Today we're excited to announce several improvements in the way sharing works in Reader. You've given us lots of feedback on the way our experimental sharing features work and we heard you loud and clear: you want more control over your sharing. We've been working hard to create a more flexible way to let you choose who to share with; you can now manage a Friends list within Reader, separate from your Gmail chat contacts. ...

THE CREATIVE ART OF COMPROMISE After Lagaan, Taare Zameen Par and, now, Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, Aamir Khan has become synonymous with cleverly compromised creativity. AUGUST 2008 - ON THE FACE OF IT, OUR MAINSTREAM CINEMA spans a spectrum of stories. Love stories. Revenge stories. Stories about friendship and sacrifice and betrayal and honour and tradition. But the story that plays out behind the scenes has pretty much stayed the same: about the filmmaker ...

Nathan Bowers pointed me to this five year old Cool Tools entry on the book Art & Fear. Although I am not at all ready to call software development "art" -- perhaps "craft" would be more appropriate, or "engineering" if you're feeling generous -- the parallels between some of the advice offered here and my experience writing software are profound. The ceramics teacher announced on opening day that he was dividing the class into two ...

Simon said:
I've paraphrased what Jeff is saying here. It is really quite profound and extends way beyond software developer or ceramics. It permeates every aspect of our life. Don't know how play the guitar? Are you going to read about it, or pick up a guitar and start practicing? Don't know how to ride a motorcycle? You can read the manual, or take one out for a spin (carefully). You did sell enough stuff? You can study more about the product and the region and the demographics, or you can knock on another door or make another phone call.In general, life is about refinement... about constantly refining who we are and what we do. Someone said to me that you can't steer a parked car. So true... the car must be moving before you can get it going in the right direction.God does the same thing with us. He asks us to make disciples as we go into the world. We may be afraid and feel unprepared, but in the act of doing, He grows us and trains us and we become more able all the time.

Firefox 3 introduces support for web-based protocol handling so instead of a desktop application taking care of irc:, im:, ftp:, mailto: and other protocol link, these addresses are passed to a defined web service provided that it is capable of parsing and processing them. Firefox 3 ships with Yahoo! Mail and 30Boxes as bundled web protocol handlers (for email and calendars respectively) but you can easily add more as they become available. Google for example ...

Microsoft’s Windows Clipboard (The virtual space which stores your ‘cut/copy’ so you can ‘paste’ it), is perhaps one of the most underdeveloped features of Windows. Its ability to only store ONE item at a time has been the bane of many a Windows user who just needed something more than that. Fortunately, the community has responded and there are quite a number of good tools out there which will extend the functionality of the clipboard. ...

Not too long ago, Google announced that it was going to stop the development of its Browser Sync project. Browser Sync automatically synchronized bookmarks between different computers. Mozilla just announced a new version of its own bookmarks synchronization product, Weave, which was first announced last December as a Mozilla Labs product.
