I agree. They had their story. At worst but acceptable they could have said that it was an Apple employee. They completely went over the line by naming said employee. The question they should have asked themselves first was: "Does naming th

I talked with one of the guys that works for Google App Engine, and he confirmed that BuddyPoke is one of the biggest (if not THE biggest) apps that run on it. That app serves millions of DAUs on various social networks and runs just fine.

As a general rule, unless you're willing to shell out dollars and buy facebook ads (which many developers do), you need to really optimize your virals, especially the feed. For more specific advice, what have you done for viral features? It

I'm not sure what trends you are looking at, but most consumer startups usually find it unnecessary to look at historical data points past X months. Things (features, users, etc.) change so much that averaging in those data points so far ba

No problem. I think you can get A LOT of data from grad students. They hold the keys to a lot of it, and aren't held to some contract to never release it.

Yeah, my first thought as well. Was hoping they had ran some crazy experiments or something like that.

This is every grad student researcher's dream... data finding and cleaning is such a major hassle. If only I had this a couple years ago... This is going to be great especially when the new Census comes out. Lots of data to be sifted throug

Assuming you have no car and are stuck wherever you go, why not just move to the South Bay, e.g. Mountain View. It meets all your requirements, plus there's no scenery to stare at to even get the slightest bit distracted. AND, there's entre

Have you used Quora? And/or seen who is using Quora? :) They have built what is simply the most addictive Q&A site. It remains to be seen if the usefulness persists once users start coming en masse. However, the potential is definitely
