Haha, the ending comments - yes, the lack of finance & maths knowledge really has impacted. It's soo frustrating that those in the cabinet office here don't even have basic maths knowledge. I've no idea how this countries decline can be

There was a site called Jedi Britain earlier....or maybe it was called JFDI Britain. Liked that more. I think the hard part is finding collaborators. I'd lilke to see more side-project startups, with multiple collaborators. Yes, you can do

Someone should write one of these for aspiring MPs. I'm pretty certain most modern Western Governments seem to have forgot the basics.

I think the main thing to consider is how you are going to provide support. If there's any interaction with customers at all, you will not be able to cope / provide good service as a one man outfit as you go from (perhaps) 10 customers to 1

By the time the status changes it's probably too late for a significant number of cases, whereby 2 weeks later the status is 'in relationship' again. However, there's probably some worthwhile activity in monitoring wall posts from ex's in t

Nice idea, but it's a mix of ubuntu/mac/windows, so something web based would be ideal :) Having a look through these: http://superuser.com/questions/61404/what-is-a-good-office-m... http://en.jinzora.com/ http://xbmc.org/ http://exi
