#22Nestle is a truly horrible company[1], this hook-up has really re-enforced the notion in my eyes that Google is now just another big multi-national corp in the same vein as the rest. It's sad, because I used to think they could show the world that a big corp didn't have to do things that way. I'm not sure if they changed or if I was just naive.

#23Pretty. But do there exist web browsers that display these scroll-to-animate sites correctly? Using either mousewheel or dragging the scrollbar (or worse still, dragging on an iPad), it's never anything but choppy choppiness and I miss important bits of text as they scroll past entirely between the little click stops on my mouse wheel. Surely it must be possible to actually view these sites, as evidenced by the fact…
It works great on basically any browser on a system with the Apple's Magic Mouse.
I'm still wondering why there's no some sort of smoothing polyfill in wide use.

I think the only device that's worked well with them is a Macbook with the smooth scrolling on the trackpad.

Nestle's CEO insists on his opinion that all the water in the world should be privatized. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEFL8ElXHaU
He's the former CEO (still chairman), and thst's not a fair summary of what he says in that video, about recognizing that water can have a price/cost like food.

Recent version of all browsers have roughly the same performance. But you need relatively new hardware. Old p4 and on-board graphics card won't handle it.
Re: KitKat's new website
#27Nice looking site. But why associate your product with junk food?
Android Jelly Bean? Android Ice Cream Sandwich? Android Honeycomb (ok that's not necessarily junk food). Android Eclair, Donut and Cupcake? It's been "junk food" since 1.5.

#28Sweet site but a loading bar.. REALLY?
I think the entire thing is meant to be a bit of a parody.

You realize your smartphone almost certainly has metals mined or processed by children in dangerous and unhealthy work environments ?

Don't let carefully crafted statements fool you.
Also, he was still the CEO at the time this statement was made. source: We feed the world (documentary)
