Having great personal projects is key. We're really fortunate to be in an industry where you can so easily showcase your skills & talents. Through my interviews with startups (I'm a college Junior), they were much much more interested

What a great and honest post. Thank you for that. As for your company, it looks like an innovative and amazing idea. I, for one, would be a customer. Please nail San Francisco and then expand to my city. It's great to read that you've decid

Speaking as a college student, many of our campus "libraries" actually have very little books on-shelf. We have "stacks" where one could go and find volumes of books and other literary works from decades ago...but we also have an online dat

Fascinating insight. But isn't this a classic case of of correlation, not causation?

Here's a question. Love the app, but can I login to my account? I don't have a normal YC-account, but rather one through Open-ID with my Google Id.

Could a fellow nerd explain to me why Bitcoins are a good idea? Or what the idea is behind them?

Anyone else bothered by the fact that TechCrunch just did a post essentially on one tweet? http://twitter.com/AndyBarton23/status/54973797148803072 edit: don't mean to openly bash TC. I'm just surprised by the lack of content here, a bit

Is it just me or was Bill's reaction so cordial and professional? I loved it; thought it was great. "While my recollection of many of these events may differ from Paul's, I value his friendship and the important contributions he made to th

Respectfully disagree. Twitter's more akin to Email. Much more of a staple product. It's like comparing how often Hurley emails/texts with how often he likes things and uploads videos onto YouTube.

What's so surprising about this? He's a busy man. When was the last time Chad Hurley used his YouTube account to do something? How often do you think Zuck is on Facebook? This is truly absurd. I don't often try to rain down insults at Tec

With all due respect, I really don't buy that story. I'm a fan of Digg and Alexis. Paul Carr said it best: "So at best they did zero research before they launched Reddit into a space that kinda relies on the founders knowing where to find

My main problem with this is the fact that it's actually a crime punishable by jail sentences in many places in Europe. Call it an observation of human stupidity, sure. But, last I checked, we don't jail people for being stupid or saying st

What I don't like about this is the following: Amazon Prime isn't available everywhere. What about the International markets? Or is this just a US thing?

I honestly don't mean to attack but I think I'd read this simply on the basis of good photography. This is our generation's Fall of the Berlin Wall; I'd say that's an interesting new phenomenon. Nothing too political about this, either. Lib
