Anyone knows what is the first connector on the left ?

This is great ! BUT, as with other 95% of the tools out there. I cannot use it. Because it does not support localization. Can you allow for changing the text in buttons & captions ? (Moving the box RTL will be great too)

What I meant is that M&A is not the only way for an "exit". The article implies that its the only way for VCs to cash out. But the IPO market holds a lot more money and opportunities.

There is anothing thing common to all those companies. They are all PUBLIC. Its true that the IPO market has been quiet lately, but it is waking up. And there is much more spending money there than in these 10 companie's accounts.

Maybe its some other Alien using the star as a ride to drop for a visit. I for one, plan to dress up. Just in case.

You got a great point there. Its the crap we do unaware, that hurts us most. No one really expected this open-social-revolution nor prepared us for the dangers/effects. Glad to hear teachers are aware

Choose one thing each week that you know wastes your time.. and quit cold turkey. Delete your relevant accounts, remove from bookmarks, clear browser history and just stop using it. I find it gives me immediate results, got rid of lots of n

Should read: "Are you capable of being a POLITICIAN to get ahead?" Advancing the ladder not due to your abilities to be better than others but rather by your ability to _appear_ to be so.

What I would love to see is correspondence between points/page-rank and actual impressions the site gets. I am assuming points have a better correlation with impressions (since readers are the ones who vote) than rank. Anyone has any idea h

I think you missed the point. What the author was trying to show was how different regions adapt new technology. In my "world" almost no one uses Twitter, 4square or any other new technology/tools. This means starting a new trend and gettin

If they allowed me to embed their system into my site to provide "smarter" message boards, I would gladly pay them a set-fee/month. They don't need to care how I monetize my sites. [Sadly now they do not allow this in any way]

"flywheel generator mounted in its passenger seat that can spin at up to 40,000 rpm" Now that is what I call exciting: sitting next to a few kg of metal spinning at 40K rpm.

+1 on text bellow buttons. Very annoying to have to hover them all too see what can be done. Generally, there is too much hovering required. Reminds me old quests, where you had to hover over everything to see if some element accepts action

If history of tech tough us anything, is that both the price will go down and the res will go up with time. Given the amount of prints done at our offices (and costs of replacing the toner) this can become cost effective very fast. I wonder

We posted this mainly here. But, if someone likes technology and is interested in startups, he is welcome. (And will surely become a HN reader afterward !)

The two short lectures we have, are going to be in Hebrew. But during the StartupWeekend event a few weeks ago, most of the pitches and demos were done in English.

I can't believe there is no web2.0 app doing this. Just can't seem to be able to find one.
