They should have colored the spam button red. I fumble a lot with these new buttons. I don't understand why the designers are against color in the new interface. It's like watching a bad CGI movie or a video game with no details where every

I really like the idea. My only nitpick is that these days most projects seem to be ending up as jQuery plugins even when they don't really use much of its functionality. I think a standalone version would save a bit of effort for some of u

And considering the location (Texas), a slogan of "Lamar sold you out for big government" would have been much more effective and achieved the same goal. We have to remember that we are targeting people who may or may not give a shit about

Like the other comments noted, you won't go far with email verification alone (they might even use a completely unrelated email address). You can probably use a combination of email address similarity and ip address uniqueness but I think m

how would they make it photo proof ? I mean any guesses on the algorithm they use.. my dart in the dark would be that a photo would be absolutely still while a real person's face might twitch, shake, bat eyelids etc..

It's those minor but intuitive things that we get used to when using firebug. For example: 1) The inspect tool is at the bottom on chrome dev tools. It would have been much more intuitive to keep it at the top of the bar. 2) You don't see a

While first to market is a good thing to have, I think this space is still evolving so I don't think we can declare winners yet. Launch your product with reasonable differentiators. For example, what really drives most kickstarter projects

I suppose pi could eat into some of the arduino projects currently being done. Though arduino is much simpler to interface with various sensors - thanks to shields, once a few 'shields' for pi show up, the lure of powerful hardware and full

Liability might be unlimited, but most of the insurance products for other categories cap it based on premium. So that may not be much of a problem. I agree with the difficulty of modelling the events though... they need more data for any k
