Some say, streams are difficult to produce.

Same boat with most of you guys, Beej's site is really interesting, not just this one. Glad that it is still up and running. +1

IMHO, I really do believe how Socratic Method can improve teaching. Coming from a computer science degree and then studying Law, this method was really an eye opener on how to learn in a school room setup. It has been long used in Law schools and I believe if it can be implemented partly or fully in all schools, we might see good results. It tests the knowledge of the person being asked, whether he/she really understands the subject.

I've been using ZTE Open as my main phone for almost 2 months now. The cost isn't very high, but it does typical phone stuff. I've upgraded my FirefoxOS to 1.1 from the original 1.0. I also tried using 1.2 but there was a problem with the virtual keyboard where the keys doesn't adjust to lowercase so I reverted. ZTE Open doesn't have a really good hardware, but you get what you've paid for. It's really good for browsing the web, but doesn't do good with pages that have really heavy JavaScript.

Apps are pretty much limited, but it's a pretty new platform so we'll just have to wait (or code it ourselves). I don't usually erase SMS and I think it causes a bit of a lag when having tons of messages in your inbox. There will be a slight delay when creating messages if that is the case.

Calls are pretty decent, sometimes though, there's no sound in a call and have to stop the call and redial. I'm not sure if it's because of network problems or because of the phone.

There's this feature about sound issue in FFOS, where it "cares" when you've been listening in full volume and using earphones and automatically turns the volume down. I don't like it pretty much, but it's neat.

Also, there's still no copy-paste in FFOS 1.1.

All in all, I'm still using my ZTE Open, it's does the basic stuff but it might not suit you if you're used to IPhone and Android phones. I haven't tried other FFOS devices but if I were you, you can hold it for a while and wait for new devices to be released.

I guess things like this can't be avoided. anyway, great idea, but I think you can add features that let's the flying tile hit numbered tile that can get the score higher. just suggesting. or not.

Cool. Cartoons meet stock photos. The problem I'm seeing is that some cartoons sometimes are tightly coupled to a specific topic, and may be seasonal. Especially current events/politically/socially related cartoons and satire. IMHO.
