Not to mention we brazilians have been bombarded with fast-food joints in the past few years. My little hometown with no more than 90k habitants got its first Subway. And last year the first Taco Bell in the country came to São Paulo. This is the only one I would miss actually, as I've had enough from the traditional fast-food places.

Hi Bemmu, congratulations.

Do you have any costumers in Brazil? What are the delivery times? Do they report anything relating to this, and import duties? I'm almost subscribing.

Got so tired of this that I have reactivated mine, but I don't use it except for these logins.

How would you keep track of the ideas that have been implemented/are being worked on? User-submitted?

If you work with something like this

  /this/is/some/very/nested/directory/
and you need to move to almost the same structure
  /this/be/some/very/nested/directory/
then you might benefit from
  function bcd {
    cd ${PWD/$1/$2}
  }

Not to mention that by sharing it, he would be 33% more likely to accomplish whatever is on the list.

I'm assuming 'this' is any emulated device and not specifically Manymo (which I haven't tried -- I keep getting the "Fail Droid"). But there are plenty: you can't test bluetooth, get network state, check battery status, and other things.

But emulators are ok to test your layouts, even though the latest ADT plugin makes it much simpler with layout previews.

I can see the system working the author, but not for everyone. Actually, the "Reply within 24h" for clients is terrible advice, in my experience: if you take long enough to reply, they will call you, and this call might last forever. It takes only a few seconds (with GMail/GApps shortcuts) to reply "Ok, investigating the issue."

I read somewhere that you should delete e-mail from people that are e-mailing you for the first time and/or you feel it's not going anywhere. If they really want to contact you/need your help, they will send a second e-mail. And that e-mail is worth a reply.
