May I suggest going back to earlier time of HN? Because of the success, there are too many cooks in the kitchen. You have to always increase the number of moderators as the input from users increases. We are all here to read/discuss pretty

No question here. But if you submitted a special URL for your demo, you can check the IP if any coming from Palo Alto has visited your site.

Sounds like you already checked out. Life is short, go find something you're happy with. If it's a short period of time I can understand, but if it's a prolong issue, I'd have to say management is to blame. If a company is not looking out f

I don't think there is a limit to any network or business. Someone will always find a way to do things that the existing do not do, or don't do well. Sure, it could be incorporates into FB or twitter, but that will be a big shift in their b

The difference is that everyone around you contribute to the "events" that is happening around you, not just your followers. They have an algorithm to recognize from the pictures what is going on around you. That's the problem they claim t

I believe it's like Google when it first started out. We used to think the data Google collected was use for "big brother" business. I think Color.com is trying to be the Google of visual search. If they can figure out where you are and wh

Ouch! So much for showing my enthusiasm to Demo Day. I do appreciate the behind the scene look at Demo Day. The energy must be electrifying. For now all I can do is live vicariously through these post. Please keep them coming.

coding is a very small part of programming. your next level is to plan before you code. have a blue print of what you are going to do, put it down on paper. learn UML and create your diagrams. this forces you to think through what you are

Are you doing all of this on your own? Find some people who has the same interest and drive as you. It's much easier to go as a group than alone. Tell everyone about your idea, don't hide it. You proved that ideas are not unique. When y

Good ideas are dime a dozen. I don't doubt your idea. What I doubt is your readiness to run a startup. You have to be ready to sacrifice pretty much everything, and at times, your family too. So the question you have to ask yourself is,

Looks like a fun project! But can't you get a google number, associate the phone, and click 4 to record?

Do you think FB will let you run with this? How do you handle underage users? I think you'll have a lot of hurdles to overcome.

I think we have come a long ways since the days you need to write everything from scratch just to get a basic web site up and running to get your idea across. Have you check out Umbraco? It's a CMS but very easy to use and extend. You ca

I would reiterate the practice and practice mantra. But I think it's more of knowing where to find information. Being a professor and many years of experience, the information you need to look up to compete your task is just a thought awa

The hard part of any startup is execution. How will this person contribute to your execution? What is your plan to finish beta 1 and get users to sign up? Will this person get you there sooner? As with any project, you have to have a plan a

Not to downplay your situation. I assume you're still young. But life is full of choices. There's no way to know which is the best choice at the moment. All you can do is make a choice, give it everything you got, and you won't regret it. I

I believe the key is to keep it as simple as possible. I tried many different software over the years and what ended up working for me is a simple spreadsheet I created. I just add the task, enter the hours, done.
