Where’s Spotify’s Web App?
I love web applications because all I need is a connection and a browser to run them. When I have to install something on my computer, it better be worth it. Spotify, the newest music service to hit the US, has debuted with much fanfare and I think it mostly deserves the hype.
COD Black Ops PC Memory Leak Widespread

With Google now entering the web-font market the guys over at font-face.com decided it was a lost cause to continue on their noble quest. Personally, I would be rather upset if I had invested 100s of hour of labor just to be overtaken by a giant. Hopefully Google will kick them over some pity capital.
