There are still parts of India where there is tremendous social respect for "well educated" people. This can be easily seen if you observe Matrimonial ads. It would be clearly mentioned that people are looking for someone with college degre

I liked your "Git for everyone idea". But thinking about it a bit more, this idea can be split into: 1. Collaborative editing - Google Docs already allows this to some extend. 2. Document history - Tools like MS Word already does this to so

The issue with the OP's implementation and yours is that not all browsers implement navigator.onLine the same way. For example, if you run the jSFiddle on Firefox, you would see that the status does not change even if you pull out the cable

Would not a better solution be to ping a resource on the application server rather than an external resource (in this case Google)? If the resource can't be pinged, it means either the user is offline or the app is down which are essentiall
