You're right. When you fire someone, experience layoffs or people quit in disgust, the best thing to do is to let it go and if some negative publicity comes back at you, the best thing to do is to kill them with kindness, especially when yo

Nice try, but you've only copied their design, removed the polish and added a bunch of unnecessary bollocks to the thing. Also, people need to read the content, hence their visit to the site. If you're going to insist on using a dark backgr

In theory, you do not but until Apple perfects the technology, we'll just have to wait. I won't debate the merits of Bitcoin as a currency replacement as it is not needed, traded nor quoted in the financial markets. And by financial markets

The only thing they're sorry for is the quick, efficient and brutal backlash they were rightfully subjected to. All the "we wanted, we decided, we aimed" self-centered nonsense only solidifies the belief that it's all about them and they're

It doesn't. Sounds like there's a lack of imagination in that article or they're alluding to the inevitable result that people who possess neither the skills nor interest in making a visual customization of their site will leave it standing
