Periods and commas always go inside quotation marks, even inside single quotes.
Examples: The sign changed from "Walk," to "Don't Walk," to "Walk" again within 30 seconds.
She said, "Hurry up."
She said, "He said, 'Hurry up.'"

No, they go outside. I've always put them outside, and was taught that way.

Gmail is ripping off twitter, with BUZZ. How unique.

I don't think they're ripping off Twitter. It is intended, I think, to end up being a more consolidated place. I already like that things like people's Flickr's account show up in Buzz. They have a lot of work to do, but I have Gmail up all day so it's a logical place for all this shit to be.
