Neat, thank you! I suppose my problem may be that there's only a handful of wireless networks around me. It'd be great if I could use my iPhone's location data on my desktop, hrm...

http://geoipweather.com/ is the site if you'd like to give comparing GeoIP vs HTML5 Geolocation a spin.

Laptop offerings change fast and often. Why bother asking if you can't afford anything right now?

1) They don't do any sort of PR in the US. 2) Open source doesn't matter to the vast majority of consumers.

Not really sure what to say; I was looking forward to this and it didn't live up to the expectations in my head. I would have liked to hear more about the Philly startup scene, Gabriel's angel investments, etc. Even after Gabriel mentioned

Put up something on your webpage asking for donations. I'm an OpenBSD developer and have received many hardware donations over the years due to the OpenBSD hardware donation page. Honestly though, if it's just PHP then the FreeBSD tests sh

Like every other open source project: - Do the work and submit it and see what the developer's response is. I run http://geoipweather.com/ . I could use some help on it. Specifically, a new layout to display everything on a 1024x600 netb

Kind of funny when he bashed Guy Kawasaki too. "Guy Kawasaki; born on third base; thinks he hit a triple. I'm sorry Guy but you've never done a startup and made all your money off of Apple stock."

I don't think there is one yet. Just this slide showing that they're using a bunch of VOIP protocols to implement it: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2010/06/apple-...

Right. They said they use SIP for this, which does require an account. I assume Apple/AT&T are automapping phone numbers to SIP accounts. SIP video phones have been on the market for years already.

Yanked; probably because it's not downloadable just yet.

It's probably just a tactic to reduce resume spam. After being unemployed for awhile, people tend to apply to everything to increase their chances of success.

I caution people against buying MP3s from iTunes because they stamp your email address and name into the metadata. Amazon does not do this.

Postfix has a simple configuration syntax and supports SQL backends.

modernizr reports that Safari 4.0.5 doesn't support MP3/M4A so I don't think they could use it since it's broken.

Should have gone to an OTA setup. All the shows he mentioned air over free channels.

Actually, allowing 3rd party vendors to make MacOS-compatible hardware is basically what almost killed Apple to begin with. So no, he's not repeating past mistakes.

Good read, new site does indeed look great. Digging the "we love developers" image. May have to steal it. :)

The same but not as fast. Usually 3 days to go through the ACH process. I routinely transfer money between my two bank accounts.

Unfortunately with 0 details. I'd be interested to hear who/what is their target market. SSD would be nice in a cloud server, but I doubt I'll ever need the performance.

Do you use asterisk at Twilio or something else?

If SEOmoz wasn't good enough for the oatmeal then it's not good enough for me.

Great! Earlier versions would place the mp3s on the iPhone but they would not show up in iTunes which made it useless.

Except it doesn't actually rebuild the itunes db on the phone when you add new music to it, right?

Nope, but I use Linux-VServer which is basically jail for Linux. It works well with little performance penalty.
