After trying everything under the sun, I’ve found the Sculpt to be one of the most comfortable ergonomic keyboards out there, and its priced really well too. The issue is that stupid dongle, I keep loosing it, and the dongle needs a dongle

Yeah, noticed that. Personally hate having to download to get the content, and even though I've tried several times I couldnt get it to work on my ipad or iphone. Love the agressive user acq strategy, just wondering if its working

Adobe.com has a pretty solid interface and lots of functionality, and there's a free version for individuals. Slideshare just launched PowerPoint sharing with video with their Zipcast features. Salescrunch is about to have some really cool

I think the accusation is that it is somehow a "low brow" startup. See NY Mag's approval matrix: http://nymag.com/arts/all/approvalmatrix/71237/ All I can say is wow, they scaled super fast (scaled real people), and thats not easy

I've been using Grancentral ever since it was aquired by google, and its been great. The main use was so that I didn't have to give out my personal cell phone number for work, and so that I didn't have to carry a second phone. Having a sepa
