial design and an Atari license. I don't see any reason the tech news shouldn't cover it unless they are inundated with higher interest news for the day.

It's a mixed bag for me. I work in children's entertainment and educational apps. While I feel quality fun educational experiences on devices are positive, I also feel like they are contributing to kids getting addicted to these s

Pressed juice is superior in quality, taste & nutrition than juice harvested via a centrifugal juicer that uses blades. That said, your point stands, if you use a masticating cold press juicer which you can get for $300 or less routinel
