The question I'd like to pose (and it's something I have a hard time with answering myself): Would you prefer that the government watches your Google searches, your forum postings, your Facebook messages, and your emails and poten

Just spitballing here, but couldn't you just remove the hardcoded URLs and let users paste in the Snapchat URL so they'd be breaking the TOS, not you? Technically, it wouldn't be utilizing their API, it would just be a PHP li

Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't this been there for a while? I know classmates who have been mortified when they find out that who they Snapchat with is public.

Maybe I'm missing something... if Twilio's going rate is $0.01/message, wouldn't it make better financial sense to sit down and just build this yourself? It's not like it requires a bunch of infrastructure...

I think I saw a comment somewhere about your IP being banned after an hour... anything we should do to avoid this? I'd hate to be scanning for 15 minutes only to be banned and not be able to help anymore.

Well, maybe... If the police were to work with the postal service, they could find the originating post office. Then again, they could more or less do this now, and they don't.

Thanks! Yeah, I'm not quite sure how to prevent human error without everyone having barcode sticker printers, which seems extremely unlikely.

I totally see where you're coming from, but since the system is mostly automated (as far as I can tell), it'd be just as easy for them to grab from a DB than to try and parse out an adress and postage. I didn't really start mailing things u

Followup: Got a response from Name.com... it looks like the only thing they can do in this situation is transfer the domain to next of kin (rather then letting someone else be the billing contact) Hopefully the Swartz estate understands how

I've emailed both Linode and Name.com asking if I can pay for his domain and hosting to continue on for eternity. http://d.pr/i/2ysc (and they're looking into it - https://twitter.com/namedotcom/status/290111405410091008 ) http://d.pr/i

Quick note about CAPTCHAs... A more accurate rate is $1.50 per 1000, and that's even a tad expensive. If you buy in bulk, it's much cheaper. Source: Security researcher.

Wow... this looks really awesome! Some ideas: - An iPhone app or web interface - Allow you to upload a photo as a response - Some sort of API to add things like "How many emails did you send?" or "How many Twitter followers did you gain?" -
