I love StackOverflow, ServerFault etc, so i hope that the investment helps them to grow rapidly. StackOverflow has saved my life on many occasions. I hope they spend significant time on evolving the Stack Exchange UI away from the parent si

I don't believe that survey.io would have had that type of effect on your website traffic. We've been using it on http://technews.am for quite some time with no impact on visitor numbers.

So if you have an iPhone and a MacBook already - what's the point in getting a tablet/MacSlate/MacWhateverYouCallIt, particularly if it has the same OS as your iPhone? ?

If you were based in the UK, i'd recommend Barclays - IMO, they're by far the most innovative when it comes to supporting online business.

I was thinking it would be called MacXXXX or something starting with Mac. But MacTablet, sounds too much like a McDonald's product.

Thanks @lsc! I love you approach -how are you getting word out about your hosting business? What % are you getting actual sales from word of mouth versus SEO/online marketing versus direct face to face selling?

Are you on Mac or PC? My decision to move was largely based on FireBug and ColorZilla supporting 3.5. The fact that they both do made this a no-brainer for me. The increase in speed and stability is well worth it. If you still can't make up

I'm not sure why one would choose to develop with Silverlight over Flash - straight away you've cut out the majority of your user base.
