Related question: If you have something like an Amazon e-gift card emailed to someone, how do you know it was received and not simply eaten by a spam filter?

Specific to an Amazon e-gift card. Amazon sends you an e-mail when the recipient redeems the card.

Comment What standards? (Score 1) 97

The problem isn't really the browsers, it's the standards that can't keep up. If the browsers had to wait for the standards to be finalized, IE 6 would still be relevant. If the specification is incomplete what are you supposed to do, watch your users switch to a different browser, or implement the proposed feature in the best way you know how. Maybe the standards need to move to a rapid release cycle?

Comment Re:Qwerty in the living room (Score 1) 143

I run XBMC with just a keyboard all the time. I have a Logitech DiNovo Mini in the living room, and I almost never use the mouse mode, which leaves me with just the functionality of the keyboard. The only real issue I've run into is that the Mini doesn't have function keys. So I couldn't close the Netflix plugin, autohotkey fixed that right up.
