I completely protest. This is very disturbing, and a stretch of the law too far. It's obvious that the USA Federal Government, and state and county governments, abuse taxpayer funds and have some ridiculous programs. However, instead of tri

Tsk. Why do web companies even worry about a problem like this? If it were me, I'd simply redirect all Italian web traffic from my site and onto a black page with a short explanation of the problem. And I'd make the switch at 1am. If my com

I'm thinking of getting a TK6000 from NetTalk. Anyone heard anything bad about those? BTW, I've heard attacks that the company is a hack, but then the company responded and said it was publicly traded on the stock market and had board membe

Unless you're providing something pretty substantial and have tremendous traffic numbers to prove it, paywalls just don't work. Rupert Murdoch is trying these now and finding out it's not working well. People just won't use you -- they'll g

My deviations would be: - Use Basecamphq.com and/or ActiveCollab.com for project management and client doc sharing, bug reports, etc. - Use several TK6000.com units, mixed with Grasshopper.com and analog phones, to provide VoIP numbers and

You know, I keep reading this stuff on self-hosting, and it gave me an idea that has nothing to do with this original post. I think you'll like the idea, though. Imagine an AI kind of program that: - determines the cheapest, most capable ho

Consider also posting this on WickedFire forums. But off the top of my head, consider VideoEgg.com because the owner of Twitpic.com (on the Mixergy.com website's interview with that owner) said that he didn't start earning serious ad revenu

I'm so glad I don't play videogames. Too many things in life to do than to waste time with that mess.

I tell you, I can be sympathetic to a letter such as his, to some of the things any of us can easily see are wrong right now in the USA, but of course I do not condone his extreme by any means. However, here was the kicker for me: "But here

Wow. Didn't know that one. I guess you never know who you might be sitting with on a flight these days. I would not have guessed Daniel in a million years as formerly working for IDF.

Still no report yet on which 3 it was. They're probably talking to family members, first. Sad, none the less.

Am I alone here in thinking how troubling this is? Many products are started for a few hundred dollars by people just getting started in programming. Financially punishing them does not solve this problem because they just fold up and shut

What I didn't like about it was that by default it let everyone in my addressbook know many of my other clients. In fact, if you're a freelancer for anything, and you want to know most of the other freelancers that your client has contacted

As a fulltime and fairly successful freelancer now going on my third year, I completely agree with rwhitman here. However, I have something else to offer. The original poster needs to stop thinking of freelancing as the only thing he does.
