Cool app. I was looking for something exactly like this yesterday and I was surprised no one had made it yet. Your UI is nice, but the icons are a little crowded on the view activity panel. Also it took me a minute to figure out what "

Cool. So what happens when Chrome updates or I accidentally turn off Dev mode? Does Chromebrew get wiped?

Where are the photographer credits? Where is the licensing information for each photo? What is your mechanism for compensating the creators of the original works you are republishing?

I use the !hn bang syntax on DuckDuckGo daily… Here's hoping it stays available.

Pretty cool. But why would I use this over Etherpad?

Which is why this acquisition was more about PR than talent or technology. It says (or tries to say), "You might think we're just dusty old Yahoo!, but we're hiring 17-year-old wunderkind too! We're hip to the next big thing! And remember w

Haven't tested in Firefox. I assume the webapp works just fine, but there's a dedicated Chrome extension.

Thanks but also sorry, because I should clarify—it's not my app, I just found it last night while looking for just this for a new Chromebook. I'm a heavy NValt user and there's sadly no Dropbox support on ARM as yet. Also saw that no one ha

Really cool, looking forward to giving this a try.

Agreed, lots of glitches that kept me from shelling out for the paid service. I gave it up and went back to Dropbox for OSX <-> Android syncing. At least the buyer isn't talking about shutting it down.

"No porn." Thanks mom! I'm mortified for the kid.

I'm having a real hard time deleting my account, because I used plus addressing in the email when I signed up for Instagram. This is making it impossible for me to log in to the web version of Instagram which is as far as I can tell the onl

For a second I thought satire. Nope.

Yes. I've never given to a Kickstarter campaign but would totally contribute to this. Proprietary chargers feel like such a ripoff at ~$30-$50, but clearly the $5 generics are a bad buy, so what you're suggesting is a real opportunity.

That's cool. I'll definitely buy your app in the future if you incorporate a Tasker plugin. http://tasker.dinglisch.net/developers.html

How does this improve on Quickdroid? Can I run scripts with it? tasker integration?

Headlines were bait before there were hyperlinks. Nothing new there—you're just seeing the process for the first time. Also, this doesn't take away from the substance of a very well-reported article.

Meh. Added spam to shared links. Buggy app that got worse and more bloated with every update. Finally stopped using the beta when they started crippling features like plain text selection. Now I suppose they'll sell my data to FB. Many of t

Really appreciate this developer's frank style combined with non-dickishness (offering refunds etc.). An example for others.

Same experience here, although I'm a newer user who just switched from Gmail a few months ago. Spent a couple of weeks researching alternatives before settling on Fastmail and would not be happy to repeat the process.

No way I'd renew my paid Fastmail.fm account if Facebook buys the company.

The post itself is a bit looney but the question is fair. I once noticed in my GV history a transcript of an outgoing message I'd left on another machine. Which is weird, because I thought GV was only supposed to transcribe incoming message

So if you keep several clients open in different places, it's at least harder to determine which IP reflects your current location, right?
