Yeah that's one of my worries/complains about shareware. I don't have the time and/or anti-cracking security knowledge to prevent it, so I guess I'll just have to deal with it. It's an app directed at "normal people" and not tech nerds, so

When you click a link, it opens in the current tab. When you middle-click a link, it opens in a new tab (in the background). I HATE sites that go against this, and decide for me where to open the link. Especially since Chrome has an outstan

Cool! My thoughts: On the homepage there should be a much higher-priority link to see a sample gallery. When I clicked on a photo, I didn't know how to get back to the timeline/365 view. I went for the back button, but it wasn't active. It

I don't know if they work like this, but can you guys buy up a few small dollar gift cards and then combine them onto a single bigger value card?

Forget you ever knew anything about them. There's some leniency against the company seeking money for the time before they first told you about the patents if you didn't know there was a patent. Especially if the patents are vague. Also: ho

Ask HN: develop/promote work based on a soon-to-expire patent?

Yeah I've submitted bug reports about the tab-clicking thing, but their response has always been "but how else would the user drag the window!?!". Stupid. I'd love to see the metrics on how often users drag a full-screen window vs. how ofte

After a quick look-over, I'll be sticking with Chrome due to two small UX issues that Chrome does exceedingly well: 1. Despite both having "tabs on top", in Chrome tabs extend all the way to the edge of the screen. In Opera, there's a small

The "any feedback" tab's behavior is a little wonky. And (from what I can tell) that's the feature that paying customers will get, so better get it right! -Having the "any feedback?" text get underlined on hover makes it feel like a normal

The OpenID concept is completely foreign and inaccessible to me, let alone my mother. Log in by giving it a URL? What?

Don't even bother fixing the website for a bit, just run it out of the HN comments here. Throw up an email and you'll have me as a customer.

Regarding branding: I had a huge "woah" moment a couple months ago when I realized (via wikipedia) that hotmail = HoTMaiL = HTML. Not sure how much cash would be involved in that acquisition, but @html.com would be a cool rebrand that I thi
