Not spammy. I want more tools like this. I use domaintumbler all the time. I do wish the tools would support different languages and more extensions. I live in Europe.

I stopped paying for a 6 letter .cn domain, and the Chinese got in touch with me, they snatched it up, thinking I was going to pay them some money for it. I once asked how much a .com domain name was worth. They replied by email, it was abo

Oh, they're excluding mobile ? That explains it. I was wondering how that was possible considering the fact that the iPad is 1024 x 768.

They had it coming, considering how the Greens (in the EU) were flip flopping on ACTA. Do you happen to know what German parties ALDE http://www.alde.eu/ is linked to ? They are pro ACTA, so it would be interesting to know whether they

Two questions: 1. When a country limits capital flow, it sometimes becomes impossible to move your money out of that country. Doesn't Bitcoin solve that problem? 2. I have very little knowledge about how it actually works and how secur

You can say that about the gold market as well, no ? It takes you back a hundred years and you can corner and squeeze it.

AR looks interesting, but for this to work internationally, it needs to support other languages.

I worked for a company where they had a student (internship) set up the LAN, among other things. He got the job done, they liked to boss him around and pretty much everyone agreed the guy was lazy and there was no way they were going to hir

OP says he never has any ideas of his own. And the title suggests he doesn't even have ideas that are worth shit. I don't want any more ideas, I got plenty, good ones and lots of bad ones as well. Ideas are a dime a dozen. Sometimes I re

Can we give him some feedback and advice on Upverter so he can take it to the next level? I think it's an interesting site. But I'm not sure a subscription model is the way to go. I do know R&D teams are gonna have a hard time gett

I didn't mean to imply that Apple competes with Corning. My question is how will Apple deal with the disruptive potential of cross-platform ? It's hard to believe Apple will not be challenged by it. And somewhat related. What's the input la

Dr Christensen wrote in his book that you have to compete with your own products before someone else comes along and disrupts your market & profits. It's a no brainer but it's a difficult decision for most companies because most incent

I'm looking at Corning's Day of Glass video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Cf7IL_eZ38 and once again, I'm being reminded of Apple's biggest weakness. There's no cross-platform functionality and that's going to be Apple's biggest problem

I've been thinking about systems like this because I met way too many pretentious docs and on top of that lots of docs misdiagnose and the older they get, the less motivated they are to stay up to date on new drugs. One word of advice thoug

It's always going to be a pyramid. But you have to value and trust those whose daily decisions have the biggest impact on the customer's experience. Whether that's in product design, tech support, customer service or sales. It's de-motiv

We should probably stop calling them pirates and instead call them freedom fighters. They fought for free radio, they fought for freedom. The Arab Spring, Wikileaks, Occupy and Anonymous, they're all fighting for democracy and freedom. The

I'm no expert in it but it sure reminds me of the offshore radio stations. Offshore pirate radio stations were wildly popular in the 60s, they were considered illegal because they didn't have permission to broadcast the content. They could

Countries & institutions that weren't mentioned : Greece 22% of the people in Greece work for the government. That's unsustainable. They paid very little taxes and the government's debt ballooned to a point where the market said enough.
