While I like 2 step authentication I wish Google would get rid of SMS password reset. With this enabled all a person needs is your phone to gain access to your account. Given that police can grab you phone whenever you are stopped this means they can "hack" your account at the same time. Another example could be a cleaning person at a hotel finding your phone. Just two examples off the top of my head. Basically, SMS password reset makes your phone the golden key.

How is that light weight? let's see it has scripts for skeloton projects/models/etc, has it's own orm's, and even ships with its own package manager. that seems like a lot of stuff is you're looking to light weight.

I keep seeing people post their dislike for "bootstrap" sites so here is one that I think changes the base styling enough to be "not another bootstrap" site.

Re:Dropbox flagged as unsafe by IE

maybe dropbox should run security checks on uploaded content that goes in the public folder. if they are going to host it they should make sure it's safe.
of course this makes an assumption about why IE flagged Dropbox.

Re:Donatello, a pure CSS drawing library
