Also looking for recommended paid/simple alternatives. Email only. Been using it for family email on a custom domain and am not looking forward to funding a dozen accounts every month for eternity.
This is exactly what I see. Run and e-commerce site with 175k different product pages. Each have a ton of differentiation and keywords. Huge investments is page metadata and sitemap haven't resulted in Google ever indexing more than half the pages.
Do you have internal links to those pages directly from other pages linked from your homepage? Like a rotating popular products section? We added this recently and we went from having 5% indexed after 6 months to 90% 6 weeks later.
Latency (time to first byte) in serving infrequently accessed images was a big problem with me and B2. The cost was low enough that I've stuck with it though and coded on the front end of the site to use placeholder images until the real media can be retrieved.
Is this the same as (or based upon) the old Lotus Notes?
Had that at a company where I worked in the 1990s. It was kind of new/novel and interesting then. We used it mainly as a knowledge base and for internal forums on various subjects. IIRC required an OS/2 server to run, which was the only OS/2 box in the company.
I had the same experience right out of university. After about 18 months the company transitioned to Office 365 and everything got better. It took forever to finally get rid of Notes because so many internal tools had been developed as notes apps and so they all had to be rebuilt.

Is there a correlation between high-unemployment countries and the availability/quality of off-shore tech labor?
Sure the local market may be in shambles, and the level of effort/risk to bring on new permanent employees may be out of whack. Assuming the talent and drive exists, shouldn't this drive the freelancing segment?
As someone trying to get into freelancing out of college, it really blows without a portfolio, and can take years to make one, and most of my freelancer friends left 9-5 (more like 6-10) jobs in the industry to do freelance, and used their years of experience and connections from the job as a jumping off point.
Does the average person find touchscreen on a laptop or desktop to be of any value?
Last week I walked into the Microsoft store looking to purchase a new laptop. I couldn't get over the Windows 8 interface and instead went to the Apple store across the hallway and purchased by first Mac laptop.
I don’t consider myself an average user but I do own an Acer Aspire with a touch screen and I love it. My wife and my granddaughter are both pretty average users and they both prefer the touch screen. I will never buy a laptop without touch screen capabilities until something better comes out.
I recently got a laptop with a decent multi-touch touchpad and was pleasantly surprised at how well the swipe and scroll gestures work with Windows 8. I get around quicker than using a real mouse and keyboard and it's fairly intuitive.
On my dual-monitor desktop though it's terrible and I end up cursing it out seemingly daily.
I like my Thinkpad Carbon X1 Touch. It's kind of like a Macbook Air with a 14-inch touch screen. When sitting down I tend to stay with the keyboard and trackpad. However, when on conference calls I find myself walking around with the notebook cradled in one arm and using the touch screen with the other hand. It's a very nice combination.
On the other hand I spend basically NO time in the start menu and have installed Classic Start, so it's really like an enhanced Windows 8 to me.
Just tested a bit and it looks like only domains with DNS hosted by Godaddy work with this.
