One person creates the "organisation", and then creates users/accounts within that organisation (or invites people). The organisation pays the bills. I assume it's not "first 5 people free" if you have more but either "up to 5 people free'

Commuter trains in Sydney (where the poster & I are both from) are double-decker where most people sit (except when it gets crowded). If his commute was anything like mine I get on when there's still plenty of seats next to a window and

You can't use the beta Xcode / SDKs to build apps for the relevant App Store anyway, so while it contains neat new features it's technically only useful for developers developing that particular pre-release OS (whether iOS 5.1 or OS X 10.8)

I had this where I'd be getting a "statement notification" from some guy's bank every month - no financial information in the email, but you also couldn't unsubscribe without logging into the online banking thingie. In the end I googled th
