Hearsay: During WWII the code breakers of Bletchley Park were provided with benzedrine tablets.

I would miss HTML formatted emails after a while.
A promising alternative is Muttator (http://www.vimperator.org/muttator).
Muttator is from the same team that made Vimperator, a Firefox add-on that changed the way I browse the web.

Brafton's editorial reads like a press release from Mircosoft Bing. The premise is that Bing is growing in the month of August and that Google is losing market share. The analysis of Bing being a contender seems very premature considering many technical people reviewing their analytics will see a minute portion of their traffic comes from Bing vs. Google.
This kind of promotion is unlikely to make developers make the switch, but I am interested -- maybe the short-term lose of Google could be explained by the gain of Duckduckgo. That's the bias I would editorialize.

High-rewatchability is a poor metric for a good film.
Examples of movies I would highly rate but would not want to rewatch: Schindler's List (1993), Hotel Rwanda (2004), Blindness (2008), Amistad (1997), etc...

I suggest trying DuckDuckGo, a search engine that doesn't track you. Same instructions but replace the search url with:
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%s

If you have to be a pedant and tell people to use a multiplication symbol, then use a multiplication symbol. The symbol is × (×), not the letter X.

That looks ugly to me.
I much prefer CoffeeScript, because plain JS makes me mad, and CoffeeKup (http://coffeekup.org/) for generating DOM content.

Excellent points. According to the project site, "Lua" is correct.
> "Lua" (pronounced LOO-ah) means "Moon" in Portuguese. As such, it is neither an acronym nor an abbreviation, but a noun. More specifically, "Lua" is a name, the name of the Earth's moon and the name of the language. Like most names, it should be written in lower case with an initial capital, that is, "Lua". Please do not write it as "LUA", which is both ugly and confusing, because then it becomes an acronym with different meanings for different people. So, please, write "Lua" right!

I've done some testing with the previous version of Mezzanine (0.12?) and preferred it to Django-CMS. I preferred mezzanine to django-cms but with this latest version does not contain the css files in the static directory, which leave the populated demo version broken.
I was also unsure how to get (South?) to update to my Postgre db instead of the dev.db.
