Even worse, some companies prohibit alcohol consumprion over lunch even if you're not in the office.

I'm surprised Mint was successful at all, given that you have to give them your financial account login ids and passwords to use their system. Storing such data centrally seems like a big risk to me.

I wonder if paying for someone's lunch might, in some cases, might make them feel less friendly towards you. For example, if they feel as if they owe you something and are not in a position to return the favor. They may start avoiding you in that case.

Me too!

jhatcom | 17 years ago | on: Just in case anyone is still using YouTube for music

Just curious, isn't that site violating music copyright laws? I would be afraid to use it for fear of getting sued by the labels.

Hmmm, do you really want to provide the username and password to all your social networking sites to these folks? I don't.

Can someone tell me why cut and paste is so much in demand? I've been using my iPhone for months and never once needed it. Are folks editing documents on their iPhone?
