I think the direct link to the page on the Apple Store (which includes a good description of the app) is far more valuable than a link to a blog post that says "Hey guys, I made this app free" which may or may not include a link to where yo

The latter. You'll generally see strategies based around a certain facet of internet advertising (buy PPC ad placement, do SEO, follow people on Twitter discussing the item/niche, etc.), but few people will combine them or leverage them in

Where are you getting this 10-20mm number? That wasn't even accurate (it's too low) a year ago. The value of the deal with Google alone was 30mm. That's just a single facet of their monetisation strategies. They've also introduced Sponsored

If you can filter out the noise, you can find a few gems. I've had good luck with taking existing promotion methods (which everyone and their brother are doing) and putting a unique twist on them. If you can think outside the box, you can d

Yeah, I understood that. I don't blog and personally think blogging is mostly a waste of time (time spent writing = time not making money), but I basically explained the major concepts behind what I've spent the greater part of 2010 doing.

Having worked from Twitter's office in late 2009, I'm privy to a bit of their financials from that time and onward. They're definitely profitable since then. Profitable companies often raise money... I don't see why this is out of the ordin

Twitter's been profitable since their Google and Bing search deals lit up around last November.

$1,000 USD/day isn't even hard to attain if you have some coding/sysadmin skills and can grok basic marketing techniques. There's plenty of offers and affiliate programs that pay upwards of $20 per conversion and there's myriad white, grey

None from me, but make sure your resume/CV is current before doing so (especially if you're a wheel that can be replaced).

A handful of the highest throughput Tor exit nodes (named "blutmagie") are run by a single German fellow who is technically/legally his own ISP. Since it's not the same person, I'm assuming the one mentioned in the article did not go throug

Thanks for the explanation. I've never used AOLServer and was unaware of its limitations. Seems to have the same limitations/scaling problems as the two most popular Apache MPMs. :) My main setup nowadays is HAPRoxy -> nginx load balanc

I wonder why they have that there when they're actually running nginx: 689 ~ % curl -i bit.ly/test HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Server: nginx/0.7.67 Are they using AOLServer behind nginx? That seems bizarre.

I know a few people who run OpenBSD, but none of them use IPSEC. Are there any figures about the number of people running OpenBSD in situations where they're also using its ISPSEC capabilities? This, to me, seems like it would be the equiva

This is great! I'm hoping that it does, in fact, allow you to run as a relay with the option to run as an exit node. Running a relay is nowhere near as (potentially) legally problematic as running an exit node based upon what I've read.

Ah, you're right. I was scanning the comments and came across "SHA1 + salt" and overreacted. Sorry.

Though this is (apparently?) a joke, I would donate if there were other options besides Google Checkout. Git is one piece of software that I can unequivocally say has changed my life for the better.

I like that they use nginx as an asset host and not also as a reverse proxy in front of Apache. Xerxes and Slowloris still rule supreme.
