Welcome back from the weekend! Leading today we have First Round Review giving us some simple rules to launch your product. Johanna Rothman has part 3 of a series of posts about resource efficiency vs flow efficiency. As always, Johanna’s posts are always worth reading. By now you have probably already heard about the 16 characters that can crash Google Chrome, but if not, take a look and hopefully you can avoid that annoyance. Lastly, don’t miss the Tech Loops comic from xkcd. Almost all developers will find this funny and all too depressing.
As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
