You could also import your transaction history into Mint.com. Once you have it linked to your bank's account, Mint will automatically grab the latest transactions any time you log in.
One of the problems with tabs is that operating systems seem to be designed to handle window-based multitasking. Take OS X for example. Expose works wonders with multiple windows, but does nothing to help our 10, 20, 100 tabs in Safari or Firefox or even any non browser app that uses tabs.
...not having 500 tabs open, just because you want to read them in the next 3 years or something? ^^
You know, there is a feature called "bookmarks" for this.
Sometimes, we keep tabs open to maintain the current state of the page, which may be different the next day or hour (something URL bookmarking doesn't address).
"it's getting a sound thrashing from Moto and Samsung, who've cornered the Asian market where touchscreens are popular for their ability to let users input Asian languages without all that fiddly Qwerty nonsense."
The iPhone does have non-QWERTY touch-based Asian input. It looks gesture based, and it's been available since firmware version 2.0.
From a marketing perspective, there are huge benefits to centralized computing of course. Take gmail for instance, which lets google mine your private communications to gain insight into products and services which might interest you. Perhaps, but it also gives us greater mobility in the sense that we can move from computer to computer anywhere in the world, and continue seamlessly where we left off.
the general sentiment seems to be that it won't be a hot seller. That's a far cry from being a success. There were also plenty of naysayers saying the first iPod wouldn't sell. I wouldn't be so quick to announce the level of success of an unreleased product.
2) Isn't global warming better than another ice age?
Is it? What if that same warming melts glaciers, releasing fresh water that dilutes the ocean's salinity? That makes it increasingly difficult for cooling water to sink and return south towards the poles to pick up more heat. This kind of disruption could cause Europe's climate to cool down. We're already seeing signs that a component of the current system powering the Gulf Stream might be slowing down.
Does it ultimately matter whether it's a natural or man-made process? An asteroid hurling towards Earth is entirely natural, but the real issue is - are we going to do anything about it now that we know it's happening?
Who cares? Start a similar service. There's no patent preventing you from doing so to the best of my knowledge.
Well, let's replace Blogger with the LiveJournal example. If you built up several years of posts and comments at Blogger, with years' worth of sites linking back to your own, wouldn't you be a bit hesitant to abruptly drop Blogger and essentially start over at another service?
Running out of people where? Although the iPod is sold widely overseas, there are still many customers in the world who would like to purchase an iPod.

After hearing about welders being rushed in the Bay Bridge east span project, I'm concerned about whether we'll see a failure similar to that in Boston's Big Dig, even when not considering the earthquake factor.
The headline is indeed misleading. After reading "Only 5% Bloggers are Journalists", I expected an article about how only 5% of bloggers have actually studied in the field of journalism in college.

if they waived the license registration and made it free, in light of the ad revenue the DMV or state would be receiving.
and the $9.95 billion of general obligation bonds?

If it's natural, then it's entirely possible that we can't do a damn thing about it.
Many natural disasters are, well, natural. Yet we aren't entirely helpless to stop them.

Will the automobile ever die, will toasters ever die, will stupid pointless articles written just to make ad money ever die?
No, the damn toasters never die! They come back to life via the resurrection ship.
Joke? Joke? You think that was a joke? THIS is a joke: These two Uranuses walk into a bar, see... and one of them was.. assaulted..peanut.....
Here's one. Two planets walk into a bar. Ouch.
I wish the article would mention what the dark cloud implies. Do scientists think it's a storm? Does it suggest water or life?

The sound will be played 50-100 times, how much more annoying can it get!
The following sound of 200 students logging off?

And besides, the caps lock LED would be lonely.

Why did the superchicken cross the road?
You'd have to be a complete idiot to be using 64 bit on anything other than a server.
What about the iMac G5 and PowerMac G5?
