Organic milk has other ancillary benefits you won't find in "plain" milk: The land and animals are treated much better. If you have ever seen a "normal" dairy farm, and watch the amount of antibiotics used to prevent the cow's udders from

I agree with the parent - the one thing the iPhone has going for it is a _consistent_ platform, which allows developers to design the user experience around a hardware set that is pretty much standardized. I highly doubt the 18 phones that

I must obviously be in the minority opinion here, but I've been selling online for over 6 years using PayPal, many thousands and thousands of transactions, and really have had very few issues - no more then I have had with 2checkout or Mone

Do you have a ballpark figure? Is your decision to sell based on the work load or is it financial? Thanks!

You're correct - that would not be an issue if it worked with Gmail (or at least she could see how it works with Gmail). One of the other issues we have is that of file sharing - on her old windows laptop, we had a shared folder for images

I recently bought my wife a MacBook - she's previously only used Windows. For the most part, Mac OS X "just works", but to be honest, when it it DOES NOT work, it can be a real PITA to figure out a workaround. For example - why can't I re

I agree - it's for sure an apples to oranges comparison, but unfortunately I have a feeling that most users (and main stream media outlets) will gloss that over and pronounce it the "non" Google killer. I also agree with you that the poten

Agreed - it's been immense, and (unfortunately) I think I can predict what will happen upon launch - someone will find a witty "search" or question that WA should have no problem with (or they think it should have no problem with), and WA w

I agree - however, it does look REALLY nice. It's sort of how a Toyota sedan looks a lot like a Honda sedan - at some point user interface design tends to all point to the same "holy grail" of ease if use, so it's not a surprise that WebOS

Thanks for the follow up - it's appreciated. Jamroom was one of the very first CMS's (at the time we called it a Media CMS) that supported audio/video - most CMS systems back in 2003 were focusing on blogging and text handling, so it helpe

Pick up an iPod Touch - it runs pretty much all of the apps that the iPhone does, but you're not stuck with the monthly charge from AT&T. I'm using a Mini for iphone/ipod dev work, and the ipod touch works great.

I would actually disagree that these rules are not "taught" - I believe they are taught and learned, just as language is taught and learned, and the order in which you place adjectives, and in fact the entire language "structure" will in la

I've owned 3 mac minis over the last 4 years or so (2 G4's and now a new Core 2 version), and there's one thing that keeps me coming back to Windows for dev work - window management. Maybe I just don't get it (or haven't figured it out), b
