They have Android smartphones... I'm very much wondering how this service will ever be able to work between the plentiful applications, including third-browsers (plus Flash support on 2.2). I imagine that the power user, at least, will have

I know about five (non-techies) that got Nook Colors and a few people that got Tabs (3 to be exact). It´s probably partially because of the stronghold Verizon holds in my area so AT&T isn´t worth it... there is literally no AT&T ser

I am trying something similar; I have screenshots taken of my screen and stored at a regular interval to a folder. Lately I've just been looking back to see how much I stayed on productive activities and such, but they may be good for some

Could it be that websites like del.icio.us and StumbleUpon generally have better sharing methods already than e-mail, which is not as quick of a method? Sites that are dedicated to sharing generally have bookmarklets, browser toolbars, an

Hacker News is the only thing I am guaranteed to read every day. I will occasionally click over to Google News if I wish to know what is going on in the world or Slashdot if I need something else to look at. But Hacker News usually satisfie

I know about five Jewish families that also celebrate Christmas as a non-religious holiday--the only Jewish families I know. I´d say the secular Christmas holiday is common enough in the American culture to not offend all that many people.

The kind of people that most e-mail newsletters appeal to are probably the ones that also don´t know how to use syndication feeds. I know my parents (and I´m assuming more of their generation) love getting various store advertisements and s

A country-wide move would make Linux being learnt in school much more useful. However, if the systems used in school are low powered and using software like, say, LXDE and then moving to Compiz-powered GNOME in situations where the specs wo

It is still interesting to me how Android doesn't show up on web usage shares whereas iOS does; my website reports far more Android share than iOS (and I'm on Android now).

I tend to just buy a copy (that I keep unopened usually) and download a copy from torrents if it´s DRM´d. That makes it much simpler for me, but I still know I didn´t just steal it.

I have no tolerance for products that have ads and I pay for them. Nowadays, a lot of times paying means simple ¨removing¨ ads. This is a product that I can achieve in some ways for free. Why should I both pay for it and experience ads.
