Yes! I have many customers who run events with anything from 50-1000 people and nobody wants to be bothered with scanning, even with the obvious advantages it provides.

I'm honestly not sure about this concept, but props to Ticketleap for innovating and trying something new. Good work!

Well, that might be genuinely interesting and useful :)

SaaS as a business model, not as a technology. Webmail was a feature, not the entire business, for the most part. I'm sure you can find examples of SaaS before 37signals, but that doesn't detract from the fact that they were among

Wow, as one of the "pioneers" of the SaaS model, and a highly successful bootstrapped startup for 10+ years, I would have to say... yes, I would imagine you are one of very few people in this community who would have never heard o

I think this post, and indeed the OP, has flown over some of our American friends heads ;)

The study was not peer reviewed, and is nothing more than an interesting experiment, not deserving of the factual assertion of the headline.

That's fascinating, thanks! I also didn't know about Pitcairn Island and them being descendants of the HMS Bounty mutineers.

Since when is a 375 person class massive? I'm all for what Udacity, Coursera, and others are trying to do, but there have been proper online universities such as the Open University doing this for years with hundreds of types of degree

I used to use it but had to disable it because I find myself regularly working at 2 or 3am and being tired would be a terrible idea...

What? Perl is about 10 years older than PHP. In fact it would make more sense reversed. PHP: Perl is a kludge. Because that's what PHP mostly replaced - Perl.

Do you not find massive pushback from employers who require that CVs be in Word format so that they can be uploaded to whatever applicant tracking system is being used? And I think it's naive to think that startups aren't using

In what way is it insulting? Also... the entire game is tongue-in-cheek.

Yes, it's quite a fun game, similar to Game Dev Tycoon if you've played that. There were crashes in the first release but it seems to be fixed now.

I looked through the site and watched the video - I think you don't handle the logistics of it? One of the things that most appealed about Sold is that they send you a box, you put the thing in it, and that's it. For me, that&#x27

Also unfamiliar with it till now, just watched the video and wow... it looked like an awesome service. I wouldn't have been able to use it, as I'm in Ireland, but if selling was that simple it could really disrupt the likes of Cra

As a developer, that's awesome. As a citizen.. I would guess not so much.

I love RescueTime - for myself. I'd absolutely recommend that my employees use it, but with the caveat that I would never ask for the results. They can use it personally to improve their productivity, but it's just not right for s

Funnily enough, I came to the exact same conclusion last week while visiting London, from Dublin. €30 return flights and it's faster than Barcelona, 1hr flights (and you can show up 45 mins before flight leaves for IE->UK). Even usi

I've been using it for about a year and it works well, haven't gotten any false positives yet. It can do keyword checking as well as standard ping + port connect. That's about all it does, which is fine by me. It's free

I'm Irish. They provide 2000 jobs here in Dublin, and that has the potential to double even in the next few years. The fact of them being here is a direct reason Facebook, LinkedIn, and a load of other companies are also here. They&#x2

Bit of a stretch, no? I agree that any removal of privacy features isn't good, but what Zuckerberg did was stop someone else cashing in on his name/reputation. Not entirely about privacy.
