Totally agree with you. To be honest, Launchrock are just being ridiculous at this stage. They actually seem to be going backwards. I signed up for their beta over a year ago, still nothing except several "coming soon emails".

Oh come on. You're completely abusing Comcast's Service and now you're telling some sympathetic story about how it's unfair. 250GB/month is massive, and you knew full well that you were on your last chance, and it's not surprising that they

As @ig1 said, Facebook don't own ideas. (unless they patent them). They do have a very (very) specific patent on the News Feed if I remember correctly. Google does seem to have the same implementation as Facebook. I haven't heard anything a

That's fantastic, well done. Is there potential for Google to block me for too many requests? I somehow doubt they'd block me unless I was hitting the servers with massive load. This G+ engineer mentioned an official API is in the Pipes: ht
