This could get me to switch to Seesmic, and maybe even learn to program, too. I see twitter client after twitter client that reproduces the majority of the functionality of its competitors, but each with one unique difference. It'd be gre

I'd like to amicably encourage you to proofread what you write. Grammar aside, both this post and your previous post were filled with spelling errors. If you don't take the time to write clearly, how can you expect others to take the time t

I thought his question about why they weren't using their technology to make money from buying underpriced tickets themselves was much more damaging. The SeatGeek founder's answer to the question you're referring was actually much more usef

If you look below the main video, you'll see thumbnails for several others... these are each segments from earlier in the day. Paul Graham's panel just started at around 6:00 PM EST, though. (15 minutes ago, as I post this.)
