I can't think of a time when Arrington was seriously wrong. His leads get in way before the news breaks and his stories have even altered what was to be announced. I doubt Mike just made this all up. Especially how everyone in that room has

It would be nice to hear of some hypothetical usage opportunities. My website usually comes with a keyboard and mouse and a using a phone seems more cool than realistic. With one good example, I could get excited about the possibilities.

that's not true. I can not delete my account at this very moment. You have sucked in 6 of my accounts and have not showed me an ounce of value. That was a terrible decision.

fucking unbelievable. Apparently, small teams of apple lawyers aren't as effective as startups.

This is the best thing to happen to Java. Hopefully, this gives that community a ladder to catch up to the innovation around true open source communities.

The author does a great job looking at historical Kickstarter successes and optimizing his changes to achieve his goal. This guy may be an artist, but he's got great business sense too and that's rare in today's the art world.

Could someone name other companies that do continuous deployment? I've only heard that IMVU uses buildbot.

Truth: Steve Jobs came in for a demo before launch. Sidenote: It sounds like apple has you paranoid.

im guessing this is back pay for the funds crowley put in after his angel round. Because there was no way you go from zero to 25 employees on $1m.

by jamesshamenski 16y ago
these numbers aren't correct. FourSquare didn't grow to 2m users on $1m. Last month before they publicly closed their financing, they had 25 employees and were expanding ( http://techcrunch.com/2010/06/28/checking-in-to-foursquare-a... ). M

Conde Nast looks like a bunch of chumps right now. I doubt Mike Raldi will last longer than a year if he has to raise funds in this way.

according to http://CERN.ch- CERN is neither swiss or french but neutral. So does that mean no country can claim to have invented the web?

first off, i've never seen such ridiculous stock photography as i see on your home page. Is the shot from 1981 a joke? Secondly, as a former hotel manager, i see this as a hack. You're selling me a replacement to my existing system. The val

NuCaptcha solves the exact problems that the article outlines.

It is funny that we are still using these old systems in CAPTCHA and reCAPTCHA. This week, NuCaptcha launched a video captcha offering. They have solved the readability and sweat labor issues that have come about. It's a true security offer

Google will lose lots of short term cash over this one. They've abandoned a lot of travel partners sites that are buying traffic. Google is transitioning from search to content. The travel industry is now shitting themselves. Hotels will be

I've done this with my last startup and also have seen this happen on two addition occasions with new employees putting in 6 figures each. 1. Funding is usually open for employees to participate. Founders love taking money from employees ra

If you do it, you're on your own. VC's don't invest in ideas that are not defensible (protected by patents). I'm sure there's an exception but you'd have to have a great working product to convince someone to give you cash in the wake of IP

If it's about rewards, isn't blippy in a better position? They see the actual transaction data and not just physical proximity. Foursquare is in a interesting position to extend the value of physical property (similar to augmented reality s

I still can't get over the $1B prize. Andrew just got massive points for pulling that off. I'm guessing that it cost $30m to insure that prize. (src=" http://scapromotions.com )

if it's not in my reader or HN, then it's not relevant. HN really has been my replacement to Digg because their community is obsessed with cheap content.
