Yep for something like this I'm definitely for a text interface, and I had to do the same with a quick php cli script using yahoo's api. For some reason weather.com just keeps getting slower and slower. I switched to accuweather f

There is a very simple rule of thumb when it comes to hosting. If your site/business matters then never put it on shared hosting. It's always bad, overselling is what makes it possible to have those low prices. In terms of the n

Couldn't they just have copied those features later? Sure they might have been later to the market but pushing features out first doesn't mean you will win. I understand the anger and I absolutely think it's unethical but som

I've got hand it to them for smashing six world records . Very impressive. I have to think that if you've accomplished that then you will have some problems on the technical side that would have been very difficult to anticipate.

Correct, technology like Glass has to be socially acceptable before there can be adopted by the masses. It's a chicken and egg problem but then again I've never used a Bluetooth headpiece.

My only recommendation would be to use the new password api going forward and password_compat for versions less than 5.5. I don't see a php version requirement in their docs though.

Yahoo is free to do whatever they want. I think that's obvious. My opinion from the sidelines reflects what I think it looks like. Certain things become the norm, for e.g. someone finds $100K and returns it, the norm is to pay them a n
