Isn't there a culture difference between Korea and America/Canada/England/France/Russia? Perhaps there are more variables at stake here than just whether or not it's a person's real name. It's neat that this didn't work in Korea, but that d

Here's a link to his linkblog. http://static.scripting.com/myReallySimple/linkblog.html It's great, except it's completely unusable due to it being a huge download of a page full of disparate links with no organization other than by date.

The real question is: does Dropbox need to compete with Google? To me, Dropbox does everything I need it to do. It's great as a backup in case I lose my local copy, it's fast, it's well-priced, I still have tons of storage left on my accoun

We don't have numbers, so this is all speculation. Still, I think we can agree it's a neat idea that definitely deserves exploration. With regards tot he transmission question: my car (and many others) allow me to select the gear even thoug

I almost never FTP stuff except when I have to get a single, unimportant file somewhere or if we're sharing stuff between friends' houses. Springloops has a useful deploy-by-ftp feature. When you commit a change using their Subversion host

This will no longer be a problem if all cars are self-driving. Then, they can just up the limit incrementally. Possibly even to something much faster than a human could do manually.

I don't have a problem charging a menial fee to tourists, so long as it's completely transparent where that money is going. The last thing a country should wish on its image is the tourist money going to military invasions and the like.

As a Canadian citizen, I am close enough to the United States already. It's great that they want to share their landmarks, friendly people, and history. The problem is the gatekeepers AKA the TSA and border police. A quick google search on

I love the idea of duplicating anything put on Twitter onto an open-source system just in case we need to route around them. I'm not well-versed in the FOSS solutions available, but I think http://status.net/ looks good. It's what powers
