That's one of things I like about my job. Every line of code has to be reviewed by another developer.

It can't be checked into source control until it's been reviewed.

There are lots of benefits:

We all have to write readable code.

We can't just put in hacks.

You learn stuff. When reviewing others code you can ask why they did something in a certain way. Sometimes you'll learn about the benefit of coding in a certain way, or using a certain method / style / whatever.

This also has the benefit of redundancy. It means at least two developers know an area of the codebase. So if they're away there are no bottle necks, the other developer can also code that area.

I can't find anything on the Channel 4 site directly, but other news sources are confirming this story -

How about Sparklines? They're perfect for some sporting data.

I think Firefox also has the advantage of being Netscape Navigator's spiritual heir. Lot of people who used NN (when it was good), got used to it and were keen to keep on using it over alternatives.

Firefox's mantra of being lightweight also helped them as you could just install the plugins you wanted, not a load of stuff people thought you wanted or should have that could have got rolled in as standard.

I don't think there's anything wrong with Opera's business model.

Don't Firefox also get money through content partners (eg: Google Search?).

I'm aware that you have had to pay for Opera before - Wii points on the Wii, and also for the DS/DS Lite version of the browser.

Opera have always been at the cutting edge of web-standards. They're always good with the ACID tests.

There mobile versions are excellent and render stuff quickly and efficiently on all the mobile phones I've used and played with.

I like the simplicity and minimalism I don't have to spend time learning another interface as theirs is stripped down and minimalist.

It's also easy for me to use with less technical people. As it's not overwhelming unlike some similar tools, they can start using Basecamp straight away. I don't have to sit down and give them a walk through.

I also like how it's flexible. I don't have to adjust my workflow to their software.

This looks similar to BaseCamp. What does runway have to separate it out from the competition?
