They had a post make the front page of HN just a few days ago. Now, every URL pointing to them just says that they've been acquired by "Trustfinity", which Google knows nothing about, and I can't find cached versions of anything anywhere. Apparently they've got a robots.txt file that prohibits it. Anyone know anything?

A few moments ago, I was prompted to upgrade to Adobe Flash Player 11.6.602.168. I accepted, and IE 8 was launched to this URL: https://get3.adobe.com/flashplayer/update/activex/ . The web page makes no mention of installing Google Toolbar, although it does ask if I want to install Chrome. Adobe's download manager then downloaded and installed both Flash Player and Google Toolbar (I already had Chrome installed). Has anyone else noticed this? BTW, here's the web page as presented to me: https://www.dropbox.com/s/01vgfb05ypap2dg/AdobeFlashUpgradePage.PNG

I want to add a developer API to a project. You know, where someone provides their userid and/or email address and gets a developer key and a secret. My choice are to roll my own, steal one from an existing project, or find an add-in/module. Any of Perl/Python/PHP will do. Unfortunately, I can't think of any search terms that don't return a crap-load of other people's developer key request pages.
