I've recently built a tagging system based on SKOS [1]. This supports hierarchical as well as associative relationships between tags (while not strictly requiring either), as well as ad hoc groups of tags.
While SKOS was intended for more formal vocabularies, I've found its use as a basis for a tagging system makes exploration and navigation of a topic area reasonably organic, as it allows users to specify relationships only as they see as fit and intuitive.
1 year-old and/or 3-year-old wake me up between 5:45 and 6:15. (If my 6:30 alarm wakes me instead, I get up quickly and search for diabolical mischief.)
Make breakfasts.
Shower & dressed.
Begin commute and browse dailies. Fortunately I'm not dealing with different timezones at the moment, so email can wait 'til I get to work.
Vim and Emacs are quite well-suited for textual manipulation of very large data files. Use of a macro is a very pleasant alternative to piping the file through sed/awk/etc. for a once-off transform.
Not plain timestamps, but there is such as thing as a trusted Time Stamping Authority which will sign a document hash + timestamp to prove that information existed before a certain date.

I was quite a fan of listening to pink noise at work but found after a while that I started to get aural hallucinations. It felt like my mind was finding patterns in the noise that weren't there.
Probably harmless, but it did make me wonder about any lasting effects of extended exposure.
The nose was "only" pitched 15 degrees up. The descent was at 40 degrees. With considerable turbulence, and a storm raging outside even the rapid descent may not have been apparent (body-wise).
As the article mentions, aviation experts are rightly bamboozled by this.
The closest I've come to flying was Chuck Yeager's AFT on the Commodore 64, but even then I knew presence of engine power does not preclude a stall if your pitch is extreme.
Without knowing that Bonin had been pulling-back the whole time, I guess Robert and Dubois were searching for non-obvious reasons (and struggling, with the altered cognition under stress that the article also mentions).
"According to Camilleri, not one of US Airway's 17 Airbus 330s has ever been in alternate law. Therefore, Bonin may have assumed that the stall warning was spurious because he didn't realize that the plane could remove its own restrictions against stalling and, indeed, had done so."
Your alternatives are for the income that hosting advertisements may provide. They are not alternatives for the service that advertising itself provides.
And for that I offer in place of unsolicited advertising:
- Classifieds
- Directories
- Brochures
- Information centres
- Expos
- Local bulletins
- Store signage
- Word-of-mouth
- Sponsored events
- Trade publications
Of course these may well not have the bang-for-buck of unsolicited ads, but I dream that one day the visual pollution of third-party advertising will not be as accepted.
To be fair, their meaningless is their value. Using "real world" names may distract from the logic being discussed or unreasonably suggest that the logic may fit only a particular scenario.
Also, the user may not always be picking their own country and it may be unreasonable to ask the average user to find, say, San Marino on a world map. While you could of course restrict the use of a map-style picker to only the users-own cases, it would be nice to have a somewhat standard picker for all occasions.

[email protected] and [email protected] yield the same background colour. Isn't the point of this to detect accidental transpositions? You may want to use a simple hash in your algorithm.
The input field may need some explanatory text to alleviate the user's astonishment as to why the field is cycling colours in the first place -- it's a very unusual UI quirk.
Also, I suspect your colour palette is not friendly to the colour blind.
Edit: This is reminiscent of Lotus Notes' password hieroglyphics and Chroma-Hash: http://foxxtrot.github.com/Chroma-Hash/. The latter has been discussed on HN several times.
It seems your first comment to invoke the shadowban was a link to your own site with a (rather contentious!) post calling-out famous physicists as murderers.
Does it integrate with any HRMS or payroll systems? It may be a nice bolt-on to such systems which have rather dated interfaces, and would allow you to target past the small business focus you have at the moment.
"There’s really only one way to solve an email reputation problem. You have to make an effort to clean up your list. Here again I was thankful for the awesome reporting built into Aweber. I was able to quickly track down which subscribers were receiving my emails via @gmail.com addresses but not opening the email."
Does this reporting use some method other than tracked image loading (which GMail disables by default)?
