Very useful reference. One of the few things I'm actually considering printing and tacking to my reference board behind my desk. - How to Start a Startup
See something that people are trying to do, and build something for them so their experience doesn't suck. YES. And this is why people who think about experience design are always going to have a big bucket o' ideas. - Playlist: Top 10 iTunes AppleScripts
Makes me wish I had a Mac. And an iPod. But I digress. - AlternativePhotography.com

"How To Ask Questions The Smart Way" has valid points to be made, but it is poorly written. The writer is clearly too full of himself. And that is where some of the problems begin. True professionals don't behave with arrogance like the writer posesses. He is really giving excuses for his poor behavior -- he wants it to appear like he is smarter than he is. Your mother taught you to not be rude, so don't be rude. Anything less is unexceptable and undefendable.
