There is no killer app for OpenID, it's a tech looking for an audience, and the audience doesn't care. The browser is your OpenID, you tell it to save your logins and it keeps them all for you safely on your computer, not up on some server

I would hardly call Valleywag a lower-end publication. I mean they have at least 3 stories about bay area escort services on the front page today. ;)

why did the word secret get removed from the title of my post? I just re-worded the title of the linked article. Is Hacker News censoring stories now, for no good reason?

Very nice. I had this same exact idea a couple months back with the focus of tying it into a thin client computer. You buy the hardware and you instantly have access to all of these browser based applications that are hosted and built throu

The Arc tutorial is awesome! All the examples really hammer the dialect in to you. About half way through you start to realize, 'wait a minute... I can actually read this!'. Thanks PG

I'm working for a startup wireless carrier in Oklahoma. We're working to bring wireless phone service and wireless broadband to rural areas in connection with another major carrier.

So if your software was web based you could cut out the download step, the install step, the finding the website step, and probably the where to purchase step. Quit building installable software.

I have a couple sites on Slicehost and I love it. The only thing I miss from shared hosting sites is the easy to use management console for setting up email and such. Other than that Slicehost is the way to go.

It cracks me up how Newsy readers keep trying to "keep x story out of hacker news". The whole point is that PEOPLE VOTE ON THE STORIES! If a story is at the top of the pile then enough people care about it to put it there. Stop whining and

This is a really great essay. I go back and read it every year or so. There is actually an 'updated' version, not done by Stephenson but with his blessing. It takes into account the rise of OS X (which Stephenson loves) and updates some of

I suppose that could be true, but I really think it depends on what it is you're doing. If you're going to be doing something inventive in the backend, some sort of api, or db structure, then yeah I understand that. But I still think there

If you're a company that's going to "drive a new approach to social networking and solve key problems holding back the advancement of the semantic web" shouldn't you make your OWN website. That is the problem I have always had with website

I would bet that's only because you haven't looked hard enough. If you know Java already that's what you feel like you'll need to use, but honestly it's probably not true. Good Luck, I hope Java works out for you.

It really is true. Nobody wants to program in Java anymore, if you do it's just because you don't know any better. However, just like Cobol, there is going to be money available for a long time for anyone that keeps their Java skills sharp.

That's true, but look at Mixx ( http://www.mixx.com ). It's not actually very functional. They break up the front page into two small lists (news and videos) that all run together. There is also a lot of other things going on all over the p

This was the basis for my social news site Klipboardz ( http://www.klipboardz.com ). I built this feature 2 years ago, unfortunately PR is what makes one startup more successful than another, it's not really about features.
