dont' blame the tool. If a website is ugly, should we ban the internet?


Arguably, yes.


I think I don't have an account with them. But after reading this news, I wanted to make sure I don't have any inactive account with network solutions. So I went to their website and did a forgot userid/password and entered my email address. It appears my email is on their system because it says they have sent an email with my user id.

Its been about 15 minutes and I have not received any email from them. I have checked inbox, spam box..not its not here. I hope they did not activate an inactive account I may have with them or worse I hope they did not create an account I never had in the first place.


can somebody tell me what quora.com is? is it like stackoverflow.com for programming only or for everything like yahoo answers? I don't want to sign up to find out. :)


As belluchan said, "as a scummy, low-quality content farm."

Which, I suppose, makes this site a "scummy, low-quality content farm farm."


Its experts-exchange v2.0 with more topics.


You reminded me of a ted talk. Lifting your arms up for two minutes boosts ones confidence. The speaker recommends that before interview if one can find a place to lift their arms for 2 minutes (like in a restroom), the interview goes much better.


Sure. Even better if you are raising it up like you are pumping your arms for victory.

I once did a qigong practice in front of the kid. The kid copied me, stretched his arms all the way up, on tiptoes, with a big grin on his face. Obviously, I learned more from the kid than the kid learned from me.


here's said talk http://www.ted.com/talks/amy_cuddy_your_body_language_shapes...

ps: I'll add that doing physical activity gives good posture for "free". I'll suggest anybody to gradually go up to sets of 10 {pushups, crunches, squat} and a bit of stretching hip and back, and shoulder. It won't take long, 10 crunches ~= 30 seconds, will make you warm, relaxed and stand straight.
