They've started advertising it on TV recently in the UK, and that's the only reason I've heard of it, but I'd assumed it was a new service, not something that had been running for several years so the valuation did surpr

If something really wants to be done about pollution from burning fossil fuels then bunker fuel may be a good place to start, that low grade crud burnt by shipping our wonderfully cheap crap from around the world... http://www.gi

Nothing. Except Thunderbird+Enigmail is not something that is going to appeal to the masses. Web-based mail came along and all of a sudden it didn't matter where you were in the world, you could log in and check your email from any com

The rationale for it was an anti-competition lawsuit brought by the EU. The pricing may be the same, you may even be able to download the components, but the difference exists and there is choice to select something without. They may have b

I get that, and I'm exactly the same. I'm not saying I don't need facebook, it's very useful for keeping up with people from around the world. I just need instant notifications (like you) :p

I don't know why people install the Facebook app on their phone. You can't view stuff offline, meaning you might as well just go to m.facebook.com, the browsing experience is pretty similar AND you don't need to install that

Whilst CP is a horrible thing, and we all thank you for the amazing work you are doing (genuinely, no sarcasm intended), your view does seem extremely biased. If the intention was to go after CP then if that was stated as the reason for clo

In IT maybe, but those security guards are probably permanent employees of the firm that Google sub-contracted their security to. So reality they may just be moving from being a permanent employee of Acme Security Corp to that of Google. It

I never looked at an iPod until at least the 4th gen, although fairly expensive compared to the competition, it had 60Gb space on the photo model. I didn't care about that much space for music, but it also doubled up as an external har

I agree with you. If you build your site with Progressive Enhancement then there really should be very little you need to do. We never support IE6, but generally will support IE8 and occasionally depending on the client need to support IE7

Before iTunes there was Napster. Without Napster I very much doubt iTunes would ever have evolved. Maybe Popcorn Time is the first step to getting a truly decent movie application that people can purchase through?
