Depends on the ToS. Also, it's bad business no matter how you justify it.

The point of the article (which is secondarily a hit on Dan Lyons) is that Motorola had Google over a $13B barrel – the exact opposite conclusion to Dan Lyons' piece. As a kind of aside, Gruber is defending M.G. Seigler against ad hominem

Building a JS front end only makes sense to me if you're leveraging a complete UI kit on the client side to ease handling of commonly-encountered UI problems: sortable, filterable, lists; autocomplete; tokenized inputs; etc. The hassle of b

Katas are such an apt analogy for any skill building. Japanese martial arts (in the past 100 years anyway) are a mature game system. The ranking and achievement systems might seem basic from the outside, but there is plenty of nuance (and

Yes, migration from Exchange doesn't work well because of the fundamental difference between search vs. sort. I'll never use Exchange again, personally. It feels like time traveling back to 2002. I'd never use 365, but I know a lot of pe

As long as we're OT, I want to address your other article: http://blog.williamhilsum.com/2011/07/my-take-on-google-apps... Using Google Apps with Outlook is a recipe for disaster. I use Google Apps IMAP (for local backups) via Apple Mai

Does Microsoft offer migration services directly? I'm sure that's a huge requirement for most enterprise and SMB customers. While the partners are going to lose their hosting windfall, they still have a chance to build a third party servi

I agree. There are many reasons why Google may have rejected the offer to bid jointly – and the offer's terms aren't clear at all. Also, posting private intercompany emails is unprofessional, even in response to a misleading tweet from yo

I've done some work with the 2.0 beta. It's really easy to drop sproutcore into an embedded panel on an existing application now. I prefer the eventing conventions in sproutcore over the alternative – purely a matter of preference. I'm l

It's hard to assign meaning to those kinds of code words. After all, they're specifically chosen not to betray their meaning. I know that the Apache were upset by the implications, and there is some historical irony lurking in it, but I wo

I know a few people in HFT. They are the kind of people who can do just about anything pretty well. The kind of people who switch to Dvorak key bindings on a whim, just to make the day a bit more challenging.

This opened my eyes a bit. I am a walking, talking git anti-pattern today. I'm mostly on a two-man team, so I can get away with it. I'm definitely going to start thinking more about a clean history on master. What are some other best-pra

She certain can, but she also bears some responsibility for using the service. For instance, I wouldn't use it unless I had everything from my garlic press to my furniture and space insured to the hilt, and was sure my policy covered these

I don't really think you need an expert to anticipate this exact sort of problem with AirBnB. It's precisely the reason that I and many others never use the service – it's wildly obvious that this risk existed from the start. Handling thi

The nagging issue for me is the extremely unusual eloquence of the victim. I wanted to believe this was just another online echo-chamber shit-show until I read her blog posts and found EJ to be a level-headed, articulate and eminently reas

I like the auditor's take on this: "I see no data protection issues for these requests, data protection only applies to consumers not businesses so there should be no issues with this information." The Data Protection Act applies to individ

You ought to say more about security. I would never touch a document solution that doesn't include technical details about its security measures and credentials.

Even though this has a bit of blue vs. red lurking in it, I like overstock.com a lot more after learning about Patrick Byrne claiming that Wall Street are like "Sith Lords".

Also, the idea of centralized privacy preferences has been around since at least the late 90's, and was abandoned in 2006. See: http://www.w3.org/P3P/

I have tried nearly every offering in this space. RightSignature is by far the best solution I've seen. Echosign is a distant second place, IMO.

I agree. I only use desktop email to ensure that I have a copy saved locally. For the workgroup that I support, I give them Mailplane for Google Apps. I find that some users just can't get past the idea of having a "shortcut" on their des

With social networks, what really matters is how users think they should use the graph. It matters whether it's a personal or professional graph. That's why social networks are "balkanized" across personal/professional lines. I find G+ esp

Google has always favored many-to-many "tags" over one-to-many "folders". Gmail brought that distinction to the mainstream. Circles are really just tags on the user object, in the end.
