Everyone has to be chipping away at Nokia, last year they were selling more phones in a day than Apple was for an entire quarter. Still happy with my N95-8gb though, none of my iPhone friends can take quality 5MP pictures or 640x480 video a

Sometimes I wonder if the average person makes these amazing leaps of judgment (i.e. flash website = poor product) when they visit a site in flash. Aren't you in the business of 3D printing also?

Last time I gave some serious thought to FB's revenue problem this is what I came up with. They'd have to find a way to sneak in a few initial tiny costs that don't abruptly cut off users who don't pay (i.e. limiting # of photos etc...). O

The thing that fixes this economy is each and every person not spending ridiculously beyond their means and taking on insane levels of debt up to their eyeballs. Don't be naive and try to blame this economic situation on some other bullshit

That's a quarterly dividend, so if you automatically re-invest dividends thats .5% compounded 4x during a year. If you're investing in stocks, you're usually not thinking that the dividend will be your greatest return. Dividends usually in

Let me get this straight... You want to spend $700bn exploring and trying to settle on some rocks in space when our own economy is bleeding itself to death? I'm not sure how you manage your priorities, but flushing $700bn down the space toi

It's not too hard to pick a unique username, and for a password, just start with a base password that you memorize and then apply your own "hash" based on the domain you're visiting. Example: Your base password is "fun" and you're visiting

I think it's sheer ignorance to believe that this current economic situation is just going to "blow over" like the last recession we had. We're not just going to spend and leverage our way out of this one (as we have with previous recession

I hate how TechCrunch seems to idolize Google stock, as if its not going to be hovering at around $40-$50 in the next 18-24 months. The market in general is going to be coughing up some blood for awhile, and I'm going to bookmark this post
