Is UberConference better than Hangouts? Seems like hangouts would let you talk and edit documents as well.

So I wonder how long these last with lawn mowers.... I get they are stuck in the ground, but how long before they are covered with dirt and grass clippings. Stepped on and run over (some people have relatively heavy mowing equipment). Looks like it might become a high maintenance fixture.

While we are talking about ads, can we talk about Gizmodo ad videos that play over the article (and in background tabs that I open from the homepage), I !@#$ hate those things - they make me want to leave you.

Why does it look like the tracks are missing behind the shot of the rover all the way to the right? - maybe this was taken not just from shots stitched together side to side, but top and bottom as well?

No video for me, just a screen with some photos from 2013 tiled out... and I joined in 2004.

"In the process, they are removing old objects—even whole pieces of architecture—before local authorities have the time and resources to catalog and protect what is re-emerging there."
