I was thinking exactly this!

The problem with doing something like this is that the site owner will probably take it down within 24 hours.

However... if the site owner cannot see it. Well well well.. could be up for days.

Typically the first person to view the page will be the owner. They want to check everything looks alright. Would be interesting to see the results of something like this.

This would be so much more awesome if you could assign the class to a container div. Then on each page reload it would randomly add content - be it paragraphs, headers, imgs, lists, tables etc.

This would be a fantastic tool for testing templates against a wide variety of random content. When making a template for clients to use you can never be too sure what they are going to add so you do your best to style everything. Getting random content on each page load would really solidify this testing.

Adding a class to individual elements... I don't find this too useful.

When I grew up my dad wanted me to be a business man. When my kid grows up I want him to be a patent troll.

When I was young the money was in innovation. Now the money is in stifling it.

I agree though. Tedious describes this perfectly.

This happened to me 2 weeks ago. I put it down and walked away waiting to get reinspired. I am starting to get hankerings to pick it up and power through but not enough to go again quite yet. I know when motivation strikes I am 50% complete and I am a relatively short distance to the finish line.

I doubt it.. I brought this up on Skype forum and the thread was deleted 5 minutes later...

EDIT: I queried the deletion with a moderater. Was informed it had been moved to the forums admin area to be discussed at their next meeting. He said he agreed it looks like a serious problem so they are aware.

Really scary.

I wanted to see if i could find someone. Went onto twitch.tv. Picked a random stream. Got email. Looked up Skype id from email. Searched for skype id which gave me the IP and the small town where they currently reside.

Its worrying how easy this makes it to find someone.

This isn't really Yelp's fault. Sites like this always have fake reviews mingled in with those that are real. The solution?

Assume people with a 4-5 star review are competent. GET MULTIPLE QUOTES. Doesn't matter if they have 5*, if you feel something is off with them they you avoid.

You also will find out when a quote is too cheap/too expensive and reduce your risk to getting conned.

Don't blame the internets or Yelp. Blame youself for not doing due diligence.

Make 10B in 8 months and single handedly pull Ireland out of recession... wow...

Its almost funny until you read how despite needing funding he expects investors to pay for hotel and presumably travel so he can pitch. You then have the NDA on top of that.

I wonder what the idea is... probably something new and down to earth. Like a thimble with an edge so people with short / no fingernails can open a can of drink and avoid potential injury. I would buy that!

We had a post the other day about how important a name is. Here is another example of the name not being important. I mean what has "team treehouse" got to do with learning or web development?

To the article I am glad to see them get funding. I use the service and think its great.

I think a 4 day work week can definitely work, especially with motivation and guarding against burn out. Main issue is that the rest of the world works 5 days a week which in many sectors can create problems.

In my social circle of non-tech people everyone uses their phones for texting and calls. Thats about it. Most have smart phones, a few play games or use their phone as an mp3 player. That really is about it.

I only use texting, calls and google maps for when i am lost. Tablets i understand but this "mobile revolution" I don't understand. I find using the web / webby apps is painful on mobiles due to poor internet speeds.

Many of my friends still don't get twitter, let alone checking in at various locations.

I would agree that Google and Facebook need to get on top of mobile but from where i am at least there isn't a massive hurry.

The prices on his website are rediculous.

thesearchservice.com - 2 million!

You don't even get searchservice.com with this domain. Simarly .org and .net are not even registered meaning after buying this you could be facing competition from similar names.

I find squatters are the bane of the internet. My little brother had a small gaming message board where he and his friends would prepare for games. No seo value.. long domain name. Parents credit card expired and we didn't notice. Domain name expired briefly. Tried to register it again as soon as we noticed. Someone else pinched it. Offered to sell it back to us for $1000. It has been for sale for the past 2 years with no interest..

The squatter has got nothing from it. My kid brother lost his domain name.. I think the majority of squatters are scum tbh.

The only reason I haven't brought a Windows Phone is because I am stuck in a contract at the moment. Once that expires I WAS going to get one.

I am not sure any more. I have an iPad and I am used to free system updates. I expect to get IOS updates until it becomes impractical for the specifications of my device to run the next IOS version. Basically, I expect IOS updates for 3-4 years.

I expected the same with my Android phone. Alas.. that didn't happen. I got one update after a year and am still on some outdated version of Android. This is why I won't be getting another Android device.

I figured Windows Phone would be more like the iPad where you get updates for a couple of years. I thought that the cash cow was the app store, not the OS so keeping everyone that can be on the same version of the OS would be very beneficial.

In short.. if WP7 users get left behind it would really put me off getting a Windows Phone 8 phone. What is the point when I will almost certainly be abandoned by the next update.

I don't post any personal information with my JohnnyFlash alias. I like my privacy :)

Thanks for the warning though.

My company is going to ignore the law until someone pull's us up on it. This law will severely restrict our ability to analyse how users are interacting with our product. This law will compromise our ability to further improve our product and disadvantage us against foreign competitors.

Our company doesn't track users off the site, we anonymise data so it cannot be tracked back to an individual... as far as we are concerned the law shouldn't apply to how we make use of cookies.

The fine is up to £500k. Realistically.. the fine for a small company is more likely to a few thousand. It would be better to pay a few k a month in fines than lose 90% of our user data. If we implement this we might as well stop developing our product.
