A few of my own thoughts and observations. Content (from your friends that you see) really is king. http://bit.ly/10CinIx

I'm in London too. 24, with a similar resolution to get out of my comfort zone. Let's grab a pint or two.

Their newish (and enticingly named) 'TimeTraveler' app is very well-thought out. UI is a bit clunky though.

Saddened to see someone so talented and young take their own life.

It's never worth it.

Re:Nexus 4 stock shortage down to 'huge demand', LG explains on Sunday December 09, 2012 @07:58PM (#4896892)
Back in November after the first batch sold out within half an hour, I wanted to get a Nexus 4 to give Android another go and check out Google Now and other new features of 4.2, as iOS6 felt a bit stale despite being a big fan of the black & slate iPhone 5's industrial design. But I got tired of checking the Google Play link everyday which always read "Out of stock". So I got the iPhone 5 instead.

When the second batch became available, I ordered one for a friend, still waiting for it to ship. (it said 1-2 weeks so it should ship this coming week)

From everything I've read so far, the Nexus 4 seems like a great phone at an unbelievable price, but Google and LG are really shooting themselves in the foot with customer service, shipping on a frustrating not-on-first-come-first-ordered basis and repeated delays.

I think a lot of customers would've been happier if they sold it through Amazon instead.

Favourite part of the article: how NYT describes each apple that the tax subsidiaries are named after.

"Braeburn is a variety of apple that is simultaneously sweet and tart."

"Baldwin apples are known for their hardiness while traveling."
