A couple years ago. It was pretty well polished (tho I didn't attempt too much customization), but it should be at (don't quote me) $150 a site license. The client wanted a social network for their conference and... My main question for those clients who want social networks is not how, but WHY. Why do you think someone should join your social net, which not only requires an up front time investment from the user, but which is worthless if a critical mass of users is not reached? The extension itself looked pretty good, so more power to the JomSocial folk, but I think someones time would be better spent on ning and/or social marketing on existing networks.

I'm not saying I know the REASON e.g. your site gets a lot of I.E. traffic, just that without thorough analysis, it can be easy to misinterpret / misunderstand / mis-act-upon data like "MSIE dips below 50%." I guess you all made a good point, which is: It is just as easy to misinterpret the data collected on your own site.

I barely have time left for my Serious Business on /.!!

Measuring browser market share is kind of a tricky task since any one site can only tell you who visits *their* site, or the sites whose stats they aggregate.
Check out the stats here:
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Usage_share_of_web_browsers#Summary_table and you'll see that depending on whom you ask, IE has anywhere between 48 and 63% of the market share. Stats from sites that cater to developers (notably w3schools are skewed heavily* towards Firefox and Chrome, mainstream sites towards IE. Then there's the factors that lead to over-estimation, under-estimation... it's a sticky wicket for sure.

I say look at the aggregate results. Then I mention I have no idea how those aggregates are tabulated and weighted (Do W3Schools' stats have the same weight as WeTrack10mSites.com?). The only thing you can know for sure (more or less), is the traffic statistics on *your* site, which, to the developer, should be pretty much the only ones that matter. Pro tip: explain that last sentence to your clients.

*I don't really know if something can be "skewed heavily," but what the heck, you only live once, right?

or simply retweet and lol.

http://a.no/@"onmouseover=";$('textarea:first.val(this.innerHTML);$.('status-update-form.submit();"class="modal-overlay"/ which puts an overlay on the whole site, causing any mouseover to retweet. Personally I think this is pretty hilarious. If you mouse around a bunch you get something like this: http://i.imgur.com/qTPeK.png Yes I know you can see my acct. in the bg, I don't care; if it were private, why would I put it on twitter?

There isn't a sedan widely available on the US market that gets anything near 65mpg. Most cars get far less. There is a car in europe that gets 65 per gallon. I don't get your point. (?)

this is a PROTOTYPE that was built to win a contest!! Obviously it wouldn't meet safety standards and is not road legal for various reasons. The point is, if they put it into production, and lose, say, 35mpg in efficiency (I know nothing about automotive stuff, just for the sake of argument), it's still ~65mpg! Which would be revolutionary. As for <20k... that seems unlikely, and it seems much more likely that price and the cost of large scale auto manufacture is what will keep this off your local dealer's lot.

at least I hope you did there.

"He is not just there to talk with me because he has malware on his computer." I have this problem all the time!!! Sometimes I'm in a pub chatting up a bird, only to find out that she doesn't want to canoodle, she just has malware on her computer! If satire, kudos to you; if not, lulz at you.

that these decisions are being made by google and verizon, and not congress. They don't even pretend this is something that congress is going to have a say in. "...while congress keeps a watchful eye...." Yeah the best watchdog money can buy.
