It's seems to be a [very] poor attempt at creating a webpage with a form for an offline service. (Not much in the way of hacking, per se)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is just a cobbled together CMS front-end with clip art icons and generic photos for what appears to be a proof-reading service, am I correct? Or am I missing some sort of technological breakthrough?

It's a fair assessment. In my view version 1.0 should be a MVP that addresses the basic needs of the user as they pertain to the underlying system. Decoupling the UI and applying it to the system via API is the ideal solution, but rarely do

85% UI polished?!? It's a miracle if some people can get it to look 50% complete. For some reason, and by magic, the UI incrementally degrades given the number of days in the hands of certain engineers. I'm not saying that everyone is like

You have to separate business events from community events. I never take offense to not being invited to a business event, even one held in-house, where management is looking to schmooze with potential investors, partners and clients. Manag

I already use IFTTT.com to record all links I send and all of the ones I star to Evernote. Works pretty good, but with a fifteen minute lag.

You're right. My sister lived on Northwest St. up in Portsmouth for a number of years. I'd visit about 3 or 4 times a year. Never once visited the Albacore. I just have no interest in subs. But I'm sure Peter's Palace around the corner saw

Yes, I've looked into that. Much better than the standard walking tours with a (mis)guide dressed up in pre-Industrial garb. It's a very interesting concept for those interested in trying something new, but maybe hard to get over the fear-f

But I'm not the average person and my time is better spent visiting things of value, to me, in a foreign city. It doesn't make me any better of a person to visit Navy Pier, Pier 39, Pier One, Anthony's Pier Four or Piers Morgan just because

I have to say that I'd really like to see the data on that. This looks like an unpersonalized kitchen sink attempt to cover everything. You can buy/rent/scrape all the locations, with geo data, from a variety of resources.

I'm sorry, but people from Boston don't go to Cheers and you're assuming that tourists are really looking to visit these traps because of the plethora of mentions these places receive in poorly conceived travel guides. In this case, Gowalla

Well, it is a pivot, I'll give them that. And as always their design is superior but if they insist on listing locales like "Cheers" in Boston as a destination in their guide, they're going to find themselves pivoting to something else in t

The site design is hideous and should've made a better attempt at mating Gowala with AirBnb, but I love the idea. I walked across a chunk of Europe a couple of years ago and made good with hostels and such, but many times would've just pref

The life of any app is measured in years, the best of which is when you sell to a "larger organization that can use its widespread exposure to further grow the community" while it dies a couple of years later. Just look at Yahoo!'s portfoli
