I never liked skype to start with. I only had it for online game play. I don't do that anymore.

The best you can do is remove any personal information and let it sit.

I do have a refurbished, slightly crippled Mac Mini but I don't use it very much. I've used Macs before but I've yet to experience the "wow" factor that the fan boys claim.

The Java founder assesses how well Oracle has managed the technologies it acquired in the four years since it bought Sun. I guess he's marking on a curve?

As HTML5 becomes more popular, the misinformation surrounding this new standard grows. It has become a catchall phrase for the mobile Web, and its features and capabilities are widely misunderstood. Is HTML5 really rising in popularity?

DuckDuckGo is sometimes portrayed as the “anti-Google”, but that’s not quite right. It’s more like bizarro-world Google. It looks similar, it acts similar — but in the end, it has totally different motives. DuckDuckGo aims to offer up the simplicity and functionality of the big search engines, minus all the creepy tracking stuff. The company outlines everything they do/don’t store right here, but most importantly: it doesn’t use tracking cookies, and it doesn’t save a record of your IP. Search, without being searched

Scientists set up equipment in Hawaii to discern the true hue of the dark side. They say that blue light reflected from Earth turns turquoise when it bounces off the moon. "There is no dark side in the moon, really. As a matter of fact it's all dark."

"New reports have determined that the scientists were, in fact, under the influence of highly potent LSD while postulating the turquoise color of the moon's dark side. The claims were investigated after one line in the footnotes cited a "shimmering, majestic space flounder wearing a rainbow top hat" swimming in the turquoise moonlight."

Android is really beginning to challenge Windows on the desktop - but this war will be long and drawn out and the conclusion far from certain. Assuming they can fight over the pile of corpses of OSes that have battled Windows in the past

Article says: Android is really beginning to challenge Windows on the desktop Really?! Shouldn't Android have even 1% market share on the desktop before some idiot makes that claim?

2014 looks to be even bigger than 2013 for Microsoft, with the company expected to ship a number of major updates to existing products as well as expanding into new product lines thanks to the Nokia acquisition. Loads of stuff: some good, some less good

There are some interesting things to come, but as far as I am concerned, the continued search (or lack of decision) for a new MS CEO stopped being interesting a while ago.

In a great presentation at the AT&T Dev Summit’s Design track last week, AT&T’s Doug Sillars said that it’s time to “drop the word ‘mobile’ from ‘Web development.‘” We say “Amen” to that. In fact, we’d take it one step further: it’s time to drop the word “mobile” from the phrase “mobile developers.” If you're an 'X' developer, you're expedable

In this post, the Windows Phone Store certification and policy teams share the most common certification failures we see as apps go through the certification process. This post also covers steps you can take to avoid these failures. Armed with this knowledge, you can increase your chances of passing certification the first time and publishing your app to the Store on schedule. "It ain't the melody and it ain't the music.

Congrats!
Are they just tinkering around with it, or do you think they might actually build something shareable?

You can get beta keys from JoinProjectSpark.com[^] - the designer requires Windows 8.1 and is currently quite restricted....but the "brain designer" AI writing tool is actually quite a lot of fun.
