Great writeup on your showing-not-telling approach to designing a landing page. But after reading it, here is what I really want to know: what does "a few tweets" mean? I know many people (myself included) who have tried to "

Hey all, I've been working on a site for connecting people over content related to living a good life; pretty much a Hacker News for life. Here is the initial prototype. For now, there are only two rules: (1) anything related to living

"@infogaufire, how did you manage accounting and marketing? Did you delegate that too?" I would love to hear about this too. One of my other biggest challenges, as a tech guy, has been figuring out how to go about all the non-tech stuff.

Yeah, the biggest thing I’ve been trying to do is minimize the prototyping, and try to fail fast. It is difficult to tell the difference between failing, and not trying hard enough.I feel it is a gut decision that should get better with tim

As a first-time entrepreneur, I do have a blogging dilemma but it isn't related to confidentiality. My problem is that I both don't have time, and don't know what I am doing. Everyday is a struggle to figure things out as fast as possible.

It may not be for you, but there is nothing pretentious about it. There are many ways to motivate yourself. Having physical reminders to keep important stuff at the top of your mind is just one way of doing it. It works for some.. it may ev

The difference in email strategies is very interesting. However, this article assumes that the outcome of the election proves that one strategy is better than another. Is this true? If true, how much better is it? People vote for candidates
