I disagree that this is the same thing. At the release of Mozilla 1.0, the website looked like this: http://web.archive.org/web/20020802080030/http://mozilla.org... -- clearly targeted towards developers, with product download links hidde

We were quoted $600 for a 2-person cubicle, plus around $100 for connectivity and IT services, and a $100 one-time setup fee. They offer more than just office space, though: Regularly, angels and VCs come in that you can pitch to, and (for

Some feedback: * The connections-drawing tool is somewhat broken: First it wouldn't show for me at all ("Loading..."), and then when I wanted to correct something, the eraser didn't remove the lines (although I think it did invalidate them,
