Assembled is a great product. I have recommended it to a bunch of people that are serious about optimizing response times and getting the right people in front of the customers.

What am I?
wow thanks for the long description. have you ever tried to use a tool like nudow.com to do this? Is that any good?
Why doesn't the article have a link? www.boxfish.com
Great thanks! I will look there.
Wow! thank you that helps a lot!
I am currently living in DC, so I am used to the city and don't really like suburbs that much. So whats a good place that has the big city feel with lots of hacker activities?
oh, well the above comments explain in better detail why it only works in chrome.
Good job on figuring it out! Thanks for spending the time.
There are a couple of things that chrome do and other browsers do not. If you are really interested, its possible to do in other browsers by changing a few values, I was simply too lazy.

I think i am going to install the trial version! who wants to play?
This is future! The proof is that "biggest bit torrent case" targeting 23000 defendants.

I was joking about illegal drug delivery. I don't think its legal to send medicine through intermediaries, so I don't actually think it would work for something like CVS/Walgreen. But besides that, I like the idea of sending physical packets in a P2P network. Think of how torrents work and try to apply that to your business model. (might help)
can we expand this to do drug delivery too?
Thanks! I used phosphor2 and got the Linux kernel source to feed it.. Really nerdy, but a cool screen saver..
last updated in 2001. Does it even still work on 64 bit win 7?
does anyone want to make this into a screen saver? Would be pretty cool.
I started writing a response, but then it got too big. Basically the 5 second timeout is a bad idea because its implementation is not worth the effort. http://oim.ae/gx8qMD for the reasoning.
But the other thing, use UTF8 high value characters. Or simply learn Russian and use a password from russian words.
I will try this! thanks!
I like that idea of doing a video, but instead of showing what are the different features of the application, show the problems this solves. Thank you!
I was thinking about making that an open source jQuery plugin. If you would like I can provide it to you. There are a few issues with it right now however. After I fix those issues, I can provide it.
To tell the truth, the best way to learn to develop something is to go and do it, mess up, read some article, and do everything possible before asking for help. If you can figure out how to solve the problem yourself, then you not only learn how to develop, but also learn how to tackle a problem in the future. If someone is "coaching" or "mentoring" you, you wont ever learn, and both of you will be frustrated. I recommend start small and grow your dev chops. Make the development of your idea the way to learn to do it and keep the motivation for learning.
What you need is a fixed point decimal. I found this article asking the same question. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1019939/ruby-on-rails-bes... Fixed point is what is supposed to be used for money. Databases currently have a "Money" type.
A few years ago I went to Belarus. I made probably 1 20-30 minute call. I got a bill from ATT for ~$1000. The call cost $5 an minute!! Anyway, we called ATT and cut that payment, however I did still have to pay around $500. Call them and fight it for a while, tell them that you are going to sue them on some grounds (such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unjust_enrichment).
We mainly use TableStorage as well for storing data, however since none of the data that we have is stored (besides user information) we have each webnode talking directly to each other. I am not quite sure if each of these transactions costs money, but since all the connections between servers are stable connections that are left open in a separate thread, I am thinking it will be pretty cheap. We did run into some problems when using TableStore since I think we underestimated how much we need Count, GroupBy, Sort, etc. Even basic operations such as bringing back a list to display to the user, then clicking to sort by a column is difficult.
It's OK. We just started hosting on Azure, and I wonder what people thought of it in the long term with scaling and usability. It is however some buggy and sometimes slow, but in general I really like it.
I thought its too much and by the time I click on it and it scrolled over, i forgot what the first part was. Also, too many screens to go through. Cool effect and unique, but i would do if for like 1 or 2 slides and quicker.
