Re: [IxDA Discuss] The New Facebook Redesign: The Beginning of The End?
*chuckles* The confusion doesn't stem from the concept (which is merely another way of expressing monopolist behavior) but the usage of the word absolve. Unless Google's truly gone off the deep end, I doubt they've been going around forgiving companies (what -- you're part of the dot-com bust? 30 Hail Mary's and go and sin no more...)

I don't know why you would have 'no idea what that actually means.' Google thinks very, very big. They are thinking of 2 things. 1. Mine data from users 2. Slow, steady and sure profit When Google buys out companies, they'll take a hit (like most wise companies) if they have to to ensure a steady and sure thing. Even if it means not making an immediate profit. 'Investment' is the word I'm looking for. Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)! To post to this list ...

Re: [IxDA Discuss] REQUEST: Stats on Mac IE 5 ...
Based on 63,000+ visits and 1,500,000+ page views over the past three months for one of our sites, we running into 0.44% IE on Mac usage -- that's against an audience where you might be concerned about those things.

I was hoping a few of you might have (or wouldn't mind asking around to get some) stats on visitors using IE 5 on the Mac. As a percentage of users, I expect it to be small but I have no hard numbers. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. Zack Frazier Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
