Tim Ferriss had Dr. Dom D'Agostino on his podcast late last year[1], where they talked about this subject in-depth. I thought it was a fascinating conversation and a great introduction to the topic.

Re:Overcast – A powerful yet simple iPhone podcast player on Wednesday July 16, 2014 @10:19PM (#8045675)
I've also found that Downcast has given me the most control over my podcasts.

One thing I haven't found yet, though, is a client that offers a playlist or podcast level setting where I can say I want to download the oldest unplaced episode for a show. iTunes has such a sync setting for TV shows, for example, and it would be very handy for podcasts where I'm working my way through an archive.

There is probably a limited audience for such a feature, however, so I'll probably have to keep waiting.

I was just searching for a plugin like this the other week, after I upgraded to Snagit 12. Thanks for making it!

I recommend taking a look at this post, along with the rest of the site. Lots of great insights: http://blog.priceintelligently.com/blog/bid/198499/Stop-Per-...

I believe it was Patrick who recommended that on Twitter the other week.

It's actually Wisconsin (where the Mendard's headquarters is[1]), not Texas, but I don't think that affects your point.

Walmart is paying $17/hour, too. With unemployment below 1%, it's going to take awhile before labor supply and demand fall into equilibrium.

I had the same thought six years ago, well before Bakken was developed [http://berbs.us/x/kvlks]. The state also has massive coal reserves, a large hydroelectric dam, and vast fields of wind turbines.

If it was a good idea then, it's an even better idea now.

Re:Google Disabling Exchange Sync for Free Accounts on Saturday December 15, 2012 @12:22AM (#4924658)
You're looking at the wrong page: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gappssync

I would expect this to keep working. According to the original article, this affects mobile devices using the free Google accounts.

As pointed out above, 6.0.1 fixes this, so upgrading shouldn't be an issue.

Re:Textmate2 Goes Open Source on Thursday August 09, 2012 @11:42AM (#4361587)
You can't currently pay for version 2 - it's in alpha, and isn't close to being released. And, as mentioned above, owners of version 1 were automatically supposed to get a license for Textmate2.
Re:Textmate2 Goes Open Source on Thursday August 09, 2012 @11:38AM (#4361565)
Marco talked about the current status of TM2 on Build and Analyze a few weeks ago[1], and from what he said, it sounds like it has some structural performance problems that weren't getting addressed. In addition, he said that requests for bug fixes and features were constantly getting rejected by the developer, which to me hints at either a loss in interest in the project, or a lack of time to devote to developing it.

Nilay Patel at The Verge had a good post[1] about this when it first came up in April 2011. Besides the fact that the F700 was announced at MWC in February 2007 (after the iPhone was announced in January), There are huge differences in the interfaces that matter in trade dress and trademark cases.

Basically, you wouldn't confuse an iPhone with an F700, while Samsung seemed to design Touch Wiz specifically to do that.

One Chrome (and Safari) extension that I found helps is called Page One [https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pojkjlgamiogkhagab...]. It will automatically redirect your browser to the single-page/print view for a number of popular sites (21 as of today).
Re:The relationship between Readability and Instapaper on Wednesday November 16, 2011 @11:50PM (#3246441)
I do the same thing, usually with multi-page articles, since Readability will stitch pages into one long one before I save to Instapaper.
Re:Readability service to become free on Wednesday November 16, 2011 @10:17AM (#3243372)
I'm wondering the same thing. Their original business model of splitting revenue with the authors was interesting, but I'm guessing they didn't get many subsribers.

I was interested in supporting them, but because I already support Marco @ Instapaper with a monthly donation, the Readability subscription (was it $5 or $7 per month) wasn't worth it for myself.
