   A much better idea would be to be able to define an html to surround user code (allthough one has to make sure that the usercode will never contain that special tag) and disallow all javascript or other malicious actions in it.

   There is technoport/luxinnovation/123-gonetworking in Luxembourg, but it's not focused on web startups (they accept startups from all fields). You won't get any money, but they will help you with your business plan, give you access to coach

   If you were working on the site for a few months, and you would ask another person to come in, wouldn't you want to have the final word in important matters? I think it's very reasonable to ask for that, or you pay up for the time he invest

   I wouldn't recommend doing it on your own, or at least use a well known smtp server for relay (where you have access to). Especially hotmail can be very tricky. If a few users complain about your mails, they will put you on a ban list and y

   If they don't pay you, tell them that they are not allowed to use your software. If they do howeer use your software, they are using pirated software which will be very very expensive for them (If you call in the police and they confiscate

   Cuil is much more worth than powerset is. PowerSet was searching through about 5 million pages? No need for a huge cluster farm! No offense meant, but I bet if Powerset wouldn't have been sold, you probably would be workless as they would h

   I agree with you on this one. If dull work must be done, you have to do it as fast as possible and get over it. Otherwise you keep thinking on it while doing normal stuff, so you never get to rest and you are probably wasting time with othe

    Thanks for clarifying. I actually heard that you would get double taxed, but this was probably wrong.

    You can buy chewing gum at drug stores if you show your passport. But remember to flush the public toilet when you are done, or you will be fined 500€.

    If you are good and bring in capital, I think probably every country will give you a working permit. Just remember that as US citizen you will always to have to pay taxes in the US even if you work outside the US. (in addition to the taxes

    Most of the applications are so clustered with ads, so that everbody is probably ignoring them. I do however sometimes find the facebook ads (the main site) highligy targeted (I even clicked twice on those). I bet they charge more than a fe

    I would go for the earning potential. I see myself doing consistenly more interesting/complicated stuff, but I think I would be much better off if I would do more lucrative boring stuff!

    If your account is an anonymous account, can you disclose how much cash you were offered? Or an approximate amount. It makes it easier to evaluate the entire offer.

    Their projects only succeed if they use illegal content to push them. This was also the reason youtube succeeded and right now they are only selling ads for about 4% of all content, because for the rest of the content, the original post doe

    In my opinion they were simply running out of money and have no business model whatsoever. 100 Million is still a lot of money for something that only searches wikipedia. With 100 million $ you could hire some of the brigthest engineers aro

    Study abroad, for example here at the ETH Zurich. If you are good, there won't be a problem to do your master at one of the top US universities, or at least do an excahnge year there or a master thesis. But you must understand german ;)
