This is a non-sequitor, unless you are implying that not going to college is not fun.

Your post is all about why dropping out was great for you, yet you feel bad and you are trying to apply to get back in "in case you come to your senses". What is your motivation for going back to school, after proving to yourself that you

Why require an account? Just let me click a "Play Now" button. If you want to be fancy, you could make it like EtherPad so if I want to play a game, I could just go to freeciv.net/jeffsgame I would not be surprised if by reducing the barr

My criticism wasn't actually about the plugin installation process, it was about the fact that WordPress requires these fundamental plugins in the first place. "Handling traffic" is kind of a core feature. However, shame on you for encoura

I switched away from WordPress to a custom app engine blog package mainly because of this, and the fact that you need to install and maintain at least the SuperCache plugin if you want your WordPress to handle even a modest traffic surge.

Do you have any reason to believe that Google does this, despite Google publicly stating that they do not? I really doubt Google would stake the entire reputation of an already extraordinarily profitable company for the sake of the stupide

It sounds like you are accusing Google of violating its privacy policy. Do you have any evidence that this is the case, or is it just speculation?

Wow, this is great! They haven't announced anything new (still officially is read only) but it looks like they are preparing to reverse their stance!

Because I didn't need to? The free version suited me just fine.

So, basically, this issue doesn't affect you at all. No wonder you are nonchalant -- you still have full access to it for a few months and are able to gradually migrate onto a new product at your own leisure! Try to put yourself in the sho

After watching the CEO of OpenDNS spread tons of FUD on Hacker News itself, I will be switching to Google. Pro-tip: compete by being better, not by spreading FUD about your competition the second they appear.

Well, I hope that works out for you. Honestly, it sounds like you are going to be left by the roadside while a more nimble dude jumps in and capitalizes on the demise of EtherPad. Good night and good luck!

"I truly think the command line is going to be one of Bespin's fantastic features" No offense, but this is why EtherPad just got acquired for 8 figures and BeSpin is on track for obscurity.

Looks kind of neat, but it's a desktop app. :(

This one is so close it hurts! It is almost a perfect clone of EtherPad, but it's written in Silverlight. Therefore, it's painfully slow, takes forever to load, and doesn't act like a standard Mac OS X text editor (ctrl-t to twiddle charac

This is sort of a neat tech-demo, but it is unusable for serious editing for obvious reasons.

Google Docs was awesome at the time, however, it is not really a real-time collaborative text editor. You have to coordinate your edits so that you are not working on the same thing, otherwise you create conflicts which are a pain in the a

You clearly never used EtherPad or SubEthaEdit.
