"Java for example allows you to access the local filesystem (provided your applet is signed and the user gives it appropriate permissions). As far as I know, you can't still do that with javascript. However, that is not related to how widely Java is currently used. It may influence how much the java plugin will be used in future, but not how much it is used at present time." - Alessandro Bahgat

"Well, this certainly will help the Java plug-in become even less "widely used". Isn't this a self-fulfilling prophecy?" - Alessandro Bahgat

"Not surprising, Java is getting more and more like a Cobol for year 2000+" - Alessandro Bahgat

I'm not sure that I could cope with a choice like that. Could you? - Alessandro Bahgat

I love the new features, love the new design, but using the imperial system for height and weight is sooo American. - Alessandro Bahgat

It must have been amazing for those that were there to see it. - Alessandro Bahgat

Google paying users to participate to a field usability study. I'd be very curious to see the results. - Alessandro Bahgat

I like it, especially the Red/Green buttons (points 5 and 6). - Alessandro Bahgat

My MacBook would certainly look great with those! - Alessandro Bahgat

Well, now I really want an Android phone! - Alessandro Bahgat

Netflix is one of those services I'd really love to see in Italy. Too bad it wouldn't work. - Alessandro Bahgat

I've been looking 4 an iPhone client which supports this feature but have come up empty handed so far, ideas? - JSLeFanu

Well I've been in touch with the developers and they say they will be adding it. Oddly this client seems to be overlooked in most of the newsreader review round-ups but I'd highly recommend it. It's "big in japan" apparently. - JSLeFanu

Not bad, not bad at all :) Now we can create a story from Google searches. - Alessandro Bahgat

Isn't it the weirdest of houses? - Alessandro Bahgat

This country never stops surprising me... - Alessandro Bahgat

I want one of those! - Alessandro Bahgat

Smush.it uses optimization techniques specific to image format to remove unnecessary bytes from image files. It is a "lossless" tool, which means it optimizes the images without changing their look or visual quality. After Smush.it runs on a web page it reports how many bytes would be saved by optimizing the page's images and provides a downloadable zip file with the minimized image files. Do not link to the smushed images on Smushit.com since they will only be available there temporarily. Instead, download the zip file containing the smushed images for your web page and replace your image files with those files. - Alessandro Bahgat

Probably among the best ones - Alessandro Bahgat

Did they clone uservoice.com or vice versa? - Alessandro Bahgat

Certo! Non dubitavi, vero? :D - Alessandro Bahgat

Ma il sito fa cagare - Daniele Castagna
