    I can access the Web Store fine with my apps account. The apps account administrator needs to enable it in the Apps control panel. IIRC it's in "Organisation and Users" --> "Servic…

    I often find the hardest part is actually starting whatever it is you're putting off. After that, it's a lot easier to keep going (provided you don't get distracted by interruption…

    If I'm right though, that's only a proposed restraining order? Or do I have the wrong end of the stick?

    Apps like Lucid Chart and Sketchpad are where I think HTML5 will be most useful. Flash is still (and likely will be) popular for games for a long time, but it doesn't work too well…

    This looks great, gives me a good excuse to start experimenting with node.js

    I think they seized some domains, but not necessarily the ones this article is talking about. If this is a hoax, it works particularly well, as ICE does't seem to have confirmed wh…

    My first (real) programming experience was with PHP when I was 14. Before that, I fiddled around with a bit of flash and ActionScript. I found it so much easier to learn by actuall…

    I've had a project under the AGPL for a while now, and it always annoyed me that Google Code wouldn't support the license. It's good to see them stepping forward to allow the use o…

    I've been using Linux for a while now, and I never thought about how powerful those simple commands can be.

    Agreed. Most of the time, we don't eat until we feel full, we eat until we finish what we've got. I can see the benefit to those who like to snack because they're hungry during the…

    Personally, I don't mind when sites complain about my browser, as long as there is still an element of choice. Not all HTML5/CSS3 features are there in stable versions of a lot of …
