What are you proud of. I love that question, and now I use it now whenever I interview people. You can tell pretty quickly whether you can relate to someone depending on how they answer it. A funny question to ask, is if they know what a 41

Cool idea to go along side would be an iPad app, which allows you to compare your actual foot to inside of the shoe. From the bottom, from the side, etc. Would also work for gloves. EDIT: Hell, you even show it on a regular LCD screen. Or a

To be fair, they did address some of these concerns in the latest update of 5. The text is smaller and spacing is much tighter. Definitely an improvement. My biggest concern is that 5 doesn't allow flash apps to access your web cam when it'

I generally buy a hardcopy, or do pdf. I use the kindle to read books primarily (not textbooks, news, periodicals, etc), but I definitely agree that some of the conversions with images aren't great and diagrams aren't always crisp. Does any
