It's not like when you are constructing a house and a tornado happens to knock out months of your hard work. Programming is less like laboriously laying thousands of bricks, but more like very carefully laying a small handful of bricks in

I've been using GoSquared for this and it has been working really well: http://www.gosquared.com/ It will be interesting to see how the new Google Analytics features compare. If they offer a GoSquared style API, that would be pretty fan

It was indeed too good to be true. I think you guys should mention that on the site. It's not really fair to compare yourself to Amazon's micro transaction fees but not actually accept micro-payments.

A flat 3.49% (not even including the 20% discount at volume) for credit cards is substantially better than PayPal and Amazon for micro-transactions. Is there some kind of hidden fee or limitation I'm missing?

I like how he proudly claims to have been advocating this issue since 2005, then begrudgingly writes that it has never been an actual problem in ZipCar's history.

Here's two "show stoppers" that made me stop experimenting with Titanium. 1) If you have a custom UI, dragging the window around is painfully slow and erratic. Resizing the window is actually so slow it's unusable. 2) The built-in zip func

There is still no way to turn off birthday notifications on Mac OS X. That is, any time it is any one of your contact's birthdays, Skype sends you a mandatory message about it which requires user action to dismiss.

I really like the new division system this time around. I thought I was good, but got utterly crushed last time! HuK commentated my match though, which was amazing (even though he made fun of me).
