Is there a way let users collaborate without authorizing the app?

Developers authorize and create API with Google but it will be nice to allow users to collaborate anonymously like Sharing a Google Doc to the public.

“If you write a book that annoys or inconveniences me, even deliberately, I have no civil or criminal recourse. But if you send an e-mail message, or post a tweet, you could face three years in jail,” says Mr. Prakash. “That’s higher than the two-year imprisonment for causing death by negligence.”

These facts stand out about the Olympics:

- Phelps has won more Olympic medals in his career than India in all Olympics

- Jamaica won 2 medals at women's 100m a few minutes go. Bolt still has to go. Why Jamaica?

- The United States has heavily relied on its dominance in swimming, racking up 23 of its 37 medals in the pool.

- Kazakhstan has 5 medals, all gold! Four in weightlifting. Population is barely 16 million

Will be interested to find more

I would like some help with these:

- Is there support for inapp payments? Built in or plugin based?

- how does this compare with trigger.io and titanium?

- does this version not need xcode to create apps like trigger.io?

I am very curious to know how GSK actually pay $3 billion. Does the CEO and/or board members walk into their bank and request for a transfer? What are the typical security restrictions in place?

Dr. Temple Grandin, an adult with autism who became a successful engineer, academic and speaker, believes that her disorder is an asset. She once famously called NASA a sheltered workshop for people with autism and Asperger Syndrome. She believes that people with autistic spectrum disorders are the great innovators, and "if the world was left to you socialites, nothing would get done and we would still be in caves talking to each other."

I used to be a developer. I now work as a team lead / client liaison. Coding is not in the top 5. My job is to anticipate what my team will need and make sure that there are no obstacles. I also help with DB design and platform choices. Strong knowledge and experience with what developers need help me a lot.

I was wondering if a person without a development background could take my role as team leader to manage 3/4 developers on a daily basis.

Woah! Matrix takes this one step forward where the agent takes your body! Interesting idea.
