Suggestion #3: "Start developing original content again. I never really understood why Yahoo got out of the content development business in the first place. My guess is it got a severe case of Google envy and decided to heck with creating content when you can make a fortune off other people's. It's time to concede the 'starting point of the Web' to Google and focus on becoming the 'premier Web destination.'" - Amy Gahran
"TV stations in New Orleans learned a lot from Katrina three years ago, when some stations were forced off the air and out of town by the hurricane that flooded the Crescent City. Some of what the stations had implemented since Katrina came in handy Sunday and Monday as Hurricane Gustav hit the Gulf Coast and moved inland. Here are some of the stories that emerged Tuesday, after Gustav had moved on." - Amy Gahran
Damn -- OpenClip provided iPhone copy and past -- sort of. Until the 2.1 version of Iphone firmware broek it. "Yes, it's true. I mentioned before that this was definitely a possibility, but I don't believe it is an inevitability. But anyway, lets define breaking: "Apps that use OpenClip will no longer be able to copy and paste between applications. However, applications can still utilize a persistent way to store data inside the application, meaning that copy and paste within the app will still work fine. And on top of that, apps that utilize only one form (either copy or paste) can disable interface elements when Apple axes OpenClip. "However, even though apple is killing the concept behind the current OpenClip, that doesn't mean we can't change the concept. A shared clipboard could be stored in an Address Book card or even on a remote server. Those solutions aren't as good as the OpenClip implementation, but they aren't bad." - Amy Gahran
