This really pisses me off! We don't get Skype in Canada and we Also don't get Kindle for the iPhone. We probably aren't going to get Tethering either. And we pay more than anyone else in the world for our wireless.

"It's really just complete gibberish. What is it?" He added: "When is this idiocy going to stop?" And I wonder why Orcale is struggeling? It's also funny how the previous Marc Benioff worked for Oracle before, left, and started one of the b

I think when Eric talks about taking out Google Adwords for testing, he means to do it in the way that "The 4 Hour Work Week" by Timothy Ferriss uses it. He uses Google Adwords as a mechanism to test his ideas and lays out certain criteria

I really like your site! I live in Calgary Alberta, and I am always looking for hiking trails, but it takes time to find them. I will definately use your site in the summer.

Knowingly having a hacker in an organization is a very difficult predicament. Yes people should be given a second chance, but is it worth all the possible negative press. I would not have kept him on. I don't know the guys though.

Agreed that recession is misleading in the title. I recently got back from India and I didn't make it into Dharavi. One thing that I found though is the fact that India didn't get the Memo that there is a world recession going on. They are

I think that a Business Plan is a working document that needs to change and evolve with the environment that your business is in. What I like about a business plan is the fact that it helps you to think about how you are going to run/operat

I think that hackers often work through the "normal" holiday time. I know that I use time to get some stuff done for sure. Some people might have a bit more time and therefore spend some more time reviewing your app.

This service is a great idea! It's simple and seems to be well implemented. I liked how you ate your own dog food, by using Mechanical Turk to decide if it's worthwhile putting up the service.
