  1. Yep, you nailed it! on Why Have PDAs Failed In The iPod Era? · · Score: 1

    Yes, you nailed it: "people simply do not want an all-in-one for mobile media" In virtually every product category, the focused device beats out the hybrid. It's too easy to make the focused device better for hybrids to compete effectively.

  2. Re:Prefetching dangerous? on Google Web Accelerator · · Score: 1

    GWA only pre-fetches links that explicitly request to be pre-featched using {link rel="prefetch" href="/"}.

  3. Re:Prefetch can be dangerous on Google Web Accelerator · · Score: 1

    Except that GWA only pre-fetches links that explicitly request to be pre-featched using {link rel="prefetch" href="/"}.

  4. .net??? on Google Social Network: Orkut · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Anyone else surprised that it's .net?

    or those of us who have been using Communicator for years

    All three of you?

  6. Re:This is a Good Thing, IMHO. on Mozilla's Major New Roadmap · · Score: 1

    Now the 79% of the companies that use Outlook or Lotus Notes can reasonably decide to use a Mozilla-based browser. The whole thing that was preventing adoption of Mozilla the browser was that it came with all those superfluous components unrelated to browsing. This is the best thing to happen to Mozilla since Netscape/Mosaic 1.0. This is bigger than the open sourcing announcement since that did nothing to staunch the contraction of Mozilla/Netscape share. Now that the focus is squarely back on the browser, there's a great opportunity to gain some share and become relevant again.

  7. Get over yourself! on Opera Releases "Bork" Edition · · Score: 1

    Opera needs to seriously get over itself!

    Opera's lousy research failed to turn up that MSN sends the exact same "error" to Netscape:

    ul {list-style-position: outside; margin: -2px 0px 0px -30px;

    Sheesh.
