Just because a website can email you your password doesn't mean they store them in plain text. They can store them in a reversible encryption scheme like rijndael.

Fundraising can be a full time job in itself. If you are looking for opinions only, I would suggest option A. If you can afford to outsource the work with your current capital then you can do that, but if you are going to fund-raise then y

The only thing I have ever used robots.txt for is to stop from leaking pagerank. I have a folder called /redirect/ and i exclude that folder in my robots.txt. I then link to sites like this /redirect/?l=www.mysite.com Anything I don't wan

Really depends on how hands on you want to be. For my clients, I keep all of their domains under our company GoDaddy account. That allows me to make changes at 2AM if something comes up. It also means that we don't have to get a password

I notice that no one has mentioned Hyper-V yet. While it isn't perfect it is free. Mind you, you do need to be running Windows Server, but if you are already running windows you should consider it. I am curious how it stands up to all the

Even if there is a tech bubble, so what. You just need to do due diligence when dealing with a company. Does the company offer true value or is it a fad? For example, FaceBook. yes, there are millions of people on there, but their reven

In Cambridge Engineering, Inc. v. Mercury Partners they found that the non-compete clause was so broad as to keep the employee from finding reasonable work, so it was thrown out. In this case, you signed the non-compete agreement while you

I personally like fixed monthly or yearly. It is easy for me to budget for that. I would hate for me to run out of credits and my site stop working, and on the same token, I would hate to get a $1500 bill and I was only expect $30.

alas, for every person that delete their profiles there is another 2-3 that sign up. I am not saying that is sustainable, but they are growing. This is especially true in Asia where in the last 2 years has quadrupled.

Google voice can dial an existing landline. What i mean is when i get home, I want to be able to place my cell into a cradle and when it rings it rings all the home phones, and calls made from any of the phones in the house would route thr

This is not really surprising. I have a VOIP home phone, but only because I don't want to chase down my cell when it rings. If i could just have my cell phone work like a cordless phone at home, i.e. all the phones in the house ring when

It sucks to be laid off at anytime, let alone at the end of the year (not because of Christmas). This is the worst time of the year to be looking for a job. I hope they got a decent compensation package to make it through the start of nex

I wonder if they could pull off a paid support subscription. You pay like $100 a year or something and get live phone or chat support.

What do you recommend to the founders that can't move to the bay area? Like people who own homes, have a family, etc? I know the YC requires it. I once emailed and asked about commuting because my co-founder and I both live in Sacramento,
