Can you be _that_ specific when requesting service through Amazon Mechanical Turk? For instance, I need college students (or recent graduates) in Michigan who have taken courses at this set of Universities in the past 3 years?

You have a point. I'm fairly jaded when it comes to anything that's "free". Any thoughts about Ipod alternatives? Maybe $25 Itunes gift cars or something of that nature?

I'm actually testing the waters with Facebook Ads right now. I only worry that people will come to the site, say "Oh, they don't have any reviews. I'll come back later." and then never come back. Any thoughts on how to use Adwords (or Fa

"I did notice that PHP developers favor SVN to git..." I can attest to this. I spend a lot of time working with PHP with a lot of different people, and almost every single one of them uses SVN for deployment. I'm not sure if this good pra

I'm personally happy that Microsoft didn't shake things up too much with Windows 7. At it's core Vista was a good operating system, it just needed a LOT of polish. I'd almost be happier to see smaller, incremental releases of Windows (tha

With the addition of a plugin or two and a sane Apache configuration, Wordpress can handle some pretty extreme loads. This is not to say that it's perfect, but rather that performance doesn't have to be a concern if you know what you're do

Even in 1998, I think that this would still be considered an eye-sore. Well done though!

I agree with the comment about going for a long run. I always seem to be in a better state of mind after a few miles. If I'm still having issues maintaining focus, then I try to make a list of everything I'd like to accomplish today. By

The remote for my car has a very weak signal strength, so sometimes when I forget where I park I place the remote underneath my chin and press up. My head (skull + fluid) acts as an antenna and voila! There's my car! You might look like a

Thanks for the insight. I've actually found a fairly comprehensive listing of colleges in the US, so formatting the submission for MT would probably be the toughest part. On a similar note, has anyone ever had any success with having end-u
