This is what we're looking at with our new startup. We have a core featureset that will probably carry a subscription but other than scaling with more 'users' (in our case, employees), I'm not sure of other ways to increase the price withou

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I would love to see some sort of 'submitted' or 'updated' feedback indicator when editing your comment. I clicked edit, typed in my changes, and clicked submit. The page didn't reall

I dabble but I'm currently working on two different full-time projects, so no time for anything new :) Forgot to add - I think duggmirror had javascript in place to automatically parse the incoming referrer URL and route to the proper link

Perhaps you could build something that plugged into Scribd then? They are gearing up to be the defacto HTML5 'embed anything' vendor for the web. Building a comment and revision tracking system on top of it that is very easy to use could be

Could not agree more. Video encoding is still damn expensive. We're using encoding.com and although they have great customer support, we're still paying roughly $1/video to encode. 5% of these videos will account for 95% of the views. Why p

I'm worried about the track deletion as well. My guess is that doing anything that involves storing would lead to legal issues which have befallen nearly every other music startup. I would hope that eventually they could automatically point

I think the idea is great. I have seen people struggling with Basecamp for this in the past and I've been on both ends. The only downside that I see is that the number of designers out there doing freelance projects is relatively small, so

The piece I feel would be useful is a simple link that is auto-generated from every hacker news discussion. You could hit it by going to the site from a comment link, for example: http://blah.salon/ and it would determine based on your re

The funny thing is, some of the same things that the author points out, he doesn't do on his own site. I couldn't figure out where to start when I hit the homepage. Is it a news site? Is it a blog site? I finally hit 'critiques' from his bl

This is just a minor piece of feedback on the video and site itself but.. I didn't understand how i get my site to work with your 'visual designer.' My site is complex, has lots of CSS, etc. How can I just type in a few fonts into a wysiwyg

I've heard about your software form somewhere other than the websites you listed :) So at least you're doing something write on the marketing front! My experience is that the blogs either run very minimal 'skim' pieces based on a press rele
