Let's say Mark Zuck. wants to use Google Drive, and upload all Facebook code on it. Using this TOS, it allows Google to go through the Facebook code, and use it to improve Google+.
As a programmer that uses Dropbox to backup all my code, I find this a little bit scary.
Doesn't allow me to access my files on my Android device. I sometimes like to access a PDF, or word document :(.
Ok thank you,
But does it also give them the authorization to publish it to anyone else not logged in into my account ?
What about the "publish" part of it ?
I mean they can tell me that the code I upload online will stay my intellectual property, and I understand if they need to read it, or modify it for OCR. But why publish ?
I don't want my code published everywhere....
I use google voice for everything, I find it important to be able to receive text messages on my Google Voice account. (I don't have a text messaging plan)
This thing is old and was already on Hacker News.
Google's one looks better also!
My website is working:

and its a social news reader, that means you can read twitter and facebook through it :) might be useful for China
I have an average of 60 hours per week, that's about 8.5 hours in front of the PC

Hey,I've recently created a few Android apps to learn Spanish and French. The app basically has a long list of words, it dictates you a word in english, and then says it in Spanish. When I wanted to learn Spanish, I found that this technique was really helpful to quickly learn vocabulary, and works while I'm commuting, which saves a lot of time.Now this app is pretty original, and is very...
and this cut-the-rope ad has been around for a long time... at least 2 months I think

I have a Touchpad myself, my wife has an iPad. I do prefer using WebOS than iOS. Love the multitask.
Only problem are the apps :(
I just use my debit card everywhere. And just get pissed off when I need coins for parkmeter and laundromat. Everywhere else -> slide!
I build 2 apps, both in less than 5 hours.
Brings me about 50$ per month. Its barely worth the 10 hours buts it was fun.
The only thing not working on an iPhone iOS5 I've tried is the popups, I'll try fixing it thanks for the bug report.
Please check out the Facebook/Twitter functionality :).
The idea is not to have another RSS reader, but to have a News Reader, that would fetch all news coming from as most sources as possible. RSS are just part of it.

Hey everyone,I have spend some of my free time of the last year and a half working on a cool project: Readbo ( http://readbo.com ).
I loved using Google Reader, but I always thought it wasn't being updated quickly enough, and wanted some new features.
So I decided to create something that would be better than Google Reader and at the same time make Google Reader users happy.Readbo is an RSS...
This seems low for me for .NET. But then I live in the bay area, where everything is way too expensive.
PS: I also installed Mac OS X on a dell previously. It works very well if you have the right laptop, and have 30+ hours to spend trying to install it. Some laptops cannot run it.
I used a VM a few years ago, worked very well. And it was fast as I was doing it on a desktop that had "Virtualisation Technology". Felt like using a real mac.
I remember I downloaded the VM via bittorrent. I think if you put Mac OS X on a VM its illegal in any cases.

Hey,I have been working on a personal project for a long time. I would like to maybe create a startup with it in the future, but I currently don't have the money.
I wanted to know, is it possible to create a website under my name, register my gmail account with an Individual account on Adsense, put advertising on my website and get paid under my name. And then maybe in 6 months, create a...
Please put a date in your rss feeds. At least a "last_updated" field!

Hey,
Me and my wife will be starting a startup in France, with a product called iCheckBank. Basically it is an application for mobile phones where users can view their bank accounts directly on their phone (Currently Android only). And we would want it for it to be as cool as Mint.com is in the US (Mint is US and Canada only).We have only 2 bank accounts for now, the app is available...
I have a macbookpro and a dell, well I prefer my dell
