Ok. I don't know what you are talking about. But everyone on the internet right now is talking about generic plastic bumpers (like a glorified condom) for your phone. Not plastic materials found within the iPhone or developed by Apple. If y

I remember after the first tech bubble burst back around 2001 a lot of (young / male) disillusioned devs abondended the internets to become bike messengers (although they returned to blog about it naturally). It was an awesome read - if any

So you're saying that when my fabricator in China mass produces these plastic keychains I sell, that a % of the $0.05 they charge per unit they are actually paying out as licensing overhead?

Reminds me of my car... it's a 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser. I found the owner's manual online and it's surprising what was expected of an automobile owner 30 years ago: lubricating the chassis, servicing the oil filter (not changing, but disma

Somewhere I read a quote that went "if you take the top 100 most popular websites on the internet... 90 of them use PHP". I don't have the source and I don't know if it's still true.. but you can add Yahoo, WordPress, PhotoBucket, SourceFor

Nothing. I looked at KISSMetrics ages ago when the private beta was first leaked. Similar to crazyegg it focuses on a single aspect of analytics, in this case conversion funnels. So it is simple to setup funnels for every possible conversio

To understand... are you expecting Google to enter every possible search term into your search box and index the results? BTW, your site _requires_ javascript = SEO fail.

They'll only float if their lungs are fully inflated with air (from your link and my own experience). If they've been choking on water and are now drowned (as opposed to drowning) I would assume that's no longer the case.

In regard to 3... How do you know when the drowning person is unconscious... that would be when they dip under and don't come back up? They're lungs would be full of water then? So you would have to swim down to them, pull them to dry land

I'll add... it really makes sense for mobile/webkit where you can depend a lot more on CSS3 and most images are small icons or tiles. I've seen Apple use it a lot in their mobile web apps.

Flywheels come up every once in a while (I remember seeing them for the first time about 20 years ago).... but I wager they'll never become mainstream. The problem is the more energy they store, the more explosive they become. http://en.wi
