Is there any kind of demo or do you have to register to even get a glimpse of this thing? Also looks like it has nothing to do with mind-mapping.

It is not always pure mark-up. Small businesses don't have the volume to be able to sell things at the low prices large online retailers like Amazon do.

I'm relating all this to explain why I think it's ludicrous to suggest that this illness is hysterical. I don't know anything about the validity of the research being done in this case. That being said, when people are talking about menta

If you have a patent, you MUST have a product or be working on a product using the technology in question or you cannot litigate others using your idea. That doesn't help in the case where non-innovative patents are used in an anti-compet

I prefer this approach, too. However I would still like to be able to use the scroll wheel to navigate pages when not on a mobile device. Scrolling up/down to move the pages left/right would be ridiculous, though. It would have to be set up

Ultimately this turned out to be a false alarm. Although the machine was under attack (on many levels: there was activity hitting the packet filter, trying all sorts of injection at the Apache level and having a go at SSH) the actual alert

The link isn't published yet, but they use a predictable URL for the mp3 file so it is not difficult to find. This sort of early reveal is probably frowned upon by the organization that produces the radio show, though. I'll admit that I let

This is probably a little hyperbolic. I have a gmail address and I don't expect it to disappear. If it does, however, I will still survive (after going through some temporary pain). I feel like you're telling me I shouldn't use a credit car

If you're in Atlanta you're near Georgia Tech. They're pumping out CS graduates, have undergraduate students looking for experience, and also have a pretty good internship program. It is not Silicon Valley but you're better situated than a

The site has too much hate speech, and it is hard to support that financially. Between the misogyny and the atheist anti-Christian bigotry, it's pretty bad. You don't have to be either a woman or a theist to see that's wrong. The site doe

I agree with the notion that exporting a whole list of contacts and importing them into a different social network is bad (and annoying), but I don't think FB should prevent me from exporting my contact list. On the contrary, I think social

It is an anti-competitive business practice even if it is strictly legal. I don't care who's doing it. In this case it is pretty clear Microsoft can't compete fairly so they're beating everyone over the head with their legal department.
