@PhippsyB: EasyTether also works without rooting for the root-averse.

I'm surprised this came from a computer science student. When I'm working on a highly involved program, it takes a good 30 minutes to get my brain loaded up with all the different pieces I need to intertwine. Once I'm in that zone, I want to keep working for as long as I can. The last thing I'd want to do is step…

This advice needs some common sense hedging. If the "doing" is going to take 100+ hours of your time, you damn well better figure out if your idea is worth anything before you invest all that time into it. Maybe put 10-20 hours in and then evaluate. You have to be able to cut your losses early on ideas that turn…

@devnull: Hear hear.

@kellanpan, @chaimc: I appreciate the honesty in the add on's name. They could have called it "stealth browser" or something catchy and less honest.

About once a month, I use a Wet Ones citrus scent hand and face wipe on my Droid. The active antibacterial ingredient is benzethonium chloride. I'd be more cautious if I didn't have a screen saver film protecting the touch screen. It's worked with no ill effects for the last 6 months.

This looks pretty slick. The inclusion of hash tags, easy sorting, deadlines, and sharing are very nice. The video was strangely entertaining.

@mike_311: Apparently we have their answer — they don't care.

The non-gallery layout is so much better. Thanks for providing the link!

@brianary: AppBrain comments are okay save for two complaints about it using 3MB of system memory. (ave 4 stars)

@janhajk: I'd love to know if more LHers get it to work over 3G. I'm afraid to update Skype unless I'm sure. The old version would only work over 3G. Verizon wanted the wireless handicapped so they could prevent domestic Skype to landline/mobile calls. (moto droid, froyo)

@KamWrex: I do this and probably save about 2 min when putting away a dishwasher full of utensils and lose less than a second when getting utensils out. Not a huge time saver, but it adds up. I do keep a separate "sharps" drawer for the reason you point out.

@bdgbill: Nice feedback on Vignette. Yours and the other comments here have me sold.

Gmail just knocked off the #1 complaint on their feedback forum.

I've used this system for years, but I've found it has a flaw. Because I tend to grab my socks from the top of the pile, a subset of socks get worn out more quickly than the others. Soon enough, my once identical socks start looking pretty different, e.g. the faded worn black socks vs the crisp new black socks. It…
