I suspect the 37signals employment contracts still say "at will" somewhere in them. In fact, Jason Fried talked about exactly that at one point: http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2239-employment-contracts-wha... If you want me to treat a pos

You just described the level of integration G+/Picasa has with my Android phone: every photo I take is automatically uploaded to a (private) folder on there. For many of us, Flickr's appeal is that it's (self-)curated: you've picked your be

Interestingly, that causes an "Aw, snap!" in Chrome (beta channel) for me. (Fresh load of the maze demo; right-click on the only block on the screen, click "add comment".)

Think a/b testing: if your users start customizing around a particular pattern (particularly in larger numbers), there might be something to learn from that.

They feel they're entitled to ask for your salary history, which is a subtle, bur very real, distinction. (Much like some employers feel they're entitled to rummage through your Facebook account, apparently.) By the same token, you should f

Take a look at 500px.com; it seems a large swath of the higher-end of the community is migrating there. At this point, it's probably where I'm going to land with my archive if I have to move. Unfortunately, I don't believe they have the abi

I was actually just thinking about this. We're almost at the point now where you could reasonably package multiple LEDs into a multi-surface package, and do so relatively cost-effectively. The other side (pun intended) of this problem, th

The entire world is not the United States. :) "Feature" phones and spotty data service are still very common in certain regions, but SMS works almost anywhere with cell infrastructure (or via sat phones).

The tweet still needs to fit into 140 characters, including any metadata you want visible to the recipient. Think SMS. Hence, might as well make it a user-manageable item in the tweet itself.

There are enough of us in this relatively small community of free-thinkers who were touched by this man's work that, for a few moments, we'd like to pause to remember him. This has absolutely nothing to do with "intellectual interest": we'r

Interesting thing about that: if you're curious, dig into the SoCs used for this stuff, and you'll see that's really not about "giving access". The voice handling in most smartphones never leaves the SoC, and the OS just communicates with i
