That's not clear at all to me from the facts stated. There is a global recession going on right now, which began a while ago. I don't have any hard evidence on why her job search is not yielding results, that's true. However, I've seen p

As far as employment is concerned there is zero difference between a US citizen and a permanent resident... True...the difference is in the perception.

It's anecdotal, but my wife moved here 1.5 years ago and before she quit her job to move here with me, she was a Global Application Manager for DHL International (Deutsche Post). She was responsible for a team of software engineers and sup

We just did a "Review my app" here on HN. http://flooha.com It's a place where open source developers can upload their add-ons (and apps in the future) and users can add their software to their website just by clicking. We hope to bring

Thanks a lot. "With the plans starting at $5 a month I imagine you aren't using amazon EC2 to host the virtual machines. (I'm assuming each user has their own VM)." You are correct. The paid plans will probably not be on Amazon EC2. We're l

I agree. I was just responding to his comment that he doesn't trust a service that doesn't have paying users who subsidize the free users. The point of the freemium model is to attract paying users.

Thanks, great comments. I've put off adding a lot of javascript goodness simply to get a working beta out faster. Is it just me or is debugging ajax stuff annoying? "I could see myself using this as a quick way to start new projects" Exact

The model is freemium. I wanted to work out the bugs with the early adopters (we're in beta), and then reward them with a discount when we launch our premium hosting. It's a chicken and egg problem. There currently aren't any users to su

:) Yeah, that's one I've debated a lot about. It came about when explaining the site to a designer who was working on the logo. It was getting wordy trying to explain the concept through text and I just ended it by saying "In other words

Wow. Thanks so much! I think the general idea has been out there for a long time. Many people have written app specific "add-on installers", myself included. I wrote one in php for osCommerce, then realized that the real opportunity was f

Great idea! Every package that is built is saved for immediate download or installation when other users choose the same add-ons. So, for every permutation, there is a corresponding "app version". It was my hope that the popular versions

Drupal is the only CMS currently offered, but hopefully this will change in the near future. Drupal is considered MUCH more secure than Joomla!, which is one of the reasons why I started with Drupal. All CMSs will have security issues at

I agree, WordPress is not the best example now that it has the "plugin installer" in the administration control panel. I will probably change the app used in the video tour. However, WordPress is the exception, not the rule when it comes t

Trying to make building customized websites suck less. Have you ever tried to build a MediaWiki site with extensions, or an osCommerce/Zencart site with contributions? It sucks so bad, I'd rather claw my eyes out. Most of the installation

The author thinks that a handshake is "an annoying relic of the past.", and launching an app and bumping phones is somehow superior? Whatever. A handshake can tell you a lot about a person and gives us a little, sometimes much needed, hum
