I've built a couple of applications with Qooxdoo, and found it fairly simple, especially for the one like me, who was never programming any serious JS before. I still dislike javascript, but that's a different story :)

what's horrible about GoDaddy? I used them for domain registration and DNS hosting, and everything went smoothly. The only annoying part, is how they try to sell additional goodies along the domain registration. the front page ladies weren'

what I do for myself, is a local Synology NAS in RAID1 configuration for synchronizing all business documentation, such as offers, invoices, salary statements, etc. Every night the NAS compresses and encrypts the whole archive and pushes a

on my 2.3 android phone, I have this problem with a Comodo cheap certificate
