I'd hate to be the reader doing 5 different takes for the entire book, from whispering to shouting my lungs out for hours!

There was a similar story in the WSJ but I'm afraid its a bit early to say the world's most powerful economy has government debt that's about to take a nose-dive... I mean seriously, the USA has about 23% of the world's accumulated GDP. Get

I tend to think that Google Chrome wasn't so much meant to be a super-secure browser for today but a pseudo OS for tomorrow...

This is exactly why I built the apps I have: I needed them. Luckily, it seems that other people need them too.

Cool idea, a little shady though. I mean, why would you use jpg for a graphic like this? http://appbackr.com/images/step-ideas.jpg </complaint>

I actually run a site called BitBuffet that let's you sell individual files (like PDFs). Or are you wanting to charge a one time fee for access to a site?

Is it just me or are unpaid internships a way to prey on the not-so-savvy young person, especially those indoctrinated at universities to find any internship come hell or high water? I dunno, it just seems like a scam to me.

This brings up a great point. Great jazz players are horrible marketers. Oddly enough, I think some of their "practice" time could be better put to use spreading the word or pounding the pavement.

It seems society has a notion that music alone cannot in and of itself be the only event.

Not that I entirely agree with this article, but as a jazz musician, it definitely interests me. I am curious though; when was the last time everyone listened to an entire album while doing nothing else? (no driving, surfing, working, etc..

A great, enlightening comment on Reddit's Sociapath IamA that discusses 13 rules for dealing with sociopaths: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/a5xvv/iama_diagnosed_s...

What a cool product! I love it! I'm curious, did you build/design this yourself and what did you build it on?

1) Several months (say... November '09?). Spending about 2-3 months to build and launch each project (trying to get something with a little traction). 2) Never applied. 3) Not even close. Highly doubtful anyone wants to invest in my part-ti

Cool concept! I like the idea and just signed up. Will definitely give it a spin and give some deeper insight. The design is sparse (almost in a good way). If I were you, I'd think of some ways to tighten up the feel. Rip off some other web

I am curious if the technique described in this paper ( http://www.cam.cornell.edu/~sharad/papers/searchpreds.pdf ) would give an advantage over the long run. I would imagine that if the majority of bets are placed for entertainment value b

I'm not too up on Google's Checkout offering, but we have some stats and pretty graphs and such, multiple buttons, and we work with PayPal (which has more of a name recognition for buyers anyways). I'll definitely look into Google Checkout

I run a simple little site that works as the middleman between PayPal "Buy It Now" buttons and shooting off an email with an expiring download link from a secure server. I'd be happy to give you a couple months free to dabble in ebooks! Hit
