Love Uber. After using it for over a year, just had my first negative experience this past weekend in SF when the UberX driver had no clue how to get from SOMA to Ocean Beach. I left negative feedback and in a few hours got a response from

I use GroupMe; although it isn't laid out as "beautifully" as Path is, it's simple to use and you can share photos pretty effortlessly. I don't think it has as many bells and whistles as Path (I installed it once but then ended up deleting

The best was putting proximity mines on the body armor!

Yes! Left joystick + R + left C, twirl around and end up back in the vent. Plant a mine at the spawn point and hope you don't end up there when you die before someone else does!

My brother works there as a QA, and he's enjoyed every minute of it. There is a reverence and appreciation for their users that trickles down from the CEO into the rest of the company that seems to be the exact opposite of the situation at

I would love to see an AmA with a Color employee to get the inside scoop on what's going on there. It must be devastating for morale for a rumor to spread that everybody assumed was going to happen at some point anyway (was anybody surpris

I agree that this is a huge opportunity and a fantastic idea; I thought of a similar concept a few months back and came to the same conclusions. It's one of the reasons I'm bullish on companies like Square and Groupon; they have the relati

Yep, right now I'm using Soundcloud and following a user on there who frequently posts new sets from popular artists. But it's just one user; I'd love to see that concept expanded upon and taken to a new site entirely. This site has been bo

And the font is about 10px and 30%K buried in the bottom corner. I can understand that would be desirable if the algorithm was more accurate in filtering bogus reviews, but that's clearly not the case so it just seems unscrupulous.

Wow, those 1-star reviews are pretty scathing too. I had no idea that negative reviews were filtered like that; that pretty much ruins my trust in the review component of the site. From now on, I'll be using Yelp for contact info. and pri

An idea I've been mulling the past several weeks: Netflix for clothes. If you can make the econ. work it could be a killer concept.

I've been thinking about this exact idea for the past month or so and still love it. I recently tried Trunk Club, which is a similar service but they actually select the clothes for you and you only pay for what you keep and send the rest b

If you're looking for warmer weather + sunshine, then the Pacific Northwest isn't really going to do it for you as long as you're east of the Cascades (Seattle, PDX, etc). I just moved to SF from Portland, OR myself and the difference in cl

The one I remember is .333 (repeating) = 1/3. .333(3)=.999. 1/3(3)=1. Therefore, .999=1.

I remember people saying Google was steep at $85 when it IPOed in 2004. I think at their most basic level, they're fundamentally the same: Google defined search, and now Facebook is defining social. I'll be picking up some shares after the

I am much more risk tolerant than most, as I gave up a $100K job to join the startup I mentioned a few months ago. The difference between that startup and this one is that I know one of the cofounders well, and both are very intelligent and
