HireFire is fantastic (can't recommend it enough for people using Heroku). We use it at backstitch ( http://backstit.ch ) and it has saved us a ton of cash early-on.

Definitely interesting the trend that Google is following, first with iGoogle and now Reader. With backstitch ( http://backstit.ch ) we get questioned a lot why Google is no longer supporting these types of services (and if this means there

For about a year I worked from home and due to impending cabin fever I decided to give coffee shops a try. It was super loud and I always felt like I had to keep moving and buy something. It was just distracting. I then rediscovered my lo

I've actually noticed that the low amount of noise (as well as the higher character limit) has caused me to have better conversations than I've ever had on Twitter.

They definitely need a better way to determine what content gets featured on the front page of their site.....the first image was a nsfw collection...

I've only really seen screenshots of metro but this app looks like a bad recreation. Are the colors usually that bright and are the fonts that padded?

GameWisp looks pretty interesting, I wonder if we are going to see more and more cloud services focused on supporting mobile/web games rather than applications.

Wasn't the lore of Lucas having the entire series 'practically written/envisioned' debunked after people saw how the 'new' trilogy turned out? (ex. metachlorian)

We have been using MongoHQ for a bit now and their service has been quite good and very accommodating (especially when our db suddenly stopped storing data during a critical time). However for a growing bootstrapped startup their cost struc

I tried to do a 'Show HN' this morning but I think I might have submitted it a bit early. ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4537457 ) We just opened our product for public testing and would love to hear what you think.

We actually started work on backstitch before Google's announcement but seeing the number of petitions to save the service as well the outraged comments by the passionate user base we are more than happy to step in as a replacement :)

Thanks for the feedback! We feel that now is a time of unprecedented noise when it comes to managing our digital lives. Five years ago we weren't juggling the shear number of blogs, daily deal sites, and multiple social feeds that we are to

If you like Shark Tank definitely check out the Canadian version of Dragons' Den. It is more focused on the pitch rather than the at-home story of the people pitching. You can find most of the episodes on YouTube.
