Syndicate (https://redalemeden.com/syndicate/) works similarly well for Safari.


Flickr lets you browse and search CC licensed photos. They also let you do the same for the Commons (public photos, such as those from The Library of Congress) and Getty Images.

I figure if someone's searching for a photo to use on their website, particularly a commercial website, they're not going to browse or search all of Flickr and hope the photos they like are CC licensed — they'll go straight to CC licensed content and pick from those.


Right...I don't know how frequent of a use-case that is. I know I certainly take advantage of it for my non-profit company. But first of all, I think the percentage of people who want to copy a photo as opposed to just looking/commenting on is relatively small. And the small slice of users who do want to copy a photo, a good percentage of them either don't care about honoring CC or feel that they don't need to worry about it (i.e. they want a photo just to use as their wallpaper).


I do this. I use http://www.flickr.com/creativecommons/by-2.0/ to search for CC licensed photos.

It's pretty useful when I'm looking for pictures to illustrate a blog post, or to put on my slides for a presentation (I prefer pictures to text).


And Instapaper works offline.


Sure, but the insurance excess would only be $0–$2,000.


Good point. Let's say the engine just dies for some reason and insurance doesn't cover it.


Atomic Web Browser (http://atomicwebbrowser.com/) can identify itself as IE, Firefox or Desktop Browser and is available on both the iPhone and iPad.


It's easy to imagine that someone like Osama would be hiding in a cave or like Saddam in a "spider hole", but hiding in populated areas isn't uncommon. Karadzic was also hiding in plain sight in Belgrade and Vienna while on the "run". He had, however, adopted a new identity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrest_and_prosecution_of_Radov...


He also participated in a few TV shows and no one recognized him.


It is is a lessons learnt.


Agree. I was using like as in "like totally," I realized it after I posted it but didnt have time to go back and correct it.


He also does through Readability (http://www.readability.com/). He's an advisor to Readability, Readability's iOS apps are based on the Instapaper iOS apps and Instapaper can be linked with Readability to provide Instapaper activity to Readability so that publishers can be paid. http://www.marco.org/2011/02/01/readabilitys-new-service


Instapaper has an API. There are at least five third-party Instapaper clients for Android available in the Marketplace. http://www.quora.com/Whats-the-best-client-for-Instapaper-on...


It's sIFR[1]. It was one of the more popular techniques for embedding custom fonts into pages, before CSS-based web fonts. It should degrade gracefully without Flash; it does for me, using ClickToFlash with Safari.

Unfortunately Chrome built-in plugin blocker is not smart enough, and neither is its FlashBlock extension.
