   Speaking of names, I own doqdoq.com (read as: dokdok - it's the sound you make when you type in your keyboard) and I am open to ideas. Email me if interested. You have to admit, it "sounds" like DuckduckGo but easier to type. It would also

   Thank you for this. A few months ago, I quit my job (developer) to pursue something else that is totally new to me. I am on training right now and I have never been so relaxed in my working life. The job also allows me to travel a lot (I do

   Also cheap plastic lighters. I didn't expect it. It's probably because birds are attracted to "colorful" objects.

   I have been doing side jobs since college - around 2003/2004 until now. All of my clients are not from Elance/Rent-a-coder/etc. Most of them however sent me an email from a "local" community site of web developers. I always tell me clients

   How is Apple doing it? Microsoft even did not get away with IE with Windows.

   What about in laptops? I could easily find a laptop that is half the price of a Macbook Pro but with the same specs.

    I wish they would sell Mac OS X that run on non-apple hardware. I would save so much money and love apple again.

    I am from the Philippines. All of my friends (in Twitter) speak in their dialects unless they want/intend something to be read by other people who only understand English.

    It is very sad to hear that someone in his status says things like that. I wonder how the employees at Kaspersky feel about his statement.

    I remember reading news that it doesn't have LAN play? Is this still true?

    This is nice. I remember this game. I got interested into hacking and the web development because of this game! I remember that for CnC games, you could just edit the .ini file and you could basically change everything in the game. I ran a

    I agree with you. I am assuming that he does not have kids yet? So do it for the experience. I did a similar thing. I quit my job at a big company and right now I am in Norway for a few months. I am from the Philippines and believe it or no

    Hehe. I am from Asia (Philippines), but in Norway right now for a short training. Things are a little bit unpredictable right now (schedule, etc.) for me but I find your project very interesting. It would be good if I can find something els

    I use a lot of Google Chrome URL box search. I find it very convenient and now hate Firefox and Safari for using a different search box. I still use Firefox for development though. But Chrome on almost everything else.

    A notebook. I have a 8.5 x 11 notebook that suits my big handwriting. I use 1 page a day. EDIT: Moleskines are too expensive for me.

    That'd be the day :D Drawings for comments is absolutely a great idea. Sometimes I wish I could "draw" something in my code (Arrows, bookmarks, quick diagrams, etc. beside comments). Think github with this kind of feature.

    I tried the GUI tools. But what I love about the web interface is the ability to CTRL + F anything on the page. And I can also "copy" any text I want in it.

    Maybe it's just me. But sometimes I draw diagrams describing how the code will work and how the methods interact with each other. A quick drawing with a pencil and paper or on a whiteboard will do. It helps me understand how the over-all sy
