+1. I am frustrated when I see discussions and demands made in the media that are fomented by SEO and marketers. They are strip miners of communities, who happily exploit loopholes for profit until no trust remains in the system.

Well, upvoting a story isn't the same as "like"ing an article.

Could somebody make a custom shell for Android that makes it feel like Palm?

The "bubble" isn't such a bad thing with software, IMO. Running a malicious application has much worse consequences than accessing an unpopular webpage.

Yeah, I feel like I've tainted my work computer's browser history. :)

The same comment, from two different accounts. Both related to Google products. Is this the 2012 version of "Netcraft confirms that BSD is dying"? solsenNet 32 minutes ago | link This looks... erm ... neat. A "sophomore OpenGL term project"

Succinct, powerful, but readable syntax, but without the feelings of guilt associated with spending significant time in a high level language. At least it's that way for me. :)

Really? In that tileset, bodies of water are like toner cartridge death. I bet my printouts will start looking banded and faded after a few dozen pages of it.
