   An interesting idea, the pricing (on both buy and sell side) should be much more obvious, I couldn't find anything besides the "as much as $350 for renting your car out for 15 hours". Are the prices based on the quality of car or does ever

   That's all well and good, but I'm one of the owners of Beerby and I can tell you for sure it's on Amazon EC2 :)

   I think you're on the right trail, but it's still confusing why this would take the number one ranking over the root domain? Maybe Google thought the entire domain had moved?

    Until TechCrunch (or someone?) posted an article pointing this flaw out last week the bug was not marked as critical. I think the drama is the way a lot of people feel about seeing what seems like an obviously critical bug as something goo

    I enjoyed this book and couldn't put it down, but was sad to find out the sequel was not about getting vengeance, which would have been awesome.

    Yes, a lot of things are stated from "common sense", but that doesn't mean they are true ("Reading in the dark will make your eye sight bad", "Going out without a coat will make you sick", etc...). I grew up eating nothing but TV dinners an

    Kind of a dearth of facts here... "The biggest reason is by only fueling your body with shit, you’re also fueling your brain with shit" I'd like to see some kind of evidence to support that. I'd be all for preparing the meal he suggests, bu

    Castle Ridge Rd, while a dead end, also is a trunk that has several branches. It seems like only dead-ends that lead no where else get this width.

    Here's the only example I have: http://www.google.com/search?q=facebox+value+text&hl=en Based on my search history I've clicked efreedom links several times, but currently the stackoverflow link is the top one for those searches now.

    I'd love to get more insight into how Google fixes problems like this, like hopefully you don't just hard code a multiplier for stackoverflow.com or a negative one for the spam sites?

    Fair criticism, I know used cars, not branding unfortunately (I've always seen a smiling car face in the logo!). If you are experienced with branding feel free to contact me.

    Given the prices I see for eating out in Europe (I remember a chain pizza place in London was like 20 pounds for a single pizza), it's probably more out of necessity, we also have lost most of the cultural trappings of a slow meal. In Ameri

    I'm not sure I'd want the opinion of someone who is willing to waste their time talking to a complete stranger on pretenses that seem like an obvious scam just because they offered to buy them coffee.
