Perhaps a bit naive of me, but can't ANY email sender just include html/css of this type in their spam or regular mail to me? Can't any email sender spoof the sender identity in various ways, e.g., from name, signature, and s

What I liked most about this article is the first-person account of what it feels like to have startup ideas. It's so exciting! Your friends love them! It's super fun! I guess ideas for movies and creative stuff are similar. And for those w

Yeah totally - I do that too. Know lots of people who do But what do you email ABOUT that's what I meant... Like emails from Amazon are plainly not "doing email". That stuff should go somewhere else

What's your interest in email by the way? You seem to have some sophisticated views (or at least background) on the topic!

The downside is you get embarrassed when someone makes a map. That's the NRA fear. (Edit: that's WHAT the NRA fear) Similar downside for...driver's licenses, passports, political contributions, subscriptions to magazines or any other databa

Not safe. They just don't have a registered gun. They have knives, security systems, gates, locks, police driving by. And the ones with guns may well be easy to invade. It happened to the mom of that killer last week. It's not a good argume

The main argument, and a silly one, summarizing the outrage about the map is "now criminals can find guns to steal". This is very silly -- there are plenty of maps to use to find banks, gun stores, gasoline, fertilizer...or rich people's ho

I'm the founder of Peek, where we made a mobile device/app for doing email better. The main comparison at the time was Blackberry and eventually Android. We were a low cost smartphone centered on email and stuff. So with that backdrop, some

Note to hardware hackers: IFTTT almost certainly started with some musings about "wouldn't it be cool if I could make my household X trigger web API Y" and for many entrepreneurs would have led to a startup about smart gadgets. There have b

Hard to disagree with this statement: most people read all their email And: most people miss most of their feeds/blog posts Which is the incentive for true spam, but if you have something useful to tell your associates and customers, you ar
