Your story can travel far beyond the local media

I've been meditating pretty much every day for a few months now, and the thing that got me into it was getsomeheadspace.com

I've found it incredibly helpful - having a different guided meditation to do on the train every day makes the London commute, whilst not blissful, certainly better.

Very small point.

Nowhere does the article state that any Canadians have ever been to the moon.

I haven't looked into this for a while - but isn't one of the advantages of the Kindle the ecosystme that surrounds it - in the same way that the iPod is not just an mp3 player - i.e. the iTunes ecosystem?

I'm not entirely sure about that. There are many books "available" on the internet, and this one appears to double up as a netbook. That's a pretty serious advantage over a plain "eReader".

these guys meet up regularly in my town (Brighton, UK). Might be worth talking to some of them via the forums: http://robotbrighton.ning.com/

fluffyemily on twitter runs the group so she might be of some help too.

Thanks Kev, basically I want to know how much it would take to build a basic robot. Nothing to complicated just a cute thing on wheels that could run around and not bump into stuff.

well one of the first robots that i saw one of these guys build does pretty much exactly that - so worth getting in touch - they know about where to get all the parts, pre-packaged kits and all kinds of stuff

I know this is getting off topic, but the original Monkey Island handled it beautifully

localized versions? Are there any domains like .in which mean "in" in other languages?

in is a fairly global word. If you play around in Google translate you will see that in is in in German and Dutch.

doesn't this solve one of the classic dieting problems of keeping the weight off?

Indeed it does. I've heard it costs an arm and a leg, though. :)

Reddit, with all its pun thread shenanigans, can be found at http://www.reddit.com

You know what the real test of HN is? Whether we can be redditish without becoming reddit. Until we can do that, we're just fooling ourselves.

Certain behaviors, such as long chains of sarcastic comments, should be avoided, even as a test. In fact, sarcasm itself seems pretty dangerous to a social site.

I think an exception should be made for posts to crap like 4 hour work week.

True. The article is more at home there as well.
