What's in a title? Imagine if you could come out of a computer science or design course with "Master of...[domain]" appended to your name. The grandiouse title giving should probably be reigned in.

It's pretty clever, but if I really wanted to explain why he's an idiot, wouldn't I use the convenient comments form directly under that without trying to do it in less than 140 characters?

A pessimistic way of thinking (apologies for my disposition on this entrepreneurial board) is that the odds of being born into an era with the highest population ever to live, are just that: the highest probability. That we're going to solv

I've always been saddened by the fact that we're so far away from other large cosmological entities that it's almost guaranteed that we'll never venture beyond our solar system and visit other stars. The flipside to this, is that we appear

That's why attribution is important. Edit: What azylman said.

So the charges brought equated to three options: 1) We put you away for the rest of your adult life. 2) You admit that you're a guilty son-ova-bitch and you do a small amount of time with a felony conviction that hangs around your neck fore

"my points" Your points? You choose a username of a deceased person to disparage them and then expect to be talked to with civility? You are an archetypal troll.

Generalisation ahead (based on my experience in London). Many people will have a morning coffee, but tea is drunk continuously throughout the day.

I wonder why it's not such a potent hot-button when it comes to climate change? Edit: "Won't somebody think about the grandchildren?" not as impacting?

It is an excuse for brevity that could be mistaken for abruptness.

Haven't read any comments here yet, but I firmly believe this analysis to be spot fucking on. Will be interesting to find out why this critique which aligns so closely to my own thoughts is 'wrong' or at least flawed.

Yay humanity? I certainly think it's an impressive milestone for hosted content, but there are many other thing in life, ubiquitous things, that don't have a Google counter on them, so the analytics are lacking.

The ability to do that is very well hidden.

My amateur marketing analysis follows... "Brand extension is a crime against marketing and against common sense" Agreed and it's an example of something Apple has gotten very right. Apple is the banner brand. What is Apple? It's a hardwar

Presumably they meant, when you're 'asked to agree' to new T&C's the diff changes in the new policy are highlighted. When presented with a new T&C's policy, shouldn't you explicitly be asked to agree to any changes from the previous

Would some people pay $50 more for a hpothetical iPhone with an RFID chip in it over the current iPhone 5, even if they only ever used it at Starbucks? Yep.

Sounds a lot like what Ryan Block did after leaving his Editor-In-Chief post with Engadget and set up gdgt.com.

I'd say the answer is yes. It's interesting, because I'd imagine if Johhny Ive wanted to pivot away from skeumorphism to a far simpler and cleaner style, the new Google 'style' is exactly where he'd want to go. They seem to be occupying the

Oh for fuck's sake. Tap and hold on the icon. It will wiggle. Now drag it across the screen with your finger and put it on a secondary page.
