Eric, I'm interested in the eLearning space. Would you mind contacting me (or mind if I contact you) concerning what you guys are envisioning and what your motivation is for getting into the space?

I navigated to your smartlyedu site. Looks nice. What in particular is unique about your product though? There are a number of other sites that do the same things mentioned on your landing page ("create lessons, assignments & more").

Cool. What's your motivation for running this site?

Wow, best interface I've ever seen for a learning site. It's a great idea to be able to view the teacher in addition to their screen. Very impressive. A few things bothered me though: - I just listened to part of a lecture that began with

Brian, your UniversityTutor site is impressive. Do you have any financial incentives for running the site, or what's your motivation? Why do you do it? I've put a lot of thought into creating a similar site but for mentorships, in particu

I can't comment on the vending machines, but the panties are sold in S&M stores still and it's quite disturbing. (Disclaimer: I noticed them as I was following a friend through den den town.)

There's also a very prevalent and unfortunate number of perverts as well. It's no wonder women wouldn't want to show their identity. The fact that they have women-only cabins in the public transportation systems is telling enough.

It says it only lasts for about a year. What happens to it? Does it steadily degrade over time, or is it exponential towards the end?

I agree that Greene seemed overly naive having to put that much thought into why the woman disliked him. For the most part I think people are (or have the capability, or have been) very aware of it all, but as Greene says, just not acceptin

Encryption in the cloud is exactly what needs to happen. We give up our rights for convenience. This will continue getting worse until we accomplish something like that. I admire Wuala.com for refusing to create a cloud client because of

The forward motion idea is very interesting. I wonder how it plays out in a student's mind. A main issue with regular grading is that a lot of students end up caring more about the grade and their performance rather than what they are lea

I filled out an extensive recipe, clicked "Save", and nothing happened :(. I'm using Chrome 8.0.552.224. Cool design though and seems easy to use. I'm not yet sure if I like the fonts. The fonts remind me of my grandmother's cookbook, an

I don't think any of us can honestly answer that question. Why is it even relevant what state most of the people are in.

Yeah, good point. We already get hardware related calls and just deal with them. Getting more of those and actually being responsible for them, especially from around the country, I don't believe would be worth the cost if can be avoided.

What I'm specifically wondering though is if there are any special programs for situations like these. For example, it's common for corporations to have contracts with large computer manufacturers (like Dell) where they pay a flat sum and

Thanks for the explanation - I didn't catch on. Every author has a target audience. Although I find Ferriss' marketing strategies unethical, I think his judgement on the book itself to be a bit unfair.

Interesting, not long ago I was in search of such a site and thought about building my own. Eventually I found this site (basically the same as your site from what I can deduce), which I've found isn't great (mostly because of lack of part

Funny review overall through not very telling about the book (more about Ferriss himself). I've only read small snippets of the book (and don't intend to read much more), but it's pretty clear that the writer is outside of Ferriss' target

Pretty sad. I have enjoyed using Scoopon for the past few months and I'm disappointed by their behavior here. Though I'm not justifying their behavior with this statement, it's understandable that 300k isn't biting. I have no doubt that

Oh I see - Interesting. Well I still very much see it as a very valid criticism. I don't believe the situation should exist (or at least be as prevalent) where you can unfairly become discouraged to the point of no return. In most cases

It's sad how often comments about higher education are expressed in a light like this. Contact me if you have ideas on how to fix it.

Specifically what I was referring to was power being used with little foresight and little wisdom. When it is used without the foresight that it will someday disappear, that's when the rude awakening can happen. As you say, really it's no

It is a rude awakening for all of us, but I think the point is that one who heavily depends on looks has a much tougher time than someone not dependent on looks. Naturally not every beautiful woman has a heavy dependence on looks, but in g

Very good book/essay. Every math professor/teacher should read this in my opinion. I found this book was incredibly enlightening and refreshing after years of school math.

How does the iPhone app work? Do you need to have it attached to you all night? Another flaw I would think is the potential risk of radiation of having it on you all night.
