Call me paranoid or call me efficient, but I don’t like non-minified CSS and Javascript accessible in a production environment. It’s one thing setting up your web application to use minified files when it’s rolled out , but I’d prefer that the originals aren’t available at all – and yes, part of that is me [...]
I see it all the time – some new blog post detailing how to sync your Google calendar and contacts to somewhere, usually to the iPhone, using some new 3rd party service or crazy trick. Many people suggest NuevaSync to sync directly to the iPhone, or using CalDAV to get your calendars to iCal so [...]
The premise of Fever is simple: your current RSS reader is full of unread items that you’ll never get through, you can’t keep up with the volume, and you don’t want to add more subscriptions for fear of compounding the problem. Clearly, Fever is aimed at RSS ‘power users,’ and people with only a few [...]
Note: Opinions expressed here are my own, and not that of my employer, Cuil.
Google is full of creative, smart, and innovative people, but above all else, they are a fantastic PR machine. Sometimes it’s because of a carefully executed PR plan; sometimes it’s just because they are such a household name; either way, anything the [...]
I’ve been living in the United States for almost a year now, and there are a few services that I use very regularly that would do fantastically well if someone were to bring them to Australia. It’s been a while since I’ve been home, so someone could have started these already, but here is the [...]
I’m sure most of us have had the problem – search for something with Google, see a search result appear that is exactly what you’re looking for, only to find that when you click through to the page you get told that you must log in to see the content or (gasp!) pay to see [...]
As I announced on Twitter, I have recently joined Cuil as Senior UI Developer. While there are many reasons I chose to come on at Cuil in favor of other opportunities, there is one factor that really won me over: the people.
Cuil has a very flat management structure, and as such everyone has to be [...]
I’ve been doing web development for many years now, and over time I’ve discovered a few tools that make my life easier. I’ve used these in personal projects and recommended them to others, and I thought I’d share them here. While I’m a web guy, most of these can quite easily be used for other [...]
I have created a Google Code page to house the source for Twitter Stats. Both the web version and the command line CSV-output version are available through a straight download or SVN.
While the other contributors and I don’t have a problem with derivative works (the code is released under the GPLv2 license), we would appreciate [...]
Like many, I have been watching the news related to Google, among other’s, announcement of the Android mobile platform and the Open Handset Alliance.
