Good question - I wonder what the default breakdown of public vs. private shares for FB users are and how SERPs are weighting FB shares vs. tweets/retweets. Does anyone know what percentage of content on FB gets indexed?

"Accidentally" It's funny when unintended changes and mistakes lead to better conversions. An example that comes to mind was PlentyOfFish's poorly resized images leading to higher profile clickthroughs since people wanted to see the image

He even made the sites functional with facebook, which I thought meant for sure there was no reason to question him. Why does adding a FBConnect button make him more trustworthy? I see several things wrong with this sentence.

Interesting - why would Zynga want a social browser? Are we going to start seeing gamification in the browser? Open ten tabs to get $ in Farmville! Otherwise, this is a really expensive talent acquisition.

I'm fairly sure at least the posting tweets part of this won't work anymore since basic auth was turned off a few months ago. It looks like this was posted not too long before basic auth was turned off though.

I'm not advocating affirmative action or anything even remotely resembling that. In fact, I'm not offering any kind of solution at all. Just responding to having my eyes opened a little bit by a first-hand account of the struggles a woman i

How do you measure talent while recruiting? The person with the most accomplished resume or who can answer your technical questions most aptly? Both are only proxies, albeit usually pretty good ones, for measuring talent. Perhaps that inter

Granted, I've only interviewed for summer internships (and hope to never have to interview for a job), but the majority of employers didn't ask about/didn't care about my grades. Some of the best hackers I know aren't straight A students, a

You should check out Tapzilla - http://tapzilla.com (YC S2010) - you only pay for actual app installs rather than paying $100 for 994 clicks, which leads to 4 installs (I had no idea install rates per click were as low as 0.40%!). They ju
