Right? I came here to post the exact same thing. My animal brain kicked in immediately at the $800 a year and thought "woah, why is it so much?" Then I realized that's just $65 or so year.

Not sure if you are looking for this kind of feedback, but UI critique: I kept trying to click the light blue text, thinking it was a link. In fact, my assumption was finally validated, but only at the very bottom 'sign in with your Twitt

The real cultural hurdle isn't the indirectness in Japan, it's the burdening sense of obligation Japanese people who are connected socially feel to one another. Facebook already feels like a part time job to me, but transplant an urban Jap

Same here for sailing. Just got into it a few months ago. I love how intellectual the skills required for the sport are, and the long tradition of seamanship. Also one thing that appeals to the nerd side of me is there is so much special

Agreed, I like the idea and it's something I might use but the sample resume for Obama...it could definitely use some polish. Maybe you could work with a graphic designer on this? As for the front page, the layout is kind of odd. Having t

I have both an AppleTV and a Roku. These days my wife and I find ourselves spending a lot more time watching stuff on Roku than AppleTV. It's such a great, dead simple, little box.

Good point. I think a lot of a culture's attitude is based on cultural memory, which comes from lessons learned (or not) from history. Americans abroad are often elbowed about how young their country is (ugh, I lived in Beijing and they al

This article was strong because it balanced critique with commendation. It's an interesting observation that America's "bigness" in many things is simultaneously it's largest advantage and disadvantage. I've often felt that Americans tend
