Are they asking you to give them foo.com? Or just not use it as your domain/company name. Negotiate to keep it and setup terms that you'll phase it out and make it clear that it's not associated with Foo, inc.

I'd LOVE to see browsers support typographically correct hyphenation, it'd make narrow columns of text look sooo much better.

> Another is to be clever. That's what startups do best... Amen to that. The fact that we give Twitter such a hard time about their growing pains is reflective of our growing "reliance" on them. Clever approaches to "mission-critical" a

I really appreciate the minimal "case" these are in. Saves material and makes the containers lighter.

+1 for Authorize.net. Paypal's Website Payments Pro is good too. Consider the trade offs between better user experience if the payment process is on your site vs. not having to deal with PCI compliance with a hosted solution.

My question is why not a real mule? More flexible refueling options, has already been through many iterations, and not nearly as expensive. Seriously.

Very important point. That being said, it's not an one-or-the-other issue. I can do 100% of my UX/UI design in OmniGraffle and then implement it as black boxes on a white page and have a well thought-out easy to use site. On the other hand,
