No body is mentioning but the tutorial is really descriptive in content where much of the design tutorials on the web lacks. It explains each design step, not 'how to do it' but 'why to do it', which i think developer minds looking for in d

This one is better than Readability, seems faster. It's more instant like the old readability. I am complaining the new direction that Readability take since day 1 when they decided to first abandon old readability, than force a meaningless

Most of those services provide additional utility which CSS doesn't provide: strip out content from other site distractions. But yes, sites should offer more reading options and usability tools to users. Or may be browsers?

Dropbox sits in that transition period from local to cloud storage. I said earlier in my comments that cloud will be an OS feature and Apple will lead that. However it will not start with pure storage(their approach of experience rather tha

Storage price still 12x more then traditional harddrive backup(1TB=1000$). That 12x is what you are paying for cloud value added service. Prices should be at least half in order for consumer market to take off.It will come. In the mean time

Glossy embossed days are far behind. Subtle gradients, trying to achive 3d in 2d space with less cluttered effects. I would say very in tune with Apple's next design iteration. http://www.usabilitypost.com/2011/03/01/simpler-ui-in-lion/

There are places in the world where craiglist even not heard of. On second thought there are some issues with this approach, what if my social circle is narrow? Scalability and Reliability(reliable sources) are sitting on opposite side.

I used Quora a bit, mostly in movie section. The main problem is the quality of the questions are not so good. Something like "What is the best films of director XXXX?" seems so pointless and subjective. And it is not in only movies; in tra

This whole white theme might come from the same team that make new imdb.com re-design. For me it is too white, as with the imdb, the eye cannot distinguish items easily because it does not hang to visual elements.

Most of the time we don't see surfing as pure procrastination that's why after spending too many hours we don't feel guilty. We are expecting the indirect returns of reading this or that, in the back of our minds. Actually, iPhone is really
