More on that first-mover advantage... The author suggests that it is not a factor in this arena as Tumblr will inevitably plateau due to a lack of new user signups. I disagree. So long as there are new users signing up for these services th

Dumping your smartphone is a major step in the right direction. No one ever takes the time to be truly present and witness the world around them with a smartphone in their hand. Immediately we default to checking Twitter, Facebook, texting,

Yes, but without a general knowledge of HTML/CSS you won't know what is possible and what isn't possible in your design. So yes, you may design some amazing layout in photoshop with crazy features and what not, but it simply may not be doab

I'm in a fraternity and can give you some coached advice. Every year we like to pull in that stereotypical, socially-awkward kid. Why? Because their funny. Your best bet is to be honest about your social ineptitude and play it off in a come

It pains me to see a Mashable story on the front page. This post (like most Mashable pieces) is of little use to the HN community. Let's keep this sort of "lowest common denominator" stuff on Reddit and Digg.

As an avid skydiver (67 jumps) and a lover of fine documentaries, I must suggest that you watch "Fearless - The Jeb Corliss Story." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzQ7pdTfp2g&feature=PlayL... And an article worth checking out in Outsi

This article, similar to "The Web Is Dead", is about nothing more than link baiting. Wired has been going down hill as of late.

I would say that one of the biggest challenges is going to be maintaining a healthy body in a zero gravity environment. Not sure how long the longest stay at the Space Station has been, but does it even come close to 500 days?

I was set to do a financial economics certificate program as part of Kellogg. Like I said, never went through with it. Not sure what business undergrad you're referring to. The closest thing we have is BIP (business institutions program), w

Very true. Unlike the 99% of other economics majors on this campus, I thoroughly enjoy the subject. I know what I want to do after I graduate. I'm moving out to San Francisco. Do you have similar plans? I'll be back on campus next Saturday

My thoughts exactly. A degree is nothing more than a signal of your intelligence. How else to show potential employers that you are in fact smart? If money is the real issue, then transfer to a State school. Enjoy your time in college, it o

I was in 7th grade at the time in the middle of an English test on Greek Mythology. My professor, Prof. Sigñore turned on the TV to watch the news coverage, however, he forced us to finish our test. I vividly remember a bunch of my friends'

I don't mind answering a couple of questions so long as they are keeping our country safer. Some people (namely this guy) need to lighten up a bit. Did answer a simple question or two really effect his ego THAT much? Learn how to make peopl

In my opinion, an "Entrepreneurship" major is a complete waste of time. Entrepreneurship is something that is learned through trial and error. Right now I am on an Economics/Legal Studies track. Originally I was doing Finance, thinking that

Awesome, but the "Watch Next Video" button doesn't seem to be working for me (starting in 1860). All in all, the video does make me realize just how far we've come in 100 years. I'm so happy to be during the turn of this century versus the

Look at it from a start-up perspective, either you bootstrap with $0 invested or you raise money (more than $10k). The same project can be had with no money or a lot of money. Once you burn through $10k you will only want more money.

This is something that we've needed at Northwestern for a long while now. NU's startup presence is abismal. If you want to venture into consulting, banking or journalism they've got you covered, but the Valley? You are on your own.

You sir are a god amongst men. Wasn't aware that so many HN readers were into house, techno, trance, etc. Anyone ever been to Ultra Music Festival? Most amazing time of my life.

I would say that the majority of "users" (like myself) will not log into the service ever again. It doesn't help having zero friends :/ And I will blame having no frinds on the lack of Fbook or Twitter connect

It comes down to money. Yes Facebook is gracious enough to allow third-parties access to its data via API, but when the third-party is as large as Apple it is going to want some money from them to cover the costs of serving up all that data
