Online WYSIWYG editors have frustrated us for a long time. We were fed up so we decided to scratch our own itch and build one from the bottom up. We talked to over two dozen developers to weed out the top problems and then implemented a sol

In Canada, that's pretty normal. They lock you in tight. We're disadvantaged in almost every way when it comes to mobile carriers. Horrible.

I started looking at Backbone.js over the last few days. I started with reading the documentation[1]. It is very well documented and contains a wealth of information. Then I took a look at the Todo example[2] referenced in the documentation

The thing I don't like about Super in Unity is that the feature doesn't learn you're most used applications. I used to use gnome-do and it was awesome for that. For instance, if you want to get to the calculator, I type calc. The first opti
