It's pretty slow compared to Twitter's own search. I'm seeing 9 minute index times.

We already have the first two, there won't ever be TV popup ads, and if by social media you mean Hulu then we already have that. I fail to see what you're saying.

Does Amazon have to improve their user experience? Amazon.com is one of the most-used sites on the planet, and you can download any mp3 from its product's page. I use it more than I use iTunes, at this point.

Which is why I love my Mac so much. Most of what I need it does without my worrying about. At the same time, I can rip it up and change anything I'd like to if I want, and there are communities to help me get it changed. When I do need a

I taught myself to stop worrying about the news and gave up RSS entirely.

I'd like to know your thoughts on it.

Is that really the ethos you see Apple emanating? Because I've always seen the opposite. One of the things that I thought coolest about Apple back when I was on Windows were the people who talked about installing Leopard on a Powerbook and

I guess that's what makes it hard for me to comment on this. I don't really care much for flexibility or variety or freedom. I want something to work as well as it possibly can, and don't worry about tweaking it unless the tweaks make it ru

I've never really used middle click, so that doesn't inconvenience me at all.

by unalone 17y ago
What do you need a middle-click for? I used to only use it for scrollballs, but multitouch killed my need for that.

I can run any application on my 1st gen touch. Some things run a bit more slowly for me, but they work. Most things work perfectly. Games sometimes exceed me, but they still look perfect on the screen. Apple's not stupid. If they up the s

I said looks like less of a wussy lineup. The Macbook has always had a much cheaper feel to it compared to the Pro. It doesn't look incredible now—I don't like how non-contrasted it is—but it looks better.

Huh, I didn't realize that. I was actually referring to it in terms of visuals: the old plastic Macbooks look very dated.

Hm? The aluminum Macbook still exists. It's just classified under the Macbook Pro line. 13", right? Think of the polycarbonate case as Apple's attempt to make a product that's affordable as possible. I was expecting them to phase out the pl

Well, it handles text/audio/video chats. But text chatting is still a big part of it: Right now I'm using it for group work, because it has a great filesharing system. It's very flexible, but I think it still counts under the instant messag

The new iMac looks nice, the Macbook looks like less of a wussy addition to the lineup, the Mac mini still looks like a Mac mini. What I'm excited about is that mouse. Multitouch scrolling is the feature that I love most about my Macbook Pr

Well, I upvoted it because it looks like a neutral thread that'll have the gonna-happen-no-matter-what Apple conversation held in a neutral light. There's a rumor that the plastic Macbooks are being redesigned, which might mean something ri

Huh! If you don't count Skype as IM then I agree with you. That's my primary IM at the moment. But isn't that IM?

Neither IM nor Facebook is dying. Email's not dying either, but your countersuggestions are absurd.

We've known this was coming for a while. Fake Steve and John Gruber are blogbitching each other about it.

Yes, but we're talking very small screens here, with very little room for design. When you can design any application to run at 800x600, then maybe you don't fill every screen but you have enough space to do what you want. When you're dea

Fake Steve Jobs illustrated the biggest Android problem: When your operating system is designed to be modified for each individual phone, and each phone runs a modified version of the system, then you can't reliably develop for it in the wa

I usually don't pay for games. World of Goo is one of the exceptions. When a small company shows they're savvy and doing a good thing, it becomes worth my money. When you loop every gamer who downloads games into the category of "pirating g

Merlin was trying to convey everything in the press release without coming across as stiff. He succeeded. I didn't get a "fake controversy" vibe from his writing—what exactly did you mean by that?

I don't get the hostility against words like "bullshit" in formal pieces. Bullshit is a good word that many people understand. It means something. Properly used, it takes the place of a dozen shittier words. Social customer relationship ma

The curious thing is that the only reason iPod classic sales are declining is because Apple beat its own product with the iPhone and iPod touch. They're their own best competition.
