Keep in mind it's $29.95 per year. They did say you get "DRM-free" music through the service. But with an annual fee, will you have to continue to pay the fee to access your iTunes Matched music?

And as long as they are properly trained. None of us would be able to simply get into an F1 car and figure out what even half of these buttons do.

The latest PSN update required a password change. They could have also added a required security question and then used that when resetting passwords.

The Secret Service was originally created to investigate counterfeiting. While the role has mostly shifted focus to protecting the President, it still investigates financial crimes. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Secret_Ser

Kansas City, Kansas makes up only a small part of the large Kansas City metro area. And, frankly, KCK is the least desirable area to live in (even with this new development).

Personally, I prefer the new one. It oozes strength and confidence -- definitely two traits you want in a shipping company.

It isn't per month -- it's a one-time signup fee.

With the signup fee currently at $9.25 and a pricing scheme of fee = (number of users * $0.001) that means there are currently approximately 9250 registered users. Who remembers calculus and can calculate how much revenue they have g

I assume they'll be pushing for more client apps first: Xbox 360, PS3, etc.

How do you know 90% of your market has a Facebook account when 100% of your registered users are required to have a Facebook account? Don't allow your user base to be restricted by another user base.

Keep in mind the author-icon/info-on-left concept isn't exclusive to phpBB, it's used by most forum software. It's used so frequently because it's what the user expects which is what drove this layout: making the site easier to use for fi

I assume he's saying there isn't a licensing restriction to have as many users as you'd like. Meaning, the client doesn't have to buy the hardware product plus a per-seat license.

Typography has always been a bit of a black art for me. In the end, I usually just settle on something that (I think) doesn't look terrible. Anyone have some basic and intermediate tutorials/guides, sites, and book recommendations?

Somewhat off-topic but this is the first time I've heard the phrase "Silicon Forest" and it's quite catchy! Silicon Florist is even better. Kudos from someone who appreciates a quality name but sucks at coming up with them.

Completely useless article. If you're going to criticize something, present an interesting solution. Otherwise, stop trying to increase your hit count. I do agree that the labels can be confusing and should probably be changed to the same w

Well this is certainly disheartening as I'll be moving to Kansas City in a few months with my girlfriend as she attends medical school... My job hunt begins soon and all I'm hearing is negativity about KC.

Great article. I've been interested in compilers since my college class and this scratches the itch.
