Love it. Refreshingly addictive. Only complaint is that I can't automatically tell which color I am to start. Maybe I'm missing something, but it's never immediately known - I need to jiggle left and right.

1) Can this just stop until someone presents a direct (and accurate) comparison? You make it sound like it will be a fourth branch of Government. There are several Government Agencies that don't hemorrhage money and actually accomplish wh

I don't know exact details about the content delivery process for loading various pages on Facebook, but this doesn't seem to follow the standard they've set at all. It mixes together parts that make up the various content blocks that loa

None of the movements had any leadership or organized goals whatsoever. In a world where so many have so much access, those that took part in the protests were essentially cut off from many people who wanted to learn more about them.

It's stuff like this that not only makes consumers love LEGO, but also just gives the impression that you want to work there when you grow up. Such a perfect method of satisfying customers while ensuring a steady pool of enthusiastic potent

This comment has motivated me to join in and give it a shot - I was fairly pessimistic that I wouldn't really know how/where to find projects to work with. Thanks for the idea and best of luck in having it move forward.

I actually have never thought of that. Seems like Google has created a ratings system that both the general public uses for comparing apps, developers use to determine place in the Play store (as well as overall experience), and Google us

That game was in the top 5 N64 games sold, routinely hitting the top spot for roughly 3 years [and perhaps a little change]. It was an incredible run, I remember following it in EGM.

This comment appears fairly too frequently in response to this article. At least that gives away all those people who didn't read it.

Don't get carried away, if they truly wanted to absolutely kill off apps, they'd just close their API.

Came into the comments for a fun discussion, left with a great tidbit about my shiny new toy! Thanks a ton, given the unobtrusiveness of the font, I'm terrified at how long I would have gone without noticing that.

I was just thinking of this while coming up the elevator after picking up lunch. Instinctively people reach into their pockets to grab their phones for their 5, 6 or 12 story trip. It's like a natural reaction - I always find this humorous

I guess I see your point, but there typically is a lot going on behind the scenes when $response->write("helloworld"); is executed. There could be several types of validation, xss/csrf protection, maybe storage to a session variable tak

Very nice, I like. Performs real well on my phone (VZW stock GNexus) as well. I am really digging the simplicity and the combination of the typographical syntax and html within the textarea. I wish I could think of some critiques, but I'm

I see this more analogous to walking into an unlocked house. While the doors are all unlocked, it's still illegal to open, enter and search.

Best of luck to you. While not exactly on topic, one little thing I noticed was that that it looks like there's some remainder help text from the template you're using - check out the top right where it says "ADD A MENU IN APPERANCE, MENUS

Well, this wasn't going to be a forum to influence future policy. I think it's pretty cool that this happened - even now my Mom might know what the "AMA" stands for. And great timing to do it during the RNC and steal some buzz away.
