'user name and password do not MATCH' ?? What are you crazy -- what system recommends that user name and password be the same?

Some other great airports to check out are Madrid, Munich, and even (shudder) Heathrow Terminal 5.

Standard note for Windows users -- if you get this message under windows

Mysql::Error: Can't create/write to file 'C:\path\to\Temp\#sql_1e70_0.MYI' (Errcode: 13): SHOW FIELDS FROM ...

It's entirely possible you have a virus scanner like McAfee that is blocking the creation of 'MYI' files.

Solution: add it as an exception under 'On Access Scanner:Properties:All Processes:Detection:Exclusions...' -- you can enable the folder or more robustly all files ending in MYI.

in Google Android: we want developers but… on Scobleizer
“I didn’t see ONE feature that will get normal people to switch from the iPhone.”

Normal people won't buy the iPhone! :)

As for other phones -- it'll be cheap. The iPhone has been out what, a few months and yes it's a great status quo. But if you compare what Android does vs pretty much any other phone, it starts looking pretty competitive I reckon.

Glad this has been thought about -- this idea just dawned on me this morning when reviewing the implications of microformats myself. Totally agree that, more broadly, the semantic web means your page fundamentally will be available for machine consumption, for better or worse. How to protect the worse seems to be the biggest issue confronting microformats currently.
