I think Andy Clarke pretty much nails my opinion on Opera’s foolish decision to implement -webkit-features.

Today, we’re introducing Google Drive—a place where you can create, share, collaborate, and keep all of your stuff. Whether you’re working with a friend on a joint research project, planning a wedding with your fiancé or tracking a budget with roommates, you can do it in Drive. You can upload and access all of your files, including videos, photos, Google Docs, PDFs and beyond. ¹

I wonder if this will give Dropbox serious competition or not? Too me it’s a no brainer to not trust Google with my entire digital self, but I not sure everyone else thinks that way.

UPDATE: It’s worth quoting Google’s own ToS: (my emphasize)

When you upload or otherwise submit content to our Services, you give Google (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as those resulting from translations, adaptations or other changes we make so that your content works better with our Services), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our Services, and to develop new ones. This license continues even if you stop using our Services (for example, for a business listing you have added to Google Maps). Some Services may offer you ways to access and remove content that has been provided to that Service. Also, in some of our Services, there are terms or settings that narrow the scope of our use of the content submitted in those Services. Make sure you have the necessary rights to grant us this license for any content that you submit to our Services.²

So the question remains, is Google really, really a company that you would trust with all your computer files?

I’m excited to share the news that we’ve agreed to acquire Instagram and that their talented team will be joining Facebook.

For years, we’ve focused on building the best experience for sharing photos with your friends and family. Now, we’ll be able to work even more closely with the Instagram team to also offer the best experiences for sharing beautiful mobile photos with people based on your interests.¹

Is it just me or is that last part really scary? Looks like I’ll have to re-evaluate my use of Instagram.

This article¹ has been lying around in my Instapaper cue for what feels like half an eternity. I while ago I finally read it and it contained som really good stuff on sessionStorage, localStorage and the storage event.

kent is probably my all time favorite band. Yesterday they released a new single called 999¹. So far I think it’s a great song. It’s an unusually euphoric, almost Coldplay like, ”freedom rock” song. It’s definatly worth checking out.

There is also a video that you can watch:

If you’re interested in the new iPad, you should definitely check out Gruber’s review of it.

Some people have problems with their Apple IDs being associated with the wrong email addresses. MacWorld has a solution.

Over the last year, I have moved all my non-code writing to Markdown format. I don’t even have Microsoft Word installed on my laptop anymore.¹

An inspiring post about the greatness of Markdown².

It’s funny because it’s true.¹

Could this maybe be Apple’s idea of the future in video editing? Instant wireless previewing on the HDMI-input-enabled monitor of your choice. (Check the iMovie tab.)
