I recently tried to delete my Digg account and couldn’t find a way to delete my account. How can webapps these days not have the ability to delete an account? Unless Digg just wants to maintain its inflated numbers of how many users they have.
Adobe AIR/Flex has the option to export files to iOS, Android and Blackberry. I tried exporting a demo app to Android and it worked well. I havent tried the other platforms though. Obviously, I doubt the performance would be as good as a native app but a mobile application for a school which doesn't require a game engine, I would say Adobe AIR/Flex is the way to go. But since you require Wifi triangulation or GPS, this might not be an option.
For those not well versed in Cricket (the game), Googly is when a spin-bowler bowls a ball in the reverse direction of that he usually bowls. So, if the ball usually spins from right to left, a googly would spin from left to right and trick a batsman and get him out. Hence the phrase "Google bowls a googly". [This is probably better suited for reddit's TIL]
Matt - I have a posterous site (which uses a subdomain of my main site) that I mostly use to index some of my favorite articles - same purpose as delicious but I can rest assured that the content will always be there. Since most of the site has dupe content, it may lose the PR (which I dont care for) but will that affect my primary site ranking.
I am not sure if Posterous offers the ability to add a robots.txt file with which I can tell search engines to exclude it, but would that prevent my primary site ranking from being affected?
If only we could short Groupon and LivingSocial. I would prefer Google Offers to Groupon any day and I can see stores in less tech savvy areas preferring to offer deals with Google Offers versus Groupon (which they've probably never heard of) just because of the brand name.
Schmidt was previously an Apple board member and had to resign due to conflict of interest but he is capable of restoring stockholder confidence once Steve Jobs steps down.
He would still have to resign from Google if he took the position (which his current statement doesn't support) but I don't expect an equally capable product guy to replace Steve. Schmidt could also help facilitate strategic relationships between the two companies again.
Agreed - even I upgraded my Galaxy S (Vibrant) to Gingerbread Clone (eb-productions) and have better battery life and an amazingly accurate battery life widget.
For some reason, I kept picturing Dexter (particularly S5) when reading this. I wish he used his intellect to somehow get back at all those other f-ing child molesters.
One of my favorite features is the daily email update (which will hopefully scale) that makes sure I catch any topics I am interested in, in case I wasn't able to keep up with my Twitter feed. I would still like to see the ability to add negative keywords to exclude Gowalla/4square type of posts.
Seems really similar to the Samsung Galaxy S (Vibrant) and I am disappointed to see it doesn’t have the
1. roller ball
2. physical buttons (that you can feel) for home/back/menu/search
3. LED (for notifications)
Now, if only Samsung would upgrade the GalaxyS owners to 2.2 (as promised) or 2.3 (wishful thinking).
Yep, Coldfusion is overly underestimated. It now supports script based syntax (similar to Java) and has a tonne of built-in useful functionality like Ehcache and more...
You wrote the "Cracked Screen App". I installed it and love it... it is so realistic. Haven't really had to install it and I didn't notice any ads in it - oh wait... that's probably because I have an adblocker installed on my phone.
Whatever the reason, we would like to honor these companies -- our "anti-portfolio" -- whose phenomenal success inspires us in our ongoing endeavors to build growing businesses. Or, to put it another way: if we had invested in any of these companies, we might not still be working.
