   I think it's actually four weeks in June-August, three of which consecutive. Still good though. Not to mention that many parents of small children begin and end the vacation with some parental leave (to which the employer can't say, if two

   Increasing testing requirements on what? I meant adding it to the browser (or the window manager/X/whatever), which would not require a massive effort to test. The websites themselves already have to support (at least) three modes of intera

   How about a "compatibility mode" that displays a mouse cursor that you can manipulate with your finger, e.g. move it around, tap to click etc?

    This can also be done in Chrome, see other responses here. What Chrome also does is that it discovers searches by itself, so that when I type "im" and the autocomplete brings up imbd.com I can press tab, my search word and enter. There is n

    Once you've tried Spotify, you won't call Grooveshark instant any more. I swear, it starts streaming faster than Rhythmbox starts playing a local file..

    Ikea has motorized desks (sorry about the Swedish): http://www.ikea.com/se/sv/catalog/products/90088946 About €450 (for the stand only).

    We use Lua for embedded scripting in my current project. First I wanted to use Python, but I couldn't figure out how to build our app with MinGW while our Python is Cygwin's.. Lua is very easy to embed, but I think it should be easier to do
