Besser Google Maps

They should have had this one nailed 10 years ago. Please...

You search for one thing and then another thing and then you look for directions from a frequently used starting point.

Maps guides you to your destination.

Next time you search, isn't it logical to offer suggestions starting with your most frequently used starting point? (As opposed to these most recent destinations which you've just finished visiting)

You got it - I have an unhealthy obsession with reducing keystrokes and mouse-clicks. Thanks Autohotkey. Thanks Rajat.

A Chance for Samsuck to Catch Up to Apple

Forget the phone, make it about something else.

How about a wireless charger that levitates the phone? And, while levitating, the phone spins, etc.

Cool?

Just put in some electromagnets and you're in biz. Come on Samsung, or do you want to suck forever?

Better Powerpoint

Listening M$?

Why can't we have polygonal text boxes?

You draw a rectangle, now, if the user holds the SHIFT key down and then drags a corner inwards, you start forming an L.

Why not? I wanted this the other day. I bet Mac Keynote can do this.
