I'd love to know more from the tech perspective. Like what features/changes/insights resulted in the biggest bumps for shoplocket? Were there many idea pivots before you settled on shoplocket? Any key takeaways for other early stage startup

This whole thing seems fishy to me. Facebook is one of my best sources of traffic. It's cheaper than AdWords, I can do keyword, demo, and geo targeting all built in. And if I have a hit campaign, it's pretty easily scalable. If you tie it i

I am currently an nreduce participant. I see incubators providing three main benefits: 1. Community feel. Startups can get lonely, frustrating, etc. 2. Easier access to advisors/mentors/funders get to the next stage. 3. Credibility in the s

Couldn't someone start an alternative ticketing method using this as a model? Proactively squash scalping, select alternative venues, and only sign artists who have big email/twitter/facebook fan bases. This way, you can avoid the big chick

Never got to use IWantSandy, but how is it different from gmail recognizing events for you to add to your GCal, or adding Alerts? Is there something analogous today?

It depends on the number of hands he played. As it mentions in the article, the house edge is based on billions of simulated hands. If he played nonstop for 1 week, that is at most 14,000 hands (100 hands/hr x 20 hrs/day x 7 days). Card cou

You are viewing life through gloom filled lenses. It doesn't have to be this way. I have been working alone/startups for about 3 years when I quit my last job. I was majorly depressed for over 3 years without realizing it, because on the su

This could be a great alternative to Odesk/Elance/etc. I've done a decent amount of outsourcing ($X00,000) and some projects are much more suited to a team that knows each other than a group of individuals. And past just doing group project
