Hm, this was a perfect scenario where I wished the colour of the links would be as "grayed" out as the rest of the down-modded comment. I ended up clicking it and, well, it's what you'd expect. I don't mind the odd guy sneaking in a shamele

I don't think many people stopped using AltaVista because it was too slow. Maybe. Personally I stopped using it when they started throwing pop-unders at me. Or maybe it was because it jumped on to the whole "portal" craze and other SE's t

So ad's in its current shape aren't working. A business model for Facebook that just might: Offer insurance companies to pay for repeated privacy option changes which you have to opt out of. Or heck, just sell a feed to the firehose to them

It seems as if it's mostly tech savvy people quitting Facebook, right? What percentage of this group are web developers? I was talking to a friend of mine who stopped using Facebook a few weeks back, only to sign up for a new account (throw

Sucky or not, I guess one could argue that Photoshop is a somewhat successful tool, I'd say they are not pretending.

Me too. And yeah, you are most likely right (on both accounts). But I couldn't help but throw in the speculation. :)

Rockstar not only used the crack If I recall correctly Myth was not just a cracking group (as in ISO release), they did ripping as well. This basically means that you remove some content from the game (or by other means making the game sm

This is the immediate thought one gets, I can guarantee you that Twitter considered this. It surprises me that parent was deemed insightful. Should what parent suggests be announced I expect it would be in place for about six minutes (+/- 5

Neat! I hope we get to hear some details on this in the future! I was impressed with the video, can I ask what kind of machine the demo was recorded on? :)

Edit (on second thought): They are probably using canvas and not other trickery, then yeah, current versions of IE are pretty screwed. Original post: Since I am not involved in the project, I can't know for sure. But it is presented at a jQ

It's been said before and it will be said again: It's impressive how JavaScript has gone all grown-up on us and what people are creating with it. This is really nifty, a lot of work has gone into it and they have obviously paid attention to

I picked up the HTC Desire a few weeks back and I have never been happier with a phone, I would sincerely recommend it. It runs Android 2.1 out of the box. http://www.htc.com/www/product/desire/overview.html I have to say, though, it actu

It's getting a bit boring to say it, but Google is not a search company. They provide search to sell ads (doesn't matter how they started out), so while I agree with the threat conclusion, I doubt Facebook will create the next general pur

I read it as she was being sued for that amount, not that it was the annual fee. I'd guess the extra dollars would be administrative fees etc etc.
