How do you middle-click?

I'd like to know too. All I know is that twitter is not even available via SMS in my country and I imagine a lot of others too but I can't find a list anywhere.

thanks. Is it one twitter account per customerfind account? Also I would love to be able to avoid following certain twitter accounts. Do you think there is a possibility you could add a field to input twitter accounts we don't want to follow? It would be useful to have some fields to follow only twitter accounts tagged with certain locations too, for eg, London, Berkshire, Brighton etc.

I would have to see one to test its durability and see how awkward it is to use. Nevertheless he is selling a stake in the Split Ring Key Blank Intellectual Property (patent) and gotten plenty of press.

I don't have a problem with offering DMs. The recipient has the option to opt-out as a protest if they don't like it. Your stats will also show users if it is more bad than good presumably. You could also let users send an initial DM requesting whether or not the recipient would like to get further DMs. The main reason why you cannot afford to not offer DMs is another service will, and they then could scoop your customers.

Just to be clear, I think the 'learn more' page is not wordy enough. I think you should elaborate more on what the service does. There is more info on the home page than the 'learn more' page.

First off, great design and layout, very clean and pretty too. It compliments twitter well. However, it's not clear to me what the service does. The first feature listed on the 'what you get page' says: PubliciTweet is a social media marketing tool that helps you leverage those followers with unique campaigns and tools to track your success.

This works more as an opening tagline and might be better suited to the homepage. From the homepage, I get the idea that PubliciTweet is a service where I can queue a series of tweets at various intervals . PubliciTweet then tracks and graphs which tweets by measuring clickthroughs perhaps. When I click 'learn more' - I don't learn actually learn any more. Maybe an in depth description could go here explaining the guts of it or a video demo.

I just get blank pages

I hope it lasts long enough to gather some stats on voting; whether or not more or less votes are cast with the new system, how spread out they are etc. I liked the idea of masking votes when it was initially suggested too. Bravo to pg for trying it out.

This is just a hypothetical concept. The designer has not created a product that has the ability to 'grow' into meat or the technology that would do this. He has designed a pot. Big whoop. The story minus the content-jack here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1215883/Contr...

400 Bad Request

if the $20 bought part ownership and a share of any future sale, then I think more people would be interested.

In fairness, in the linked post, only the x-height of each character is 3 pixels. The task the designer of 3x3 set for himself was to create a typeface where each character could only be 3 pixels high and wide at most. That said, the work in the linked post is a very clever and precise exercise in optical illusion. It works wonderfully and is ideal for cases where a design calls for legibility at such a tiny size.

Here's another but this one's full height and width of each character is 3 pixels, only capitals and numbers are used: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3x3

This service lets you render your own text in 3x3: http://bikko.org/practice/3x3/index2.php

or a light-hearted way to ask them to stop posting information without first fact-checking.

The TC post does hint at a serious motive for the prank though.

...And something else about teaching us to contact them before posting.

I think the novelty of the concept plays a large part in his success too though. It's like the million dollar home page - some ideas only work once because it's the story that is being sold. Second servings won't get as much attention. I would love to be proved wrong though. Maybe that could be your angle.

Yikebike: How much: €3700~ ($5400) | How far: 9-10 km (5.5 miles) | How fast: 20 kph (12 mph)

For comparison...

Segway: How much: $2-7000? | How far: 38km (24 miles) | How fast: 20 kph (12 mph)

Be careful on alibaba and any of those type of sites though. Lots of scammers and middlemen posing as manufacturers.

My high-school art teacher once questioned painters like these: "why not just take a photo?"

Can I ask you how you knew so quickly that this was stolen content. Were you just aware of the original source, or do you use some kind of plugin?

Say what you want about AllThingsDigital but I find it ridiculous that a TechCrunch post offering a summary of the situation is linked to and commented on to when it doesn't offer any further detail or incite that cannot already be gleaned from the existing post and thread about the matter.

I'll gladly pay for anyone's copy of this highly-collectible and future-valuable magazine if they'd ship me one to Europe :)

I can see it being an interesting subject on Antique Roadshow 2090 and buying someone something nice.

sure, sometimes Centraltrade (a wholesaler in China | e-liquid.cn), Bestecig.com (A manufacturer in China..atomizers are great, avoid his batteries though) and totallywicked-eliquid.com (A seller In America and the UK). They all do bulk deals and there are some others too I haven't used like Puresmoker.com (USA) and eastmall.net (China)

Interesting but nicotine can also "be toxic" and induce similar side effects to lobeilia at certain levels as well. They sound like the act in the same fashion and the amount of lobeilia which will be contained in the device likely won't cause any ill affects.

From wiki: Native Americans used lobelia to treat respiratory and muscle disorders, and as a purgative. Today it is used to treat asthma and food poisoning, and is often used as part of smoking cessation programs. It is a physical relaxant, and can serve as a nerve depressant, easing tension and panic. The species used most commonly in modern herbalism is Lobelia inflata (Indian Tobacco).

The company who are bringing out the product are highly regarded for their dedication to health and safety. They are the only company who have had all their liquid rigorously tested for impurities by an independent clinic in New Zealand. They have also courted the health authorities in every country they have sold their product in and I imagine their new liquid will undergo the same scrutiny.

To be honest, after watching the orchestrated smear campaigns conducted against e-cigs in the past year, it wouldn't surprise me if there was a concerted effort to do the same to lobelia.

As an avid e-cig user, I would advise against it. If you are not already addicted to nicotine, then there is no need to start. Although there are some studies that suppose nicotine might help people stave off alzheimers and help with other mental disorders unless you think you stand a good chance of suffering from one of these in the foreseeable future and you think nicotine might be beneficial, there is no need to start a habit that will quickly control you.

If you really want to try e-cigs, there is nicotine free liquid available and one company (the original inventor) announced today that they will be bringing out an e-cig device that will have the active ingredient lobelia, also known as "Indian Tobacco" instead of nicotine. This is because they will be able to market it as a dietary supplement, something which the FDA will not be able to ban (they're guessing anyway).

The FDA are currently in court with 2 e-cig distributors because they decided suddenly to the joy of various associates of the pharmaceutical industry to classify all e-cigs as drug delivery devices (even though no medical claims were made by the two in question - the largest distributors of e-cigs in America) and confiscated their shipments. In a strange turn of events the two e-cig companies are arguing their products should be classified as tobacco products.

It's a shame your first experience was with over-priced inefficient garbage. Try one of big battery models (with a manual switch) from one of the American or European e-cig start-ups and drip bottled liquid directly onto cheap atomizers which should be considered disposable items. I got through about 2 a month and buy them in bulk for around $6 each.

Here's my list of all the big boys: http://www.e-cignews.com/items/A_run_down_of_all_the_big_bat...
