It's not just gays who read Queerty. We've been noticing that many many Prop. 8 supporters have been commenting on the site this week about how horrible and viscious it is that gay people are protesting and boycotting them. We're not alone, The Mercury News notes that you're calling this week's actions "mob justice" and "McCarthyism". First off, thanks for your comments– it shows you're willing to engage in a discussion, even if sometimes "discussion" ...

本周 Google 精心策划了自己的 iPhone 语音识别搜索应用发布活动,该应用尚未发布就已经引起了不小的震动。但该应用到目前为止仍没有像 Google 承诺的那样出现在 App Store(《纽约时报》的报道称该应用预计于本周五出现在苹果的 App Store ),并且 Google 还撤下了该应用在 YouTube 上的演示视频(不过 YouTube 上的 Google Channel 页面上仍有这一段视频)。 这的确有些奇怪。曾有其他搜索引擎的供应商告诉我,有时候他们等待苹果批准应用的时间长达几个月,并且期间苹果不会给出任何解释。但 Google 和苹果的关系更密切,Google 的 CEO 施密特也在苹果的董事会,而且 Google 的应用是很多用户期待的。 但现在一定出了什么问题,而且是那种会让苹果大发脾气的那种(苹果公司对于新闻界的态度十分古怪)。 值得注意的是,上周我们的报道(苹果正在打造某种搜索引擎? )称苹果可能正在为 iPhone 开发某种搜索引擎,如果它是真的,它与 Google 的语音搜索应用之间是否存在竞争关系尚不得而知。尽管 Google 愿意把 iPhone 当宠儿,但如果任何公司提供了与苹果自家的产品相竞争的应用,苹果都会坚决说 NO 。 无论如何,我们都希望一觉醒来就可以在 App Store 看到 Google 免费的语音搜索应用。 摘译自:[TechCrunch]

Two lucky guys who normally work behind a desk each got a full week of paid time off to go to Arizona and help the Red Feather Development Group with a straw bale house project on the Hopi Reservation. In the Arizona heat, they learned hands-on about straw bale building techniques and the unique culture of the friendly Native American Hopi Tribe.

At the annual Business for Sustainable Responsibility conference last week, almost 500 CEOs and business leaders were asked whether an Obama administration would have a positive impact on advancing a corporate responsibility agenda and helping usher in a more sustainable economy generally. Approximately 90% think an Obama administration will positively impact a business responsibility agenda. About two-thirds of respondents suggested that more socially responsible business practices could have eliminated or lessened the current financial crisis. ...

It is getting dangerously close to Halloween, and I decided to try something a little different. I prepared a large collection of my Halloween items all together in the seasonal department at Electric Pixels. It's my belief that placing related items together may result in more convenience for the customers, and perhaps even more sales. We'll find out after Halloween. The Halloween items on display include: CandyGiver - a special gadget that will throw streams ...
