Firefox 8 is not even in the alpha. It will change a lot by the time it reached the users. So, i think there is no point in statements such as "Firefox 8 is 20% faster than firefox 5".
.co.cc is not an officially recognized second level domain. It is just sub-domains given out by a Korean company that owns the domain http://co.cc/
So, Google is actually removing just one domain with 11 million sub-domains. (source http://digitizor.com/2011/07/06/google-removes-cc-domains/ )
Rob Osherove was joking when he tweeted that VB6 is being open sourced. If you look at his tweets, he followed that tweet with another with a link to "video of the official announcement" which is actually a link to Never Gonna Give Up. Looks like he was rickrolling.
Anyway, Dough Seven, the Senior Product Manager of the Visual Team, had also tweeted that the rumors are not true. https://twitter.com/#!/dseven/status/71352709785198592

Almost nowhere are you required to report such things to the police. If you find an abandoned item, it's yours. Anything beyond that is good-Samaritan territory.
Not quite. According to California law you are required to report to the police if you find a thing that has been lost.
If the owner is unknown or has not claimed the property, the person saving or finding the property shall, if the property is of the value of one undred dollars ($100) or more, within a reasonable time turn the property over to the police department of the city or city and county.

Google has already submitted the said blog post as part of its defense http://docs.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/california/candce/3:2010cv03561/231846/103/0.pdf (Exhibit M) So, this is not a new development and unlikely to change anything.
I give it 24 hours before Facebook does something to break it.
Yes, his profile is still visible at https://plus.google.com/104560124403688998123/about . Only the details like number of followers, followings etc has been made private.
He is the Open Source Manager at Google. Former Slashdot editor, I think.

Not in India anymore. I do not know anyone who still uses orkut. Everyone has moved to Facebook.

The S2's dual screen form factor is hardly unprecedented. Sprint released a very similar Android device - Kyocera Echo - back in February. http://gadgetizor.com/kyocera-echo-is-a-dual-screen-android-phone/6820/
Yeah Steve Jobs will come out say something like "Consumer Reports tested it the wrong way".
What about the first law?
one step closer to my dream of becoming a superhero.

This is what it says in the CIVIL CODE SECTION 2080-2080.10
If the owner is unknown or has not claimed the property, the person saving or finding the property shall, if the property is of the value of one undred dollars ($100) or more, within a reasonable time turn the property over to the police department of the city or city and county.
Whatever they are saying about "familiarity" is just crap. Nobody will buy it. Its simply about money - Google outbid Yahoo.
OMGZZZ!!! Lucid Lynx enters beta!!! is slashdot having a slow news day today?
*goes to delete whatever is left in my myspace account*
wow .... i wonder if i should read this ....
Because the tapirs were planning to get into the eneryg bussiness themselves.
I sense some legal trouble for these guys in the near future..
I don't think there is any ground for those people to be sued. They are only using publicly available information - nothing wrong in that.
Maybe the rumors that robots have learned to submit stories to slashdot are true!!
Is this what Dr. Sheldon Lee Cooper do on Valentines Day?
