Absolutely. American spend more time communing than ever before. That's a lot of time spent steering that could be spent swiping.

This is hypersensitive, passive aggressive, and paints women as fragile and in need of rescuing from every perceived slight.

Stop apologizing.

Reminds me of I saw a documentary that followed students through med school. One of them was a former mechanic (not to mention a child prodigy and a biker- interesting guy) but he disliked the approach of med school where he would give a wrong diagnosis and his instructors would always tip toe around everyone's feelings and preface criticism with things like 'It's really interesting how you came to that conclusion..." but when he was a mechanic, someone would just say "You're doing it wrong - do it this way." And that's all he wanted - to be told if he was doing something wrong and how to do it right, but there was always this buffer of bullshit politeness in med school.

I love the rss feed: no signing in, no opening tab upon tab upon tab, no silly magazine layout. Just the feed menu on the top of the page, the individual feeds displayed on the bottom- it's perfect.

It's always had great speed, performance, security and has a long history of innovation. When you consider how many features they've created that have become defaults across browsers, everyone is using Opera to one degree or another.

Chrome is a glorified data mining device and just feels overly sterile and corporate, FF grew complacent and has always been buggy, but Opera has everything I need built right into it:torrent client, note taker (very easy to use, super useful since I'l always taking notes on one tutorial or another), selective ad-blocking, the adress field doubles as a search field for any engine I want,it has the most customizable GUI and Opera Unite is awesome for file sharing- a couple friends and I use it to raid each others media collections every few months.

Nice! I walk a couple times a day, but I take shortcuts and routes through parks and woods that are off the map, so to speak. Now I can finally figure out just how far I'm walking.

Good job!

I think in a couple years time, these large, 9 inch readers and tablets are going to look the way those old, chalk board eraser-sized cell phones, or the original ipod looks today. They just seem unwieldy and awkward. I think we'll see a market open up for devices that are larger than a cell phone, smaller than a tablet, like the Dell Streak.

Personally, I have a Sony Pocket Edition and it's the perfect size-about 6'1/4 by 4 1/4', with a 5 inch screen- about as big as paper back. True to it's name, I can put it in my jacket or back pocket and carry it anywhere with ease.

This is precisely why I got a Sony Reader instead.
