I would agree with the comment about not investing enough in infrastructure, education, health care, etc., but disagree about too much government spending and lowering corporate taxes. Government spending on the above services are badly needed the money used for TARP was a waste. Corporations don;t need lower taxes as most of them use numerous loopholes to pay next to nothing anyway. - Anthony Pantekoek

Excellent article on designing (web) interfaces for business applications. As a developer who started during the time of Clipper and DBase, GUI design was never my strong point. This article creates a very good overview of the requirements of good design practices and good links to more detailed information. - Anthony Pantekoek

Is it past the point where the general public cannot do anything against these organizations? Have our political/legal systems become so totally corrupt that politicians are not concerned about losing votes? Most likely it is because this issue, however important it is, is not very well understood by the general public. - Anthony Pantekoek

Good article to introduce Javascript frameworks. - Anthony Pantekoek

"Was yesterday’s hurried Google Chrome OS announcement designed to steal some of Microsoft’s thunder ahead of a big launch on Monday? Robert Scoble certainly thinks so, and although he can’t say what that big news is, Long Zheng speculates that it might be the launch of the Microsoft Office web app. The timing is right: The Office 2010 Technical Preview ships this month to invitation-only testers and close integration of a new web app with the next version of Office is a logical move." - ~C4Chaos from Bookmarklet

Google Docs is great for simple editing and collaboration but it sorely lacks in more advanced word processing features. For business and enterprise users who produce/publish reports, advanced style editing is a must. Google needs to look at this area more seriously if it wants to be competitive in the office apps marketplace. - Anthony Pantekoek
