What about for less common locales like Redondo Beach or La Jolla?
The slow performance occurs when you do multiple calls on the same page.
Saying yes to Google would provide a quick and stunning payout for relatively little work and instantly place the Friendster Web site in front of hundreds of millions of users across the globe. You still have to write all the logic your self, both the server-side and client-side which can be trickier if you're not a somewhat experienced _javascript_ scripter. What ties this all together is RSS so members of the media can subscribe to the news published about your company on their own terms and without being "pitched".
If your staff needs to know leave and time policies, it should be found in the HR handbook.
Google would have watched as Friendster fell apart, and it had nothing but search to fall back on.
Even as popular as tracking news via RSS is, the vast majority of companies that maintain "press" or "media" content on their web site do not offer an RSS option. In fact, the money they would have made would have made Friendster a bigger sale than the recent YouTube deal, at least as far as money is concerned.
What would be different?
Will it be possible to do wide screen? You only need to implement the ICallbackEventHandler interface and add two methods, one method for doing the work and one for sending the response back to the caller. Because of them, an official integration may well be on the way - Parparita wrote that "it's been great to get direct, concrete indicators for what we should work on next. Users of his Greasemonkey script will be able to receive feeds in Gmail. Letter writing, perhaps like calligraphy, is becoming a lost art.
I'm sorry Microsoft, but you killed performance for the sake of simplicity on this one.
That's where this Idea Bar post starts, because unfolding maps and trying to pinpoint your location is near impossible on those huge maps available from AAA or many others. We might have seen less of the small products we have seen from Google. But in this case it did and it took me several hours of trial and error before I came up with a solution that basically wasn't simple at all.
It's literally only one line of _javascript_ code to call it, and one function to receive the response. The time between the request and the response is the measure of performance of this feature, and it's actually not bad for single requests.
