Slightly off topic but what is better about Zendesk? I've been using Freshdesk for a few years and originally chose it because the price was so much less. To me the major benefits of Zendesk appear to be a better mobile experience and

I think regardless of what the majority is saying, most people want an exit of their business eventually. Even if only for the fact that being able to work on something new is fun and challenging.

There is something very important going on here. The reality is most search results are gamed & Google knows it. Everyone should be afraid of this happening to them. Clearly what RapGenius did was wrong, very stupid and extremely short

Freedom to me in the context of earning great amounts of money is more related to an inner freedom. It's the freedom that allows your inner voice to say "ok we did this". And it's the one that allows you to feel like you

That is one of the worst responses from a customer service agent I've ever seen.

I've never researched the exact technology behind military drones but my understanding is they are capable of everything you mentioned being not yet possible. I just can't wrap my head around how these are possible in areas like M

If you don't mind having to get an inner ear mold made and spending ~$700 the Sensaphonics 2X-S are awesome. Since they are molded to your inner ear they block out near 100% of sound without using audio noise reduction. The sound quali

So as a disclaimer I currently live in New York so I am not saying this as a resident. From my times visiting Nashville it seemed like a really nice city. I put some light research into rental options earlier this year and the prices seemed

The "slick and simple user interface" stops with their marketing site in my opinion. I used it for about 3-4 months but had to switch to Quickbooks Online and I can't stand Intuit. I actually find QBO to be better designed &a

Totally agree - just the size of some of the pieces alone and the fact they are on canvas. $60 seems like a great price.

The idea sounds interesting but it would likely turn into one of the greatest drains of my productivity of all time.

I have to stay that the daily alerts promoting StartHQ on Twitter are pretty annoying.

I don't disagree with that. My main point is that the world Googles and if you're anticipating growing a business through search you're probably better off using it than not.

I wish I could get into DuckDuckGo but I feel like in a time period where it's so important to optimize for Google using anything but Google puts you at a disadvantage.

Try audiobooks. I use Audible.com, only $14 a month for 1 audiobook per month. The cost to buy the audiobook is almost always greater than $14 and unused credits roll over. I find audiobooks a great option for walking, the car, gym, subway,

Agreed. I personally find very short high quality video with no sound to be more pleasurable to view than short videos with sound. The first few times I used Vine I had my phone on vibrate and thought it was so smart of them to not include

It is an interesting thought though. With the (assumed) improvements in life saving medical procedures coupled with the fact that due to cell phones you're likely going to get help faster than you would have 20 years ago more murders a

It's certainly not the only reason but I 100% agree with you and have been preaching this for a while and no one takes it seriously. There is just a lot more to entertain everyone than there was 20 years ago. The internet & technol

I think that design looks amazing. I like the concept of MagSafe connector but the world would shit a brick if they changed it again that quickly.

Not all direct impact is physical. By design the effect of terrorism is much greater than its direct impact on a single personal physical well being. Comparing it to bathtub deaths is just not apples to apples.
