We are doing all we can; no, I'm serious - this isn't a cookie cutter, "Here's $nice_boilerplate_response, now go away" thing. We are severely limited by law (both US and international) about shoving updates down people's throats when they

They probably didn't email it because people would then complain of spam. The industry standard is to grab an email address to make only a one-time notification. All this is irrelevant anyway; Wakemate will get crap no matter if they remain

Amazing! It's funny how if Wakemate hadn't screwed up, the world wouldn't be justified in demanding periodic updates! I mean, do you really ask Posterous to give you bi-weekly updates? I just hope the Wakemates realize that (a) the bar is s

The link says: "Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and Adobe currently support VP8, and Safari and IE may at some point." Microsoft has already confirmed that IE9 will support VP8. See: http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/bloggingwindows/arch

The IEBlog (and all other MSDN blogs) is down for maintenance and cannot take comments, which is why the post is on Windows Blog. People can voice feedback via the comments on the blog post should they choose to :)

What you described was not the 'thaw' scenario, but rather, what credit freeze is supposed to do, by design. The 'thaw' scenario would kick in if you were to legitimately apply yourself for an auto loan at a Hyundai dealership in Florida, a

Huh? Quirks mode is never going to change; by definition, it is to maintain backwards compatibility. If a webpage was coded back in 2000, we don't want to break those pages simply because a more modern version of the browser is available. S

Agreed, great work embed.ly; it's a pity there's no way of even knowing they have a blog if you navigate to http://embed.ly/ though. Hence, this detailed blog post is basically undiscoverable unless you already knew it existed.
