   I think the inevitable trend for the desktop OS has been moving toward fully web/browser based for many years now. 99% of the time I use my desktop, I'm in the browser. The first thing I click when I boot-up is the browser. ChromeOS makes a

   Well I'm making the assumption that our behaviors, beliefs, values, knowledge, personality etc (the algorithm that is "you") are directly influenced by all of our inputs (visual, auditory, sensory etc). Sure there are other inputs during a

    Pfft, all Google need to do is update Google Voice search on Android to more-or-less clone Siri functionality. Or alternatively they could integrate Siri functionality directly into Google.com search as a kind of contextual search feature w

    The Groupon model IMHO is not sustainable unless they can generate repeat business. It's great a system for securing guaranteed customer numbers. But with such a huge discount to attract them, and with 50% of that going to Groupon coffers,

    Remember when the polarizing search battle was between Google and Yahoo? ...yeah neither do I. These battles do nothing more than establish the two dominate players.

    This. is. fracking. awesome! So much so that I want to give some detailed feedback: * It is very true that all other "feedback widgets" on offer are too complex and full of unnecessary features (on both the publisher and user sides). This o

    This may just be my circle of reach, but I am yet to discover a programmer with decent vision or initiative. Most have really poor business ideas and tend to focus too heavily on the technical problems and pitfalls of an idea rather than th
