The Biggest Lie On The Web

Terms and policy are often too long and we never read them, though it is very important to understand them.  Every time when we sign up for a service we blindly check that option with out even open them.  Terms of service; didn’t read has the remedy for this problem for the better understanding of  the terms. Its is a service where user label and rate the terms of service. The highlighted labels are easy to understand.

Canvasdropr has the best Terms of Service page I’ve seen around. To fix this problem it has come up with its own solution. They have humanized the terms.

Terms of Service: humanize

When you click this humanize button, it turns the TOS in a short and simple that can be easily understood.

humanized terms of service

It would be nice if more services implement idea like this for a user to better understand their terms of service and privacy policy.  Let me know in comments if you have come across the better terms of service page around the web.

New Year Resolution – 2013

Last year there was a lot of buzz around there on hacker news whether learn to code or not. while most people agreed that everyone should learn programming, Jeff Atwood requested not to learn to code.

Even Mike Bloomberg, Mayor of New York city owed to learn it.

I had already tried couple of times and gave up after certain attempts due to some other reasons. But, this time I seriously decided to do it. Even one of resolution in this year is to learn programming. I choose codeschool, treehouse and codecademy  to start to learn. But, All I want to do is stick to the plan unlike the previous attempts on various other things.  So planned to spend at least an hour per day to learn coding. Already I spend quite some time on learning html5 and css3. My next plan is to learn JavaScript as well and then move to either ruby or python.

I stated reading a lot of blogs and  articles on programming and web design and found some of the tutorials quite useful to learn easily.
