Yeah I wouldn't call it social in the 'growth hacking' sense... but it's certainly social in that it comes up in conversation nearly as often as Facebook or Twitter (in my non-tech circles).

Seems like a cool tool for people who like to shop for visually appealing stuff, but I don't think it's really "fixed" any problems or truly modernized e-commerce. It's basically a clever front for a ton of affiliat

Great introductory post. I'll admit that this is the first time a post like this has convinced me to sign up for something -- I'm going to do an "office hour" with them. I'm just starting some small b2b sales for m

Since the developer and I are both here in Austin, I was planning on pitching them with our product price comparison API so that they can receive commissions on any products sold through it. Despite the ridiculous nature of some of the prod

Unfortunately, one can't build a rail line overnight. Especially when Austinites themselves voted down the larger-scale project that was on the ballot in 2000. Shot ourselves in both feet. With this city's growth, it will be ver

My benchmarks (and real world usage with a database I rough up pretty badly) say you're wrong. So do most blog posts reviewing DO out there as well. Give it another shot, or document exactly what you did and I'm sure someone will

Austinite here. This is a terribly sad, sad day out here. Your comment, while partially true, is not really appreciated. That said, you can't really be "surprised" by the enormous amounts of DUIs around here (even by our ele

Yeah. For me it was price and performance, both of which DigitalOcean wins. I couldn't possibly care less about an admin panel. I'm a Linux guy. I want cheap speed and reliability. With DO, you get all of them. Sorry Linode, but y

Came here to say the exact same thing. I am working on something that I personally consider very sexy, but most hardcore techies do not. It brings about opportunity, even if what I'm doing is extremely boring to most others. I don&#x

Oh excellent, that's pretty much what I wanted to know. Labdoor's exactly in our field and I've been meaning to reach out to them anyway. Thanks.

First time I've heard of them to be honest. What are their boundaries? Do they stay within "professional health" areas, or do they have expertise in nutritional fields as well?
