I wouldn't have thought it could get faster until I actually tried the new search. The difference is quite noticeable. Now I'm back at the same point thinking they'll never be faster than this! :)

Thanks for the heads up. I just looked into my account and noticed that the dialer access number (347...) that GV is using changed for me. It seems like they are adding more numbers as it grows. What would entirely defeat the myfaves trick

Actually, I had no idea this violated their terms of use. It's the only reason I signed up for T-Mobile in the first place! :) I've been using it for just over two weeks now without issue.

It is possible, I have my phone set up like this now. Use one of your MyFaves for your GV number and another one for the number GV dials out to (347-234-5001). Then just forget about it and use your phone like normal- all incoming and outgo

No, I'm not looking into getting into ecommerce as I have neither the time (I start my masters program in two weeks) nor the money (I start my masters program in two weeks). Just thought it might make interesting conversation.

I was intentionally vague; I had mostly your first point in mind but was also curious to hear of things that are uneconomical to buy/sell online. I asked the question more out of idle curiosity than anything else, maybe something here spark

You make a good point about controlling the delivery of a tangible good. That may get around some of the regulation that applies to money transmitters, but either way I think this type of business is going to require some rather expensive

Exactly. The OP may want to look into what happened to E-Gold.

I agree. I've been using it for differential equations- it's easier to jump into than Mathematica (I haven't had time to get into the syntax yet).

I really recommend http://www.mathxl.com . I've used it for calc 3 and linear algebra in place of physically being in those classes. It will walk you through examples and keeps track of your weakness to review later. It seems to be powere

Ultimately, I think Google Docs is an attempt at diversifying revenues. Eventually, there will be a push to charge more people for the service. Even though Google is a behemoth in advertising, it must be a bit worrisome to derive 95-99% of

Thanks. I saw the link after posting and saw that the author had occasionally had some trouble in the last second (due to swoopo's handling of all the simultaneous bids it seems). I wonder how much this will skew any results. Also, there ar

I'm not a programmer either, but as someone with an econ undergrad degree going into grad school both the data/analysis and the method of obtaining it are really of interest to me. If anyone can point me in the right direction in terms of w

Isn't this browser OS concept essentially what the Crunchpad aims to be? Edit: Of course, the crunchpad is also the hardware component, making it more all-in-one.

For those with more technically inclined audience, something like http://domai.nr could work. I would not use a gimmicky domain for a general audience though (does anyone still remember the original delicious domain?).

Thanks. I've been tempted to get the G1. Right now I'm waiting to see if some of the other Android phones come out relatively soon (by the end of summer)- if not, I'll go with the G1.
