It really is nice to use proprietary protocols for every form of communication. /s

People don't use protocols—people use tools.

uhh,ok.. and tools can implement protocols. I think the gp's point was that many of these tools don't lend themselves to interop and portability, important things to factor in when evaluating a tool.

EDIT: I don't know if his point really applies here with these saas tools. From my experience, these usually offer at least a standard way to export your data in case you want to jump ship later.

I'm sorry, dozed of for a moment. What was I reading?

Not using Continuous Integration and Deployment? OP: Might I suggest https://circleci.com.

There need to be more of these. Thanks for sharing.

It would be better to pick one and go into how it's used, the benefits, drawbacks, etc, rather than a link with a sentence or two.

Am I the only one who can't scroll on this site? Wha happen?

Hrmm, not happening for us. What browser are you on?

Same thing here, no scroll bar, arrows and page up/down don't work.

At an office PC, Windows / Chrome v. 26.0.1410.43

Weird...I'm using the same setup and same exact Chrome version, and it's working fine for me.

Edit: Actually, my Chrome version is "26.0.1410.43 m".

Good to know, thx! We're looking into it now :)
