Exactly. The idea of copying email from one inbox to another "shared inbox" is painful.

Lists work well to a certain extent but would not be suitable for a number of cases. Say a team member decides to add an existing email conversation to the list at a later point in time. This would break the original email thread structure when added to list. What happens to an email in a conversation which came from someone outside the company. Someone forwards it to list again? Say someone forgets to do a "reply all" in an ongoing conversation, this email never lands up in the list.
We like using email for most of our tasks too. We use our own product GrexIt's (http://grexit.com) Shared Labels to share information and even collaborate right from our email inbox. Shared labels allow you to share particular Gmail label among a group of people in your company. Every email conversation on which a shared label is applied gets pushed to the user's inbox who were part of the shared label. All followup emails that arrive in an ongoing conversation also keep getting shared automatically. This approach requires minimal effort to share information and works better than lists. Most importantly users continue to access information from their inbox itself.
We use the shared labels approach for a variety of use cases like support and development. As soon as support email arrives to the support@ email-id it get shared with everyone. We have shared labels with every team member's name, say Task:John. To assign an email to someone, we simply apply the user's shared label on that email. This allows us to collaborate easily without needing any 3rd party tools
gestures are super funny!
Thanks for pointing this out. Your "attention to detail" is noteworthy ! We will rectify this soon.
I suppose a cloud app is needed which would help us to backup data across multiple/popular cloud services. Chances of data being lost reduce drastically (almost to zero) if multiple clouds are keeping a backup of the same data.
You would rather risk losing your data more keeping with yourself. This is a stupid post. Clouds solutions generally implement good backup solutions and with almost 100% availability to the data. Google has anyway restored more than 50% of the lost data.
Good stuff. The analysis is better than YSlow.
Stack overflow has probably been the best Q&A site around, content-wise, user-experience wise and probably every other criteria a user would care about. Good work !
Apple also released a few demos for html5 a while back, you will have to use safari though.
Quake 2 was ported to html5 sometime back. You should have a full html5 compatible browser to run it http://code.google.com/p/quake2-gwt-port/
Right balance is relative to your business and at what state you are in currently. For a t=0 startup, I would rather concentrate on finishing the basic feature set and launching asap rather than spending time looking around. For a business which is entering a growth stage keeping tabs on competitors and what's new makes more sense.
This is their logo ver2. The ver1 was way simple ! http://www.phpforandroid.net/artwork
Try Cain Able, its it probably the best ARP spoofing tool around for pc.
jQuery will act as more of a tool rather than the core for your application. It gets done a lot of things fast and efficiently. Your application design will decide how it performs on user's browser. Performance and resource wise I find jQuery very satisfactory.
yup! practice is the key. Gradually you will be able to start figuring better way of doing things.
