While I also agree that Google's search results have gotten better, I just feel (this is very subjective of course) that they should be far better today than they currently are. I don't think they're leaps and bounds better and I think they

While the Kinect is very cool technology indeed, it seems a bit deceiving to me when they trumpet a peripheral as the fastest selling electronics device. Were it not for the install base of Xbox 360s, it would not likely have such an rapid

Fair enough. I thought it was an interface bug, but that is a solid reason. I'll keep that in mind for my next app.

Congrats! It looks great! A couple nitpick things I noticed which may be helpful: 1. When you go to the pricing page ( https://www.appointmentreminder.org/pricing ) the top navigation disappears. 2. You probably want the email address in th

In my opinion, this is one of the most interesting questions on here. Facebook's default method of identification is and always has been (since thefacebook.com times) an email address. If they are launching their own email client, it will b

With all due respect, I think you need to step off of your high horse and realize that there is value created, even in crappy apps that spam. Sure it's not as "beautiful" as a well done app that took many man hours of creation/polishing, et

CNN's crappy rip of the image cuts off everything past October losing some of the most important data (the lead up to the holidays and Christmas Day). They also cut off the months at the bottom so there's no way to accurately tell what is h

I could really see them converging in the not too distant future when Lion is released, bringing more touch friendly concepts like the Launchpad to OS X.

True that you can install any app you want with Android, but on many devices, the Android Market is simply not available. It depends on the device and whether or not they've gotten the blessing from Google. So yes, they are open in that you

On a Mac, there are a few options for Dvorak baked in. One is Dvorak with Qwerty shortcuts. So Ctrl-Z,C,V still work as expected. Edit: Technically, they're Command-Z,C,V on a Mac.

I'm sure part of it is that employers don't like to lay people off before Christmas as it makes them seem heartless, so they queue up and dump a large group after the holidays.

I absolutely love it. It truly has changed huge portions of my life. I initially bought it somewhat second guessing myself thinking I was buying an over-expensive toy that I would regret, but have changed my mind drastically. Now someone

While I'm certainly not a fan of this like most commenters here, am I the only one that is of the opinion that instead of hating Apple, we should hate the broken US Patent system? While it disgusts me that they are able to patent these thin

Having something stolen from your company and having a product you just purchased, which is 100% refundable not work exactly as you had hoped, are hardly the same thing as far as I'm concerned. Further, had Jobs decided to just let that inc

I'll give you a few examples. I was an iPhone user for 2.5 years and switched to an Android phone a month and a half ago. (thank you Google I/O!) First, there are 2 calendar apps and 2 email apps. One calendar app is just called "calendar"

Going one step further, it would be very nice to be able to supply information to different users based on their group. This is another thing which is lacking in Facebook. In fact it is something which is currently lacking from every social

Good point. One of the major issues with patent law is that it is stuck into the U.S. legal system and ultimately governed at the highest level by the Supreme Court who are technologically incapable. They do not have a scientific background

I think this was very misinterpreted. The question was, "There's a rumor saying there will be a Mac App Store and no software without authorization from Apple will run on Mac OS X. Is that true?" link - http://www.macstories.net/news/steve

While I certainly agree with you, I would also point out that OSX is also a very mature platform whereas iPhone OS is in its infancy. So one could argue that OSX does not need as much hype to spur development, and since it has been around f

The one thing Coda or any other GUI based editor is really nice for is CSS. While it's rare at I have to delve into that stuff, it is really nice to have amenities like a color picker and a visual representation of the colors instead of jus
