Re: Gwibber logo concept: CALL FOR FEEDBACK

They may make decent logos (for the top of a webpage) but I not convinced that any of them would look good as an icon.

The current icon, if not pretty, at least makes sense.

considering how much of the ecosystem is based around linux/mac, you'll probably still be better off firing up a VM and using Ubuntu or something.

aww, man. I wanted to get me a "Be back on Monday" but it looks like they're already sold out. (Can't blame them at that price)

I can say from experience that he does actually do that last part. We know you're not trying to cheat us on this one, but you can understand why we're waiting till tomorrow.

Re: Sprint HTC Hero now $99

Man, I didn't think my buyer's remorse could get any worse. I signed up for a 2 year agreement with Sprint a month ago and paid full price for the Hero.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great phone, but had I known about it, I would've waited a little longer and gotten a Droid.

Now this news comes out that my phone has dropped in price $80? I could buy so many apps with that money.

I was debating between my local Sprint store and Best Buy, but the Sprint store was closer to my house so I have zero chance of trying to get that money back.

I'm sure they've gone over it now that they've added all the extra links to the home page, but I remember reading that Google had managed to make it so that their entire default home page would fit into a single packet.

Personally, I would prefer that they show just one more ad and give me properly formatted (X)HTML.

Re: Scholastic Loses It Over Harry Potter/BitTorent Story

I'm curious, if someone were to take the book, encrypt it using the infamous ROT13 encryption scheme and then post it as a torrent, would Scholastic have any right to stop them? Doesn't the DMCA come into play against them?
