My Comments Across The Web

I made a site with bookmarklet quite some time ago that does something similar to that.. http://www.convotrack.com (was made more for twitter though)
I see you’ve made the spreadsheet uneditable. A wise choice! (Users that have seen the previous posting will agree)
In the typical case such a device is really only useful in the first month or two. After that all optimizations have been done. So I think that this monthly subscription model is a bit flawed in that regard. I’m probably wrong..
The ipad already has a big enough surface to allow you to type on the “virtual” keyboard with both hands, as can be seen in the conference video when Steve demoes it. Apple also has a “tactile feedback” patent that should make using such a keyboard much easier in future ipads:
Apple also has a second patent for amongst other things handwriting recognition: http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/10/01/evidence_of_apples_tablet_like_input_interface_reappears.html
This would be ideal for the ipad. Too bad none of these technologies appeared in this version.
2 things bother me about this ipad:
1) It’s a closed system. This is both good & bad. But just because music software exists on mac os x doesn’t mean it will for the ipad. Someone will have to make that and sell it in the app store.
2) Expandability. This thing really needed an SD card / USB slot. This is a computer. It’s ok for a music player to have a fixed amount of space, but not for a computer.
I do think this should prove to be an interesting device for people that are not in to computers much. Older people might enjoy it due to the ease of use.
You’re giving up awfully quick.
As said, you could pick 5 people you trust, but still allow other people to send in the occasional blog post. The trick is that these blog posts from “unknown/guest” authors would have to be moderated somehow. The select 5 could probably do this..
I could probably even write a plugin that requires all 5 (or a majority) of them to approve the post before it’s posted online..
It’s interesting to see how many comments this post has received already. Versus most other guest posts having zero comments. (Or maybe people aren’t approving the comments?)
Regardless, I last heard of Ashley on the 13th of january, so I doubt there’s reason for worry.
No matte screen is disappointing.
Would you mind sharing the scripts? Would love to have something similar. :-)
Get used to seeing these type of pages:

Clickbank mostly sells those spammy ebooks on “how to make alot of money”. Granted, they do sell lots of them.

I thought of Chandler.

Let’s see how Red Steel 2 for the wii handles this. It will be revealed at E3 (beginning of june). It makes use of wii motion plus which adds extra input to the wiimote so that you can have a true (or as close as you can get) 1:1 motion.
$3 per thousand impressions seems more likely.. Especially for this kind of stuff (entertainment) there’s no way you can get $3 per click.
Awesomesauce! I had a basic class that does some similar things, but this is so much more advanced.
You can just click on the bar and it will hide immediately.
Correction: The U.S. now enjoys free content on hulu and other sites.

Yeah, a simply max-width / min-width css declaration would work.
