After their new Heart of the Swarm announcements the other day, I'd say the best developer there is.

Indeed. They are fixing literally everything the community complains about. Unranked ladder will be huge, I am so excited for it.

Mine were a month ago spread out throughout April. I took all math and physics classes (because I'm an idiot and thought I could handle it) and ended up way overwhelmed and didn't do well on finals. Almost all my marks went down at least 5%. I'm switching majors to computer science next year (like over half of math majors at my university do because you start doing upper year math and realize it is not what you expected) so my first half of the year should be easy because I'm taking first year comp-sci classes, which I already know most of the content of. Then for the second half I'm taking a mix of first and second year comp-sci classes so it might be a lot of work but it shouldn't be too hard and I really enjoy that stuff so it should be a lot of fun.

I had this exact experience when trying to watch TANG videos on Chrome on Mac 10.6.8. No matter what I clicked, it always played the default video from when you first open the page (for TANG it was Cloak & Dagger, which played no matter what was selected). 
 
I tested on Opera and this didn't happen.

    The general rule of Quick Looks is the worse/crazier the game, the better the Quick Look. Here's some of my favourites.

It  play fine but embedding the video player into the site seems to be borked. I embedded a GB video here and it just permanently says loading once posted. I checked across 4 different browsers on Mac and it still just says "loading" on all of them.

I use black- though Dave mentioned they may be working on a blue site, and you all know how I love blue sites...

I hope they do a blue/grey version. It is so easy on the eyes. It's the happy medium it seems.

Not sure about 10 through 2, but I simply can't think of a reason why your number one song shouldn't be there. It's such an astonishingly good song.  If you aren't smiling by the end of that song then you are not human.

I would encourage writing on the rather suggestive looking last boss in Borderlands, you know, the one that can be beaten by hiding behind a rock and holding down the shoot button. That thing was the pinnacle of awful boss design, really hurt that game since the rest was so good.

I think I'm finally starting to understand just why people hate GFWL.  I never used to have issues but I am now. Your issue sounds super annoying and a lot like the many I've been dealing with. This evening I was setting up Dirt 2, which also has GFWL, and apparently it updates through that system instead of through Steam like it logically would. The update downloads were super slow (at the same time I was getting 40 megabit speeds from Steam so it wasn't on my end), and it forced me to relogin 3 separate times even though I had it set to remember my email and password, and it forced me to put in the key even though that key is already registered to my GFWL account (I was reinstalling after formatting my desktop). And then it kept loading my "settings" from my profile (which were not my settings, and for some reason kept forcing it into 1024x768 windowed mode) so I had to force it to fullscreen even though in the settings it was set to supposedly be fullscreen already. It took almost 20 minutes in total to get the game working. In the end I was so annoyed I ended up just quitting that game and playing Diablo II.
