I don't have a smart phone. What is it about iphones/androids that make it difficult to find and save interesting apps on the web? Is it that much more difficult than finding sites on a PC?

>One reviewer of the app on iTunes coolly dismissed Planetary as "visually appealing but useless." ...With all due respect, that critic is missing the point. No, he didn't miss the point. He hit the nail on the head. The purpose of da

Regarding your last option, I respectfully disagree that it's the best option. It is likely that an 'existing startup company' has already found it's co-founders, and a new hire will probably be coming on as an employee. I think the risk/r

You can use Yodlee, although it is not cheap. I believe Wesable also opensourced their code to get bank info from customers.

Some of these positions can be personally identified. I just picked Physic Ventures to start and with some not too hard logic was able to figure who's salary was listed on the site.

Prediction: Someone will eventually get assaulted or worse at a host's place. The media will then take that incident and run headlines like "The AirBNB rapist", "AirBNB, Is it SAFE??". Local mayors urged by hotel campaign donors will laun

I think it's fine. For now. It is likely that your early adopter will have heard of AirBNB, and that phrase "AirBNB for food" carries high information density about what your site does. But you probably don't want to the the brand of your

I have several self-recognized cognitive biases that make me a terrible poker player. I hate to give up on something once I start. If I start reading a terrible book, it burns me because I feel obligated to finish. This also means its pre

I have a personal philosophy of not doing business with any organization or person unless I understand how they will make money. I take this exercise particularly seriously when at first glance it seems I'll be coming out way ahead. This

I highly recommend everyone watch this documentary. It was produced by Jamie Johnson (as in the heir to Johnson & Johnson) who interviewed his friends for their candid feedback on what it's like to be wealthy. None of them knew this w

Was your offer unsolicited? I would guess that an unsolicited offer for a poorly performing site would lead to some good deals on domains. From one of you prev posts, it sounds like fab.com was a social network that didn't take off.

Well you can't start a biotech in your garage. I was more passionate about creating SOMETHING than I was tied to any particular field. With that, I cracked open a few books and started coding.

Is your idea medical related? I was in that world on the sales/strategy end for a few years. I'm applying today at YC for a non-medical related startup, that I programmed. If you want to bounce around some thoughts, shoot me an email.

It's been a real pleasure to watch your work with Startup Foundry. I remember when you first came and floated the idea, and the top comments were that g0atbutt was a ridiculous name for a tech reporter. You ignored all that talk AND GOT I

I'd be willing to bet there's ill gotten gains involved somewhere on that guy. He's only 35 and was previously involved in Ukranian oil & gas. There's a lot of shadowy players in that market.

Just throwing a crazy idea out in the wild here: Have a service where a professional negotiates salary on your behalf. 1. Is there interest in this? 2. Would this be feasible? Employers sure as hell wouldn't like it, but I wonder if they
