I like "a boutique network of developers & designers". Sure, other explanatory text is welcome, but in general I hate the american way of writing prose which actually says very little.

I see no reason why they wouldn't provide you with the support service after you've upgraded. But do take notice that the upgrade process itself might fail if you have problems. Therefore, it's a big gamble to only upgrade after problems ap

Flash isn't dead like kayluhb pointed out Mike Chambers post: http://www.mikechambers.com/blog/2011/11/11/clarifications-o... True, "if you can't deal with it..." approach is rude. But it's the truth. And Tom did explain the situation in

Just in case you didn't know it: Firefox release stages are: nightly, aurora, beta, final. Had to look this one up. Lessons learned from this: always describe in release notes with at least one sentence what you are releasing.

Give it some time. Likely Pages is dead simple to implement compared to pseudonymity. Possibly it was made by "secondary" team while the main tackles the pseudonymity. G+ has not been live that long. Let it grow and evolve.

It's typical for a company's employees to like the FB page and status updates. Toyota has 317,00 employees.

Agreed. Further text would only take away the power of the simplistic, yet describing, design what teamtreehouse.com has going on.

There's a difference between inspiration and copying. It is also bad marketing if you don't have enough personal image to be identifiable.

So perhaps they are building more like a platform and releasing it when it's ready? Who knows. Ripping content out of a youtube might be denied in some EULA so maybe Dropbox just doesn't want to get involved due to legal issues. In any case

This got me looking at the careers page as well. "really nice office" isn't one where you can't stretch your legs forward without banging them to a fellow employee. Seriously, you have space, use it wisely.

I received that message as an email and found it to be annoying. It wasn't that long ago when they sent their previous message and this one doesn't cut to the chase either, doesn't sound professional and fails to convince me.

I have always wondered why people are so shamed of their past emotions. Ex-girlfriends are part of your life, part of who you are even if you don't want to admit it. I suspect it to be somehow a configurable feature or you can always remove

Let me be the first one to say that this is one of the reasons why complete offline mode for Google Docs will be a big thing. For companies, Google Docs does not currently solve all the needed requirements. Good writeup though.

There's huge difference between easy access costing nothing extra and "knowing what you are doing" and 259GBP / year. For you, the setup you have chosen suits probably very well but please understand that it's not for everybody. I bet there
