It looks like a competitor. Pik has a UI that's in the browser window rather than a pop-up prompt, which allows you to search for commands. Pik also shows you what commands are popular on a given site/page, which makes it easier to discover commands.
Most of this feedback is technical; can someone comment on whether they would use this or some future iteration of this project?
Try closing the notification and using it anyways. I'm whitelisting browsers that work and I haven't gotten around to all of them.
Thanks, I'll look into it. It's working for me on Chrome 5.0.342.9 on OSX.
Haha, unfortunately I didn't know that. Reminds me of how I looked up "Bing" in a chinese dictionary and found that it means "disease."
I will add that to my whitelist. You should be able to close the warning and continue.
I'm whitelisting OS/Browser combos, and I haven't added linux yet.
I enjoyed hearing them talk about tablets, given that was ~3 years before the iPad launch. (I believe most of that conversation occurred in part 5)
Eat less. I've also heard it's good for your health to eat less if you can.
One of the common themes I hear from people who come to the US from overseas is that food portions are quite large here.
My understanding is the prices are high because there's an oligopoly. To have competition, all the major browsers would have to agree to let in more companies, and they're just not doing that.
FriendFeed has an in-house framework inspired by web.py and Appengine's webapp. It was written by Bret Taylor, who was the PM of appengine when it started, but is now working for FriendFeed.
He mentioned that he might open source it, but hasn't done so yet. I encourage people to put some pressure on him to do this =)!

EDIT: I'm not sure who wrote the framework, so I was wrong to say that Bret wrote it. In any case, it was written by FriendFeed developers.
