Of course they should NOT remove it! Like facebook, myspace, and real life, follower counts provide a huge service. The number of followers is a really strong objective measure of an account's (or a person's) legitimacy. How do you know the

This is great, but if you use OS X and need a more powerful solution, I would recommend http://www.malcolmhardie.com/sqleditor/ . I keep the DB schema of my current project open at all times. When I change something in the database, I imme

Robert Anton Wilson disliked the verb: I suppose Joyce made Bloom such a tangled genetic and cultural mixture to expose the absurdities of anti-semitism; but I also suspect that he wanted to undermine that neurolinguistic habit which postm

A friend and I have started working on a solution that allows customizable, simple, hosted (or embeddable) forums. Consider Tumblr's approach to blogging as applied to forums for the general feel. Do you think there is a market for this? If

how fitting - safari crashed while reading this article on my 3g iPhone. In addition to all those complaints, GPS and other location based functionality have been down for 3 days in NYC. Anyone else seeing this?
