While I agree that the penalties for breaching food hygiene / safety standards should be high, I think a site like this has pretty serious flaws. Lets say a restaurant cleans up their act after being previously penalised. Can they ever get off this site? How about if the business is sold and the problems of previous management solved?
"It pretty much is" no it is not.
Looks cool but you need to remove all the Google branding. It's misleading and trademark infringement.
Clever, but it will never take off. These real world type games always tank. Why? Because no one wants to go running off randomly looking for a stranger whilst looking like a complete twat. And making actually pay for this? pfft
You summed up what I was trying to get across perfectly. So many people running around with 'ideas' and non disclosure forms. Frankly though if you cant implement it, its not worth jack.

From what I understand the XPS 13 standard is exactly the same as the standard model without Ubuntu preinstalled yes (except that it has a windows key as opposed to a linux labeled key)? The developer edition is not available in all countries.
So you don't have to obtain the Dell drivers separately? They are included in ubuntu 12 onward?
How are you going about getting the deals / codes etc into your system?

I've been following Kahn Academy's math videos / quiz's and find them excellent. I sucked at math during school, mostly due to bad teachers early on which lead to a fear of math in later years when it got more advanced and my foundations were weak. I would like to re-teach myself math from the absolute beginnings, covering everything that my high school education would of covered if I had of...
Thats true. But what have they really got to sell?
Theres a difference between having value to users because its a decent app and they get to use it for free, and generating revenue from those users. Ask those users to pay and they will leave in droves.
