    I think it's demographics. Who owns an android phone, and what game would they buy? And how many competitors to this style game on the platform. Meanwhile on iOS, the demographics …

    Ok, I have a question about this: Should you do it? I've done this for a long time. I have the fi-5110EOXM for the mac that I love. Here's what I learned. I spent a lot of time sca…

    As a user, I HATE openid. I use one unique username/password for each site I visit. My browser will maintain this for the sites I'd like it to, and sites where security is importan…

    I have to agree. I would think the epicenter of Silicon Valley would be more likely Sunnyvale. It's surrounded by Mountain View, Santa Clara, Cupertino and North San Jose. Think Ap…

    I have a single 30" monitor and use Spaces on the mac. It makes me much much more productive than smaller monitors. The thing I like most about the 30" monitor is the HEIGHT -- I c…
