Way to go Google! Chase 'em with a hot stick! I'm so sick of charges that don't make sense. We bought Roku and a cool HD antenna, we are now Cable Free!!! TV not Internet.

I just spent decent bucks on my first new PC dev and gaming in years. Phones are nice and helpful too but nothing beats a PC (Ubuntu PC not Windows PC) for real work or real gaming fun. Windows 8 and UEFI threw me for a loop but deleting al

Good article. I like the idea of what Maven tries to achieve but I prefer monkeying with ant because I can get things done. If Maven or its successor ever gets to where things can't get into a mucked up state; I'm in.
