The thing is upshot doesn't seem to trigger if portion of the screenshot is selected. Capturing the whole window works though.

Edit: someone has opened a github issue for this https://github.com/fwenzel/upshot/issues/28


Yes this was unintentional. Thanks for reporting this, I'll look into it!

I'll also need to add automated updates soon, or I can't notify people of updates ;)


I've been there 2 years ago and the lake is so immensely huge. Difficult to imagine how powerful the eruption that made it.


This is likely a service I'd use once in a while. Say I want to convert an html to mobi once per month, the listed pricings do not fit my use case. That means one conversion for 5 bucks.

I know it isn't easy to set up the pricings but would there be any "pay per use" for people like me?


I think the "eight week" translates well if the average daily usage is half an hour?


I'm not referring to the battery life, rather the slip-of-tongue wrt the name of the device.


If your kindle is non-3G, the content that you email to your kindle address will show up when it's connected to wifi.


A few of my friends use Endomondo to track their cycling activity and get the statistics, share routes. It works nice and basically you just need a smartphone with GPS and a bike and you're ready to roll.

They're cycling hobbyist though but bike quite often.


Is this akin to Thailand's lese-majesty or more broader? Seems backwards!


My guess is that lese-majesty is already illegal in Malaysia. The issue as I understand it is that this changes the burden of proof and broadens responsibility for such crimes and this is the big issue.

Imagine if someone accessed your unsecured wireless network and downloaded child pornography, and that absent evidence that you never did it, that was considered sufficient evidence to convict. That's the concern I see on this web site and it is scary. I hope it doesn't pass.


I am in Singapore and have been using it for a couple of months now. Works great.


Could it be that newspaper and subway system that were named Metro are both operating locally so there's no brand confusion while Metro AG has worldwide operations?


More than likely, but it is understandable that nobody would want to be associated with what microsoft is pushing out as a UI.

I also wonder though that it is this late stage that perhaps Metro AG is not that big of a global brand that the only confusion would be non existant. Especialy as there business appears as unrelated as any paper or tube train.

Still its PR for Metro AG and given the late stage maybe some potentual pay off from Microsoft, why else leave it until now.
