I agree. There are lots of usability issues with the website. However this still one of the better websites compare to all the government websites.

I have some eye complications like dry eyes and due to this my doctor advised me cut down use of smartphone as much as I can. My first thought was to just get a feature phone and dump smartphone altogether. But there are few things about smartphone that I can not really give up now.

1. Maps - maps come in very handy at times when you are stuck in some unknown area and want to find way home. 2. Browser - to be able to check anything on the web is also very important to me. 3. Access to online storage and email.

Basically I gave up all social media, all smartphone gaming and other unwanted apps and use smartphone for basic internet access device. I have cut down my smartphone usage from 3 hours a day to about half an hour a day.

Advice to author. Create iOS and Android versions of games ASAP. You are just hours away from getting cloned on app stores.

I second that. I have been using Splitwise for few years and absolutely love the product.

Site just crashed my IE8.

Generally I have had nicer experience with most sites developed under Obama administration like wh.gov and such.

Congratulations to the HM team. I would love to hear how the journey has been.

One question: When a friend send me an app do I have option to say 'NO' before app installs itself?

I am not sure if anybody would know here but do we need to take permission from FAA for doing this kind of stuff?

I hope they teardown camera assembly also and give some details on new Apple designed optics.

Related: Where is HN hosted? My best guess is EC2.

You can give user an option to opt into (by default selected) SMS advertizing with local offers.

It is good to see many HN meta services started like Heacker Monthly, Newsletter, Hackerslide etc. It kind of speaks for popularity and value of HN. I am feel really good to be a part of such community.

The new GAP logo is really awful. I agree with you 100%. But this thread really doesn't really belong here.

Finally facebook is making use of Divyashot it bought few months ago.

I think now Skype has some real competitor. This is also going to add lots of value to Google Apps product.

Very cool! They have just made themselves visible to 500 million people.

At least now Gruber believes that Android is cool!

I think the session should be live streamed or recorded and hosted somewhere for non valley people. pg?

Oh yeah, McAFee has given blue screen to me many times. I bought Dell laptop for me and my gf. After McAFee free one year subscription expired, we decided to move to different anti virus. Once we uninstalled McAfee, both of our laptops got blue screens and crashed. My friend also had same experience with two of his computers.

Google Public Policy twitter account just tweeted that "@NYTimes is wrong. We've not had any convos with VZN about paying for carriage of our traffic. We remain committed to an open internet."

"See my comments in RED" still rocks.

Female hackers are only present in SyFy Movies, TV Shows and books.

I mostly juggle between what I call work thoughts and life thoughts. Work thoughts are strictly work related and life thoughts are buying house, paying mortgage, buying car, paying loan, planning vacations and the like. I am having this trouble only after I got married.

Does anybody having similar problem? Which ones should be your shower thoughts: work thoughts or life thoughts?

I think my problem could be resolved if I start taking shower twice a day!

Any numbers on how many sold so far?

I am returning mine because of proximity sensor problem. Exchanged twice, still having issue. Sometimes I feel that my ears are not designed for iPhone 4 or thats probably what Steve Jobs would say.

I would agree with you on that but I need cable for occasional news and live broadcasts/award shows/talk shows type things. Otherwise I can totally live off of Netflix and Hulu.
