Tonight Facebook has made a number of updates to the Facebook platform one of which is the opening of status updates. In order to get Facebook statuses, you no longer need to use a session ID to access statuses. This is a huge update and one that I think is going to take Facebook to the next level. - Facebook Opens Status API, Say Goodbye to Twitter
Forget the Mayans and their silly 2012 doomsday scenario. The real end of the world will happen because of that most venerable of operating systems: UNIX. That’s because next Friday, UNIX time will read 1234567890. Scary! And, it just so happens that this event will coincide with one of the more superstitious days on our calendar, Friday the 13th. - UNIX Time to Read 1234567890 On Friday the 13th
If you did a Google search between 6:30 a.m. PST and 7:25 a.m. PST this morning, you likely saw that the message “This site may harm your computer” accompanied each and every search result. This was clearly an error, and we are very sorry for the inconvenience caused to our users. - Google Blog: “This site may harm your computer” on every search result?!?!
We wanted our new name to be a welcoming change, something that would represent Christ and not just one religious affiliation, giving everyone the opportunity to connect, share and grow online. Most importantly, we wanted our name to represent YOU - and all that can be changed when you wrap your faith around it. - Changing Godtube to tangle
The brand new items that you can buy now on our site are the results of months of brainstorming, Bible study, market research and countless consumer surveys. To create a line of 12 new t-shirts we start out with about 50-60 scripturally sound and culturally relevant ideas. - Living in the Future
I am seeing more and more media outlets jump on the Twitter bandwagon in an attempt to utilize the latest web trend. However, while many see the obvious opportunity, few actually use it effectively. - Twitter Observation: Local News Stations
A few days ago I picked up some new shampoo. I was reading the bottle and it said “The Kiehl’s Patch-Test™: Before applying…” Why does that need to be formally trademarked? Are they worried Aveda or Redken or some other shampoo brand is going to suggest you use the “Kiehl’s Patch-Test” before you try their shampoo? What exactly is Kiehl’s trying to protect? - Trademark hysteria
In the same way that the US wasn’t about to start using thermonuclear weapons in Vietnam and Korea and most likely won’t in Afghanistan either, we as a society aren’t going to start killing spammers at any rate necessary to act as a proper deterrent. - Crime and Punishment
In September of last year, Google announced its opposition to California’s Proposition 8. While the campaign was emotionally charged and difficult for both sides, in the wake of the election many were concerned with the impact Proposition 8 could have on the personal lives of people they work with every day, and on California’s ability to attract and retain a diverse mix of employees from around the world.
That’s why we’ve signed an amicus brief in support of several cases currently challenging Proposition 8 in the California Supreme Court. Denying employees basic rights isn’t right, and it isn’t good for businesses.

For me, documentation isn’t always enough to learn about APIs; I need examples that I can play with. That’s why I started a fun project recently—a tool for teaching developers how to use Google’s JavaScript APIs: the AJAX API Playground. I have been working on this in my 20% time and today I am proud to announce that we are launching the AJAX API Playground as the official way that Google will show JavaScript samples! - Playing around with Google’s AJAX APIs

Unlike Arial, Verdana was specifically designed to be read at small sizes, and its wide proportions and loose letter-spacing make it ideal for web body copy. Conversely, its spacious nature is not well-suited to display at large sizes, and headings styled in Verdana generally look ugly. - Fonts for web design - a primer
I once heard an author remark that when you are a child you use a computer by looking at the pictures. When you grow up, you learn to read and write. Welcome to Computer Literacy 101. Now let’s get to work. - Learning the shell.
My guess is you’re probably a typical ex-Windows user (as I was), used to running as Administrator and being able to edit pretty much any file you want—even system files, even the registry—at will, very little stopping you… maybe the occasional “read-only” file that you can just make read/write by checking a little box in the Properties dialogue. - File Permissions in Ubuntu
The study estimated Google used 16.5% of all U.S. consumer Internet traffic in 2008, and that share is estimated to grow to 25% in 2009 and 37% in 2010. What drives this conspicuous bandwidth consumption is Google’s search bots regularly copy every page on the Internet, some as frequently as every few seconds, and Google’s YouTube streams almost half of all video streamed on the Internet. - Google uses 21 times more bandwidth than it pays for
A simple claim of frequency response that cites two frequency extremes unqualified by a dB specification (e.g., frequency response: 34 Hz - 22 kHz) is meaningless and useless. It may mean that although the speaker responds at 34 Hz—the cone moves a bit, perhaps—nothing will be audible because the speaker’s response at 34 Hz is at -30 dB and inaudible! - Understanding Loudspeaker Frequency Response
