Photoshop can just as easily create vector layers. The site design I'm currently working on is entirely vector shapes with the exception of real world photographs. I can design great pixel-snapped icons and UI, and resize the document to 20

The homepage is rather terrible at explaining the product. The two clearest explanations on the page are in the smallest and most illegible type. "@bubbles is a fast, cool and easy way to write authentic letters. Put hand-written signature,

But they can't create critical mass without access to data from those stores. It's chicken and egg, and it's flawed in more ways than one.

On the same topic, does anyone know the display arms they're using in that last picture? The mechanical thing holding up the Apple LCD Displays.

I'm still waiting for a custom scrollbar that reacts to natural scroll speed. This and all other JS based scrollbars scroll much too fast in Safari.

Huh? Correct me if I'm wrong, but Facebook's iPhone app was the first to use the slide out menus that don't take you away from the main screen. Path copied this exact approach with its new app.

Are Ron and Yuri then admitting worry about the outcome of these deals? If they see the need to mitigate risk to a 3rd party (to the extent of giving away 1/3rd of the potential outcome), it seems they may be unsure of the bets they placed
