   That's nice. MSFT should take action against the vendor and come clean out of this.

   So I tried going over all the emails, docs posted over techcrunch and here are some thoughts. I do wonder why is no popular blogger/journalist out there taking Fusion Garage's side and highlighting these points ? These are entirely my inter

   You do not describe the nature of the company. If its a technical company and you do plan to stick around, you should negotiate founder stakes, which degrade to employee options if you quit within say 4-5 years. Since none of the co-founder

    What is more interesting to notice is the aggressive use of Javascript on Google's homepage as for long Google has tried to keep the old browsers without JS support in mind. This indicates that the web is rapidly moving towards more advance

    I do not think so. We have for long hidden controls in Menus and Context Menus.

    I wish your study accounted for the elasticity. I end up using 20-30 machines (sometimes 100) for couple of hours every day. Normally, I would use 3-4 large instances. I wonder how EC2 compares with others in scenarios similar to above.

    I do not embrace that too. I have spent a good deal of my last 3 years out of college learning usability and can not agree more on what you said. However, I do believe if hacker news was more obvious and followed all those principles, it wo

    An auto-complete would do good to this app. A rich auto-complete with images, better.

    I would rather love to see it go more complicated and geeky. Hackers would figure it out and non-hackers would get filtered away.

    Remove the radio buttons. Just focus on textbooks or cluster results and let user drill down if he's interested. Learn from Google.

    First, feel a little good about yourself. From what I can imagine from your profile, you are definitely in top 1% in the world and have no reason whatsoever to have sleepless nights. If I was you I would do the following : - Take a short va

    I could not get it to work. Simply shows me links which take me to various browser pages. I use FF 3.0 on Mac.

    I am curious to learn about this. Would you care to provide a link ? Is it something available only to Google Partners or everyone in general. A lookout on web for this doesn't fetch me anything relevant.

    - Normal adsense unit can not have query terms high-lighted. - These ads look targetted to the query. There is no way Google can crawl such a long tail so quickly to target ads on the content. - Do a view source, these ads were generated on
