Right on. The BBC article should link to this. Better that Google nabs unsecured data without intent that someone else with intent. Too much hype. What's worse than nabbing private packets is Google sticking a camera on…
Hang on a second, what if the interviewee doesn't have a Facebook account? Or just lies and says they don't have one? Would the next question be "why not" or "show us your email in-box"? Don't tell me that not having a…
Mobile web apps should work in more places than safari on the iPhone. Otherwise call it a "mobile safari app". I tried the app in mobile Firefox, no luck. I tried it mobile Opera, no go. Also, I don't understand why…
Agreed. But you're being too kind on Apple. This is the worst privacy breach from Apple in iPhone's history. No point blaming app programmers. The functionality for apps to acquire the address book without asking…
Analogy isn't needed at all. Address book uploaded without permission... enough said. To your second point, I agree, Apple should have a setting on the iPhone that denies ANYONE but the owner of the iPhone access to the…
Are we sure the rewind list isn't decided by one staff member at Apple, who ticks a few boxes one morning at their cubicle? Somehow I knew the app wasn't going to be free after reading the article: "I just have no idea,…

LOL, gold! I would buy that one too. As for the actual posters for sale, if people actually do want these on their walls, just type it in notepad and hit print. I'd sooner opt for a cheesy new age motivational slogan…
Someone should mention: this "cloud" is not actually a cloud, but relies on physical things to exist. At both ends, loads of electric current is needed. It relies on mining to bring the infrastructure, and it replaces…
"In reality, everything we are excited about today is going to be incredibly old and boring much faster than we ever expect". Um.... speak for yourself. I still appreciate and wow at the simplicity and brilliance of the…
This comment is longer than the article it responds to. A good new years resolution for the interwebs might be to Keep It Short, Stupid! The definition of "comment" also needs revisiting.
I mostly avoid Macs. I prefer PC. But I dig the iPhone despite the various lock-down restrictions. I moved on to an android phone, and for the most part liked the new freedoms the android offered, but it was a step down…
As an HTML/JS developer I really appreciate these powerful features that HTML5 will never have, and wasn't designed to have. People who say "use HTML5 instead of Flash" obviously have limited experience in actually…
Status bar 4 eva. I don't want "improved" UX, I want to keep it as is, and anyone who wants a new UX should opt in for that. Don't force me to look at your latest designer's attempt to be noticed.
