* Do your best to summarize the implications of the US downgrade on Friday. * Maybe put together a quick video for easy sharing. * Use the free $80 AdWords gift certificate to run a 5-day , high-CPC campaign (strike while the iron is hot).

One thing that does work is our export page, and if you're feeling nervous about your data I encourage you to use it. We have fresh backups (from one day ago) safely stored on S3, but in these matters you can't be too careful. +1 Maciej.

perhaps a Google Instant Preview style extension where you hover over the default view link and a screenshot is displayed on the side? That would be a great browser extension!

I agree. This is more of a proof-of-concept / demo of the url2png api. If the post looks interesting to you, just hover over the image thumbnail to view the title.

I've been beta testing url2png.com for a few months now and it's finally been released and opened to public sign ups. The service isn't free, but having the option to avoid the many other screenshot services out there is worth the cost, imo

Yes, I agree that it's valuable and will eventually lead to revenue. Perhaps the "mystery" stops right there. Sometimes it can be difficult to clearly communicate in short forum-style posts. I don't always qualify my posts, but in this case

I love Street View and cannot believe I'm living in a time and place in history that makes it possible to see such a massive amount of culture and everyday life from virtually anywhere in the world. One question I've had since Street View w

Well, for me, it's always about being aware. So, I may not eat 100% slow-carbs all the time (it just isn't possible given my particular situation). But, when possible I avoid white foods (dairy, bread, pasta) and eat fiber rich foods (legum

Awesome! Sounds like you had a very systematic approach to figuring out what works and what didn't. I would be interested in reading more about what you tried and the results you got. Did you capture any interesting data with your experimen

This is good advice, but what about non-fitness goals? I think it's helpful to have a systematic approach to all aspects of your life, but figuring out where to start can be difficult. For instance, if you feel sleepy or sluggish and it's a

Sorry, you come off as just another "hater" looking to pick apart a basically good book on hacking ones body. It's not just about weight loss or gaining strength. There are chapters on sex, sleep, free diving, etc. that would probably inter

I really like the "I want a T-shirt!" button. I wonder if those button-clicks are being tracked or only emailed requests. I think tracking both would be smart.
