I was trying to show somebody DuckDuckGo today and I could not even find it with Google as the name had escaped me. In fact, all I could think of was Go Dog Go. It has its disadvantages too.

C -- It's the classic. I've only learnt Java in the C-style languages, and I'm interested in all of the code written in C. Emacs Lisp -- I love using Emacs and I've always been interested in Lisp from what I've heard online. Sounds like a u

I know even with just contacts the increased field of vision was a huge advantage when driving, playing tennis, and some other common activities for me over glasses, but this may have been partially because of my very strong prescription. I

Software: I expect Android to become a very widely-implemented operating system and to become popular in not only phones and tablets, but more types of embedded devices and netbooks, even if this isn't what Google intends. I expect Flash to

Most of the ads I have seen are specifically appealing to Android.. I've been playing Angry Birds a bit and have already clicked a couple of app downloads that look interesting and one for a foldable bluetooth keyboard... I probably have cl

My mobile device progression has basically gone like this: Palm OS -> Maemo -> iOS -> Android I could do more on Maemo and even Palm OS than I could ever do on iOS and Android. There were features everywhere... The Sony CLIE ser

I still find it more comfortable to sit with my mobile devices and reading glasses than with extreme font sizes. Even my desktop computer now I prefer reading glasses.. and even more so as the device shrinks.

Out of curiousity.. I often hear Safari being grouped with the iOS browsers, but is there any reason the default Android browser isn't counted there, since it's UA-String includes Mobile Safari as well. Incidently, I'm on Android now, but O

I somehow think if every key were to implement this, then quick typing would quickly lead to troubles. Why not simply do a long press for most punctuation and show it underneath, as on Android? I used to hate this about my iPod Touch, which

The best I've had in my experience is a Calvin and Hobbes strip, but they're probably too classic to matter. http://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes/1995/08/23 I had to identify and analyze the survey bias that his response creates for a

You make these assumptions with that one mode is definitely superior to the other. I know several teenagers who have willingly traded iPhones for Blackberries because they didn't like the platform. I tried the Mac experience, but ended up

From what I've seen, this ideal workflow is not near as much of a reality on cheap Android phones with not as great hardware. It is a reality on phones like most of the Droid series (I own a Droid 2) and the Nexus One, but most of the peopl
