How smart is Nokia? 7:06pm on 16 Apr 2009 Perhaps the fact that we are all slowly being moved to 18 month contracts by the Networks is causing a fall in mobile sales? If I'm on an 18 month contract I only "buy" a new phone every 18 months, rather than every 12.
Red faces at the Home Office 12:22pm on 07 Apr 2009 My understanding with the .TV top level domain, and it may be wrong, is that the rightful owner is the country of Tuvalu and that they auctioned it off to raise money to pay for their seat at the UN. The registrar allows anyone to buy domains with that TLD - where as .uk are supposed to be better protected by Nominet.
BBC News radar 12:38pm on 01 Apr 2009 I think it's a great idea. On boring afternoons at work it'd be nice not to have to search for something new to read - but to have new articles given to me.

DisgustedOfMitcham2:

I work for an agency building websites, ("solutions" if you are in marketing,) and it's always worth building a quick functional prototype of something before explaining it fully to a client. (The client in this case would be you and I, I guess.) That way the developer will be given significantly more useful feedback on what is liked and not liked - because the client has something in front of them to actually play with.
Obama's humour problem 4:24pm on 22 Mar 2009 Didn't you know, MagicKrin? (#78) Journalists are much more important than the likes of you and I.
Microsoft hopes to turbo charge IE 2:32pm on 19 Mar 2009 I'm actually looking forward to it. As a professional web developer for an SME I found Internet Explorer 7's rendering almost identical to Firefox 3. Sometimes the two are closer than Safari and Firefox. IE might not be perfect yet but it is close enough that it only requires minor tweaks to make a website work all current browsers happily (and by current I mean ignoring the abomination that is IE6.) Don't get me wrong, I develop in FF, (mostly for the mighty Firebug, and also mostly in FF 2 because of an annoying “refresh with POST data” bug in FF 3,) but I happily browse in IE the rest of the time because it just a bit easier without all the clutter of additional customisations and awesome bars I have absolutely no interest in.
Changes to our blogs 12:50pm on 18 Mar 2009 I'm afraid I too am not a fan. While everything looks much nicer the more popular blogs are unusably slow when they have hundreds of comments. Perhaps some form of pagination would help out us poor users with computers more than 6 months old?
