I've tried the Emotiv headset, it doesn't work as advertised at all. Occasionally I could get the device to send the signal I was imagining, but it seemed pretty random. This is pure marketing for IBM cloud services, the video doe

my problem with this type of app is that all of these capabilities are already handled faster/easier by other native apps without having to type out a full sentence of what I want....ie Google now (esp with voice search), yelp, uber, 4

One of the best use cases of twitter for me is customer service, a few complaints about @comcast is way more effective than calling and waiting on the phone for 20 minutes and fighting with the customer service agent... I was able to resolv

Yah I've been using Mac notebooks for the past 10 years. In the last few years, so many weird issues crop up esp when upgrading the OS... currently my MBP just dies when battery gets to about 15-20% without any warning.... That said, I

Cool! I've place a sell order for 0.94495180 at $300 ... lets see if it fills... A few things I noticed that could be improved.... 1) an easier way to enter orders for qty and price (like a way to copy my BTC balance to the sell box or

This is a great idea, buyers really love side by side comparisons... my main concern is how are products being populated? I'd like to know that I'm not potentially missing something by doing my product research on your site.

I've had only awesome experiences as an Uber rider (in the Boston area and Bay Area) and all the drivers I talked to seem pretty happy (especially ex-taxi drivers). I agree the software is a bit shotty, but I'd bet they are aware
