DISQUS

Of course I mean't shouldn't and not should.

Why would it be a problem to say to someone that he should drive drunk?

Other than that I agree wholeheartedly.

ArsTechnica has reL=canonical (not reV) that points to page, which it should, if this is canonical URL. It also has rev="alternate short_url" that means same as rev=canonical. So what they do is quite right.

There is also a proposal how provide this information through HTTP HEAD requests, which would further alleviate a problem that really doesn't exist.

What I don't understand in all this madness is why is everyone trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist and when has Twitter become a necessary part of Internet infrastructure?

I should probably write my own post about this...

Well, contrary to popular notion I don't blog for attention. Apart from linking to my site on my profile pages I do next to nothing to actually increase its popularity. I admit I used to care, but I've been writing without thinking of anybody else for a while now.

I'm too lazy to look up the paper, but at WWW2007 conference it was clearly shown that spam sites do get linked to by non-spam ones. If people have such a hard time distinguishing spam, it's hard to imagine that you couldn't game this system too and in fact people do.

However. it does seem this is the best idea we came up with so far.

Great post Stowe, but I have a minor nitpick. Some of us make resolutions not because we thought it would improve our happiness, but because we think changing ourselves in certain ways would make us better people.

Happiness might be externally conditioned, but I simply refuse to accept that who I am and what kind of person I am is not mostly defined by what I do. And that is something I can at least somewhat control.

I find all prototyping tools I found so far lacking in one way or other. But worst is probably still better than none.

You did notice that first one isn't a Nike ad, right? :)

Most companies I can think of do this fairly regularly, often with just small touches. So I don't think Pepsi is special when it comes to this.

I'm neither designer nor brand specialist, so I can't judge on how they execute.

Depressing.

It's also easier in a way that sea cruises are much slower, which makes it much easier to adapt to new timezone.

Coding standards by whom? The only relevant standard is the one agreed upon by your team.

And it's not just me saying that. It's also Yahoo on @media Ajax ;)

Still, nice tip for those who'd like that.

WTF? It doesn't, since there's no need to. " works just fine everywhere in Javascript including jQuery.

Dear god, that makes no sense. Of course I meant should instead of shouldn't.

What's a best community? Best by which metric?

As to the last paragraph, it very much depends on the purpose and goal of the website. MySpace is unsuable and repulsive to me, which is fine, but it pretty much means that a website, that would want to target me or people like me, shouldn't be significantly different than MySpace.

No.

Congratulations. I wish I could go too, since given chance, I'd move to Stockholm in a heartbeat.
