chromium

I lost it at "If you don't want to make your apps intuitive and easy to use, I hear OpenOffice is looking for some Java developers."

Hilarious, great article.

Awesome! Just letting you know, the "Take Screenshot" feature seems to be broken on OS X Lion, it would probably be easier to use the default 10.7 screenshot capture mechanism, and upload the files once they reach the Desktop.

I'm curious, where were you able to host this?

The interface looks fantastic, the simplicity is the killer feature.

I've seen lists... but unfortunately those only have "recent" posts.

But consider, would you really need one? I thought the same thing when I explored purchasing the new 13" Air, until I realized that the last time I needed to put a DVD in my computer was 2008 and it adds way more everyday weight than it gives everyday use.

"you're too used to PHP"

So I should write the micro-framework in Ruby? Any suggestions for starting out with that?

16 year old here, and I know exactly what you mean!

I've been-there done that, with the kinds of things your talking about... I've released iPhone apps, dabbled into web development, done JS, PHP, Python, Ruby on Rails, Java, C#, Objective-C, and lots of other things.

My advice is, this is a great point of opportunity in your life- you're living at home, your expenses (room & board) are being paid for, and you're not yet responsible for having job. It's ok to feel satisfied piddling around different platforms and languages, because this is a great time to explore things without worrying about making money.

Eventually, you'll probably find something that you're really interested in- and learn everything you can about that. The things you're learning now WILL be useful later on, I can tell you this from personal experience as a college student.

Since we're more or less the same age, we should communicate! Feel free to send me an email (grahamrexford@gmail.com) to talk, or even if you want help with something, I might be able to assist.
