Official Google Mobile Blog: Google Latitude, now with Location History & Alerts
People also want to know when their friends were nearby, but it's not always convenient to keep checking Latitude to see if a friend has recently shown up near you. After working on this for a while, we realized it wasn't as straightforward as sending a notification every time Latitude friends were near each other. Imagine that you're Latitude friends with your roommate or co-workers. It would get pretty annoying to get a text message every single time you walked in the door at home or pulled into work. To avoid this, we decided to make Location Alerts smarter by requiring that you also enable Location History. Using your past location history, Location Alerts can recognize your regular, routine locations and not create alerts when you're at places like home or work. Alerts will only be sent to you and any nearby friends when you're either at an unusual place or at a routine place at an unusual time. Keep in mind that it may take up to a week to learn your "unusual" locations and start sending alerts.
Against Transparency
Likewise with transparency. There is no questioning the good that transparency creates in a wide range of contexts, government especially. But we should also recognize that the collateral consequence of that good need not itself be good. And if that collateral bad is busy certifying to the American public what it thinks it already knows, we should think carefully about how to avoid it.

Adblock Plus and (a little) more: Managing locales - now the generic way
very generic script. The downside is of course that it can only have a subset of the functionality — namely verifying that the files are valid UTF-8, don’t have a BOM and that the syntax is correct. It also happens to recognize a larger part of the DTD syntax than the Adblock Plus script because it doesn’t need to extract the data out of the DTD files.
