Consider this: Child is born in Germany and all the family members across the world see the picture 10 minutes after he is cleaned up by the nurses. Add other family events and you are in touch with everyone. The fact that it is somewhat cl

Not sure if this will make it better or not but I think Bing is willing to try lots of things to say to people, "We're here too." If the test results were done fairly (I have no reason to doubt them) it must be frustrating for Bing engineer

OK, I am using FF and love it, but what's Microsoft's market share in tablets? Practically zero. Windows RT and Windows are different, just as Windows and Windows Phone are different. Mozilla needs to speak up about Apple and hopefully all

Another problem is that "maps" change quite often due to road construction, detours or whatever.

Instagram success involved a lot of luck, especially in choosing their pivot. *It does not diminish their incredible talent and creativity, but those could have been "wasted" on an unpopular app until the money run out. Instead they chose o

As I see it, it's not a win (yet?) for Oracle. Sort of AP suing me for using their paragraph without permission. I am guilty of using it but it may be fair use, thus allowed.

Rothstein made 3,009 reservations in less than four years, almost always booking two seats, but canceled 2,523 of them. Until I read this I was cursing AA. Now it seems like they are trying to cost AA even more money, on purpose. It may b

Re-reading my comment it seems like I dissed Apple. I didn't mean to, actually I meant to say that OS developers (Apple obviously included) have a lot of patents that pertain to smartphones.

Yeah, and my house is for sale for just $300K when MS has $60 Billion in cash :). I would be shocked if they bought Nokia, it would mean a stop to all other non-Nokia Win phones. I am willing to bet that MS will suck it up and help Nokia fo

Google is better only with ads turned off. Otherwise DDG and Bing beat Google's ads anytime. Try surfing Google without an ad blocker to see what I'm talking about, they've gone way over what's acceptable. Either way I go the extra mile to

The title and story is tacitly saying that spending $500K on a domain is bad. I disagree, but I agree that they made a mistake on spending $500k for this domain, given their business plan. Some domains are rightfully worth millions and mi

They might want Y! to sell chunks of it (Alibaba stake) just so the hedge fund sells their 6% out while the YHOO share price presumably jumps. But lying about the degree, and that's easily verifiable, just doesn't look good for him.
