This was a rip-off of an idea I had three years ago: http://inspir.es/post/26544333/on-productivity The only difference is that I didn't put ads on it, submit it to social bookmarking sites or ask for visitors' email addresses for no disc

Conjunctured already filled up their main space and since expanded to another location. The people I know there love it and many would give up their apartment before they gave up their co-working space. This should definitely be your first

My biggest frustration with Adwords is that when you create a new campaign, Google sets ad serving to "optimize" rather than "rotate." This means Google gradually shows higher performing ads more often, which would appear to be helpful. But

I think the disagreement most people would have with this approach is that you're coming at it from the wrong side. It's money first and then "oh yeah, I'd better add some value."

An "outlet" is one of those Freudian concepts that hasn't been proven and Wikipedia says that scientific opinion is divided. It just seems illogical to me. When your options for spending time and energy are infinite, are we required to incl

I think this exists as the HTML version of Gmail. If you want Gmail to be lite, quick and dirty - use the HTML version and you'll be cruising in no time. (To use the HTML version, click the link on the load screen. Or in the footer of your

The best part of this idea is that they're starting a fund for Mailchimp API integration but not taking any equity. Why is this cool? Because most...no, all funds that I've seen take equity. They're rewriting the rules of how a fund like th

I just upgraded and they made more money off me than before. Here was my situation: Campfire: $12 Backpack: $12 Basecamp: $24 Highrise: $24 I folded one of each into the $99 suite. I'm paying $99 now instead of $72, but I've been knocking a

This IS Twilio and OpenVBX - hosted and dressed up a bit. It's a nicely executed, simple idea for anyone who doesn't want to worry about an OpenVBX installation / updates / support etc.

I just finished reading a classic book about this called "Applied Imagination." It was written in 1952 and established many commonly accepted ideas about creativity and brainstorming. I pulled relevant excerpts and posted them here: http:/

Google Apps standard edition is free. The only thing you're saving here is the 5-10 minutes it would take to switch MX records and verify your domain. Name.com has this built in as well and they're a proper registrar.

Not to mention .tv. I think many people consider .tv a creation for television and video on the Internet, but it was originally reserved for the island of Tuvalu. For a time, GoDaddy had a popup when you went to register a .tv domain statin

I like Twilio and I'm a customer. It seems they did the best they knew how with this situation. But that was a really terrible apology and seems more insulting than assuaging to anyone affected. It's like there's a rule that once you have m

Why not just remove your old high school friends as Facebook friends? What you'd have left is a small social network filled with only people you want to keep in touch with. Privacy complaints, not trusting Zuckerberg, objecting to valuation
