Nice, I just stumbled across them earlier today looking for a web/cloud based customizable dashboard. Will check out. What I really want though is something that can both pull data into itself and take data I push, and save the data so I'll

What are the advantages of souptime over say the $10 pingdom plan?

If you're a retailer, you're not looking so much at the browser percentage, but rather at the revenue percentage, which is about 1.6% for us. Enough to care about. We don't optimize for IE6, but we do make sure the site functions on it. Int

I'm surprised people are so reluctant to use the flag as a downvote, since it has approximately the same effect. I make it a point to visit the 'new' page and use it liberally on TSA articles, political articles, Gruber articles, etc., as w

Steve Blank has written pretty extensively on this - the point of a startup is to search for a repeatable and scalable business model. The business model and product are fluid and change in response to feedback from potential customers. He

Yes, obviously. My comment was directed at "the studios" if that wasn't clear.

Yes, and thank goodness they've stamped out piracy on those operating systems with integrated DRM.

The problem with competing with AddThis and ShareThis is that they're dirt simple to slap on a page and free (not to mention they target more than just Facebook). The advantage you have is that their target is sharing web pages and your tar

I've noticed the same thing - Boggle comes easy, but Scrabble does not.

Yeah, would be interesting to see a map colored with overall health inspector visits and see if there's a correspondence.

Unfortunately this is standard operating procedure for Android. The source is open, but the development process is not.

And conversely, when all the subtasks are completed the parent should automatically be completed.

Our email newsletters are incredibly reliable sales generators. If we felt we could send them every day, we would. Do yourself a favor and build in link tracking/image load tracking to your processes as soon as possible. The historical data

From the title I thought this was for 1 game from 1 person, but this is across 5 or so games for the 6 person (according to Wikipedia) company.

How many 100% recyclable products that we use end up being 100% recycled? I'm all for cheap solar but you can't just wave your arms and say "it can be recycled" without considering the costs of an effective recycling program.

Actually what scares me is that I log in and find out that Pandora apparently has a public profile for me. WTF? I sign up for Pandora and somehow Rapleaf gets my email from them?

Given that his Android revenues are 50% of iOS, seems like supporting both is where the money is. I'm surprised it's that high actually - not long ago people were throwing out figures like 10%.

Looks more like $1k per horizon line to me, but $4.5k/day is impressive nonetheless!

Perhaps, but Verizon's LTE will be a "dumb pipe": https://www22.verizon.com/opendev/faq.aspx It will be interesting to see what happens.
