Worth pointing out that this is pretty similar to tab groups available in Firefox, with added commands when right clicking on a tab to move to a group.

I've tried a dozen different note taking tools, the only one I've stuck with is Workflowy[1]. I think it just suited my style of note taking/todo list making/hierarchical lifestyle right from the start. I would like to see better Android ap

I absolutely agree, I am not complaining that stories like this aren't covered and I'm certainly not trying to trivialise the events yesterday, I just think it's worth being reminded that events like this are almost an everyday occurrence i

Unless I'm mistaken, it certainly wouldn't stop patent trolls, who buy/keep patents precisely so they can use them. The only thing it would stop is companies holding patents for defensive reasons, who have no intention of actively pursuing

Well it is no wonder they had 'Too many methods'[1] in their Facebook android application if they've packed all the features into their facebook client, and left their messaging and launcher applications as thin wrappers around the core app

Just thought I would give my impressions of how this might go down if you interviewed for the large start-up I work for. (I'm speaking from my own experience, not on behalf of the company in any way.) 1.Why? You're resume will be glanced

The "I don't buy that Asperger's Syndrome thing." line was part of a long quote from his friend, all highlighted in blue for some reason. I think the author does buy it, but I agree that this story is extremely rude and I have no idea why t

I think this is the first time I've been genuinely impressed with a Chrome Experiment. They've recreated Super Monkey Ball entirely inside the browser, with the option of using a device as a controller. Certainly an interesting concept for

Good news for you then! I used to use GR every day, then on a whim I switched the free newsblur version. To be perfectly honest, it doesn't offer me a lot more than GR did, but after hitting the 60 feed limit a couple of times I've now gone

The addition operator takes a collection of numbers, and add the first two? Given the lack of documentation, I find this extremely misleading and I couldn't recommend this library.

Misleading headline. They blocked it for a few hours until n people complained. There was more legitimate use than expected, so they unblocked it again.

I think that's because we've been linked to a non-secure page by https instead of http. I would have thought the servers should forward you on to the correct page without a cert error though

I have a similar document, that I use to plan pretty much everything from personal projects, to shopping lists, to restaurants I want to try out, etc. I found google docs to be pretty unmaintainable, and have settled on using https://workf

Thanks for the suggestions, I've subscribed to Freakonomics and Radiolab.

I love the News Quiz, so I'll give Wait Wait a go, and I'll give This American Life and Radiolab a go, they both look great

Very interesting. Being from the UK, I've never listened to NPR before (aside from the Tiny Desk series), can anyone recommend some good weekly shows worth listening to?

I love Peep Show. They're currently airing the newest season, and I'm impressed by it so far, it's managed to live up to previous seasons, although it would be nice if they pushed the storyline a bit further from the same 'two dudes in a fl

Similarly, I bought WebStorm. I'm happy enough with Eclipse and at work we have a few plugins for the build system, but I'm not a fan of Aptana, so WebStorm seemed like a nice IDE for JS related projects, and in the 75% sale it was $12 or s

Louie, Season 3 stands out to me as the best show of the year. Every 'section'(between advert breaks) is extremely well written, directed, and even orchestrated. Each 'section' feels like an operatic movement, with each episode being extrem

The title is extremely misleading. It makes it sound as if Mumford & Sons have been interviewed saying they don't want people to lend their CDs to each other. What has actually happened is their label included some small print on their
