   Why do employees (and apparently CEOs) of online tech publications always seem to have so much trouble with basic English grammar/spelling? "I honestly absolutely no idea what we should have done differently" "We work immensely had to produ

   I applaud people who are self starters and love to create. I'm one of them. But why the importance on the short amount of time the project was made in? (I assume you're trying to communicate it as important because of your headline.) Does

   I'm a Hulu Plus subscriber and $7.99/mo with ads for TV is still way better than $50+/mo with ads for TV.

    Sounds like Hulu Plus customers won't be required to be cable subscribers, right? Can anybody confirm this? If this is the case, than this move doesn't really matter as any free watchers can simply start paying $8/mo (instead of $50+ for c

    Regardless of the nitty gritty details, I think the most important part about something like this is that places like Grand Rapids are thinking of this. They're putting money, time, resources, and energy into helping propel this kind of en
