Google's controversial Street View project has photographed millions of miles of roads and paths across the world, but that doesn't mean everyone has accepted the company's camera-equipped cars with open arms. Were they trying to prevent it from finding the other Tardis?

Number one project on that list is written with a new, super-modern, object/functional programming language, called C.

Tell me more of this mysterious language.
Is it a dynamic, type-less, memory-managed, interpreted language (like all the cool kids use)?
Love the fact that they pushed all the myriad bindings until later.

And to boot, the grid examples had me rolling on the floor laughing.

Does it occur to people that the stable and useful stuff probably doesn't have a lot of changes going on and most people have already downloaded it, so it would never show up on the "trending" graph?
I guess it's useful though. It provides a list of time wasters to avoid.

Yeah, their methodology is pretty flawed for older programming languages. Just looking for searches, while it does show people fumbling with languages, doesn't cover people who don't need to Google to figure out a quick sort.
I'm mostly interested in the languages lower on their list - to see potentially new languages that might become popular.
Look at how MatLab is jumping up the list. Obviously it's the next major language.

Microsoft restores Web access to SkyDrive and Contacts but admits fixing an issue with Outlook.com is "taking longer than we hoped." "Methinks it is like a weasel."

Well, I'd be wailing if I depended on it. Luckily, there is still Gmail!

Nope. Elephanted. Definitely elephanted.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

We always need another JS UI framework. And a couple of CSS ones. And a few for server front-ends. And a dozen of ORMs.

A Microsoft-built YouTube app for Windows phones, shut down by Google in May and reintroduced by Microsoft this week, has been shut down by Google again. A YouTube spokesperson says “Microsoft has not made the browser upgrades necessary to enable a fully-featured YouTube experience, and has instead re-released a YouTube app that violates our Terms of Service.” Maybe if Google would - you know - just write one themselves?

I believe this violates US Antitrust Laws, and from what I heard, there is a Federal investigation into this, with a lot of charges building up.
