''It's a nice feature for Macintosh users,'' said P. J. McNealy, a senior analyst for Gartner G2, an e-commerce research group. ''But to the rest of the Windows world, it doesn't make any difference.'' Who is this Gartner research group? Ok

"Too many founders let emotions and egos cloud a decision that is really a number crunch. Once you accept that there will always be richer and wiser people out there, you'll find that they didn't get that way by taking dumb bets." Maybe I'l

I've never used an illegal drug in my life (edit: not that it matters). But, I really don't care if someone smokes weed. I think it takes a certain dysfunctional personality to get worked up enough to go after someone selling pot so aggress

Thanks for spelling that out for me. As for being simple - I have begun teaching myself somewhat recently while looking for a good match w/ someone more technical. I can really only handle html & css at this point - sad I know. Anyways,

I think Braintree does it, kind of: "By using our Transparent Redirect (TR) and Vault, merchants can achieve PCI Compliance in days. TR and the Vault will eliminate the handling, processing or storing credit card data so you can qualify for

I like the site - very nice. Has a somewhat similar look to mine...only better ( http://www.growtap.com ). Well done.

"At least for me, pitching a business as a platform when it really isn't tends to degrade what might be a really interesting vision and story in and of itself." I suppose, but that's a pretty small downside. For others pitching yourself as

Hey - no problem. Not like I spent much time on the original site. No need to apologize either - everyone these days loves an apology it seems! (sickening) I thought about it before you responded and my goal isn't to get anyone in CS in tro

You've surveyed the customers on the domain renewal price compared to GoDaddy and they prefer the $39.95? Or, they are given the option to purchase/renew from GoDaddy at checkout? Or, maybe what they don't know won't hurt them? "If you don'

Are the domain renewals still $39.95 through Weebly? Maybe if they raised the price on that they could have already built their new office.

Part of what hasn't been mentioned yet in favor of co-founders is that on the right team everyone makes everyone else better. Or, in this case, with the right combo you both make the product better together - over time. When I see someone

It definitely depends on customers - for example the normal HN crowd is not the normal retail crowd. Most people are not informed consumers. But, even those guys I worked with back in undergrad have moved on and used the same techniques to

It's the same as anything - how you look, your body language, the way you speak, the volume you speak at - it all matters and always will whether we like it or not. In undergrad I did some retail electronics sales. When I first started if I

I think they ripped it off because Square's design is great. And, personally I think it's pretty decent they acknowledge it. I've seen plenty of designs ripped off and nobody ever has the guts to give credit.

Yes, this post makes a lot of assumptions. I don't understand why I would question the motives of people who just want to use my site/product to complete tasks as simply as possible. And binary thinking? Just because I do one A/B test doesn

That is really funny. Too bad he did intranets and not landing pages/ecommerce - would love to see how playing "hard to get" works out for conversion.

iPhone: Frankly, originally purchased because that's what the c-level people at an old job had. But, beyond that I just want my phone to be simple - UX/UI, updates, etc. and I'm a sucker for great design.

I'm sad to learn that I'm among the more cynical - jk. But, is it possible to write this while not considering how it's going to influence the prospective hire? I don't think so.

I've used pickfu a few times - usually get results in 24 hours. I'm bad with colors so it's nice to be able to ask 50 people for $5 which look they like better of a site. It's great because I want real feedback - great when people really te
