Dropped "being involved" in what I want to do to "doing" what I want to do. This involved moving to New York and running my own web consultancy, which failed miserably. Still a great decision.

I agree that glasses are the ultimate direction that mobile devices and AR are heading towards, but I don’t think holding a device up in the air is the worst interaction (compared to something strapped to your face with VR, even a helmet might be better?)

I think holding a device in the air and shining it around has a natural feel similar to a magnifying glass or a flashlight. More intuitive and not as intrusive. That’s just my opinion though.

Interesting! I was under the impression they were solely in control of the cache and the content. I will look further into this. Thank you.

It's true that loading fast and giving you the info you wanted directly from the search results page is a good thing. It is also important to realize there's a trade off happening where you're further locked into Google and their ecosystem. It's a pretty dramatic change to the way search has worked up until now. It more mimics the way internal webviews work in Apps like Twitter and Facebook apps.

If I'm reading this correctly, out of date versions of chrome (>10 weeks old) simply weren't loading sites like https://www.amazon.com/

This exact issue was affecting my girlfriend's machine a few days ago. I restarted chrome to update and the problem went away. At the time, I just thought it was an overly pushy new feature by google to force people to update.

Right now that's how I'm feeling in NYC.

Nice site! You should put the list of languages up front so we all stop pointing out what's missing.

But once data collection tools become easily abstracted and implemented anyone can create their own surveillance network to do as they please.

I used to love delicious. I loved seeing who bookmarked the same thing and following them for more similar content.
