"Because if it wasn't for men like them, we would still be sitting in a cave poking a fire with a stick." Because of them, we now have large sticks which take us to space by poking the Earth with fire. :) I agree with your entire comment. T

It's nice, but it doesn't quite "mirror all the content I have" because it doesn't transfer comments. I claim ownership of all comments left by me, and by others, on my content. When a social network deletes a picture of mine, all the comme

What were the main features that you liked about it, but haven't found elsewhere? I liked being able to email files directly to the drop. I suggest that we make a short list of awesome features, and maybe someone will take up the cause.

Thanks for the correction. I had this nagging feeling that it might have been 2010, as I tend to lose track of time, and I could have sworn that drop.io's announcement said "Google". Anyway, we could use another drop.io, for people who don'

2011 was the year that Google gobbled up drop.io, and buried it deep in the room known as "Stuff We'll Never Use, And Neither Will Anyone Else". NOTE TO SELF: Startup Idea: Create a new drop.io, and combine it with some of the features of M

Ha! To go further, we need an AI website which combines ITFT with analysis of Flippa's "Just Sold" section, thereby generating ideas for startups which are likely to sell.

Thanks! At first glance, it seems useful. NOTE TO SELF: Come up with another startup idea! :(

Um, no. Your example, and the article, really stretch the meaning to the breaking point. An existing city can't be a startup. You may be an entrepreneur who then becomes a mayor, but it's not a startup unless you personally started the city

Thank you for the link, but my approach is neither "half-assed" nor "voodoo". I've used netcat, as described, for a small project, and it worked well. I'm about to do the same, for a big project, and I expect that it will again work well. S
