While I don't think there isn't a single canonical form for a landing page for the obvious reasons, I really appreciated the color-mood pairs at the end of the article. I'll keep them in mind the next time I'm choosing the colour scheme for

I've always had the feeling that working 'literally' from home is a recipe for heavy procrastination. I think I'd rather spend a little bit of money and get some office space somewhere, so I can somehow force myself a routine, interact with

I think the majority of developers/startup founders have no problems sharing their idea or plan before launch date. They talk about it to attract new prospective clients, collaborators, create interest and so on. Very few operates in stealt

I know many will disagree with me, but I've always had the feeling that advertising on mobile apps is there to exploit user distraction. I haven't got any source to back my theory, nor any conversion rate stats, but I would say that a big c

I like it :) the auto mode is a nice touch, but please get rid of the "OMZG! NO laziness detected!" thing, it's distracting and looks like an error message..

Hey guys, I've heard about Mashape before (tagliaerbe etc.) but never really had a chance to get a closer look at it. As a developer myself, I can see what the whole thing is about, but it's not super clear what are the advantages of using

Good job Roman, I enjoyed Mallette's interview. I'm not sure if having a completely heterogeneous set of guests is a good idea, rather than focusing on smaller niches. This way I feel like there are low chances that I'd be interested inyour

Agreed. Seems to me that they're just trying to inflate the number of adwords impressions this way, and not helping me in any way with my search. And it's utterly distracting too. Excuse the negativity.
