Your story can travel far beyond the local media

I've been meditating pretty much every day for a few months now, and the thing that got me into it was getsomeheadspace.com

I've found it incredibly helpful - having a different guided meditation to do on the train every day makes the London commute, whilst not blissful, certainly better.

Very small point.

Nowhere does the article state that any Canadians have ever been to the moon.

I haven't looked into this for a while - but isn't one of the advantages of the Kindle the ecosystme that surrounds it - in the same way that the iPod is not just an mp3 player - i.e. the iTunes ecosystem?

well one of the first robots that i saw one of these guys build does pretty much exactly that - so worth getting in touch - they know about where to get all the parts, pre-packaged kits and all kinds of stuff

these guys meet up regularly in my town (Brighton, UK). Might be worth talking to some of them via the forums: http://robotbrighton.ning.com/

fluffyemily on twitter runs the group so she might be of some help too.

I know this is getting off topic, but the original Monkey Island handled it beautifully

localized versions? Are there any domains like .in which mean "in" in other languages?

doesn't this solve one of the classic dieting problems of keeping the weight off?

They moved on to http://socialbrowse.com

i don't seem to get the popups :(

I tried it, and it wouldn't let me as it had been tested too much in the last 24 hours

I agree, it seems to me that like many things in life, the answer lies between the extremes

Very small point, but equity is mentioned

yeah, i haven't tried that myself, but I don't think it would improve my current situation that much...

Just to further clarify what I want, I like to break tasks down so that I'm constantly working on the "Next possible logical step" no matter how small.

Most of the time I just write them in a list in a text editor, but then i get to the point where i need to clear out my scratchpad - thus losing track of my progress.

Obviously seeing my progress in a chart/graph is not necessary to get stuff done but it might help with motivation :)

Thanks - I'll work on those things

your domain registrar should provide that option

that's a good point that I had not thought of. But are these not just for open source stuff?

What if I don't want to go the open source route?

I thought about this myself too.

But, if this is the case, releasing these side projects suddenly becomes a whole lot less fun (never mind desirable).

It even costs more.

If there were some kind of trustworthy company, that could act as an umbrella for side projects - i.e. standard T&C / privacy policy let the developer maintain some kind of ownership rights etc.

does this sound ridiculous?

This is what I have been trying to say to some of my fellow coders, but somehow could never quite express it.

Amiga Power

Would you care to elaborate?

Has anyone here used this? What is it like compared to backgroundrb?

Is it going to be built on open standards though? I think that's an important differentiator.

you could do some kind of equity deal / revenue share with them, thus incentivizing them to stay with you rather than do their own thing

when i said this is true - i was referring only to the linkbaitish title.

'Presumably each year has been a record high?' - Not if the record is on a year by year basis

also - wasn't one of the americans this guy:
