Yes, but you wouldn't have to use tilt scrolling in those conditions. Tilt-scrolling would be disabled by default. When the conditions were appropriate, you could opt to enable it simply by holding your finger on the screen for two second

I'm always glad to see developments in energy monitoring, but every time I see a tool that monitors a home's power meter it just leaves me wanting to see more. It seems that what we really need is a cheap electrical socket monitoring device

Yeah for sure. I've noticed this technique before in some great comedians - for example Andy Kaufman and Will Ferrell. In fact - that was what really got me about Kaufman's bits - the utter lack of blinking. I love how it makes the chara

So true. The bane of every creative thinker is the crack of the precious idea. To keep my thinking loose, I keep a blog where I purge all my ideas both great and stupid in order to get them out of my head. The more ideas I get out onto th

I agree that the title is misleading. But I think his view is really important. Or maybe better said, it's really important that a great man like Penrose comes out and unequivocally makes this statement to generations who have too often b

I too developed really bad wrist pain - mine was from too much autocad and solidworks. My secrets were to: 1. Use a good chair and keyboard tray. always. 2. train my left hand to mouse and switch off 3. use an upright mouse. http://www.

This is very cool thank you. I posted earlier today about the need for a better rating system than the five star system. I'm really glad to see you working on a great solution. Thanks!

akamaka, I can understand how my blog might come across as self-important - I know I can be over the top, but that's part of the idea (see the tag line of my blog). The thing is, I'm writing for a general audience from the point of a genera

I like this idea a lot. I also think that once you have some tags, you could extrapolate which movies are likely to fall into those tag categories by seeing which movies people browsed on the site at the same time. You can get this inform

Twitter is the “Atari Pong” of real-time messaging services? I remember how exciting it was back in February when I started realizing what it meant to have a real-time messaging protocol. http://www.thinksketchdesign.com/2009/02/25/design/

That's true, but their entire model is still built on a database built up of 5-discrete-value ratings. True, it does seem that they place an emphasis on reviewers' similar tastes, but they are still crippled by the poor resolution of their

The funny thing about the 5 star rating system is that it's completely the wrong model for many situations in which it's used. It originated from sites like slashdot where, because everyone had to read the same front page of content, it m

To give one answer, I wrote a blog post that I think is interesting about Twitter as a protocol. This is ringing more and more true as new apps are created that use Twitter's tagging structure as a backbone for their app's data structure a
