I want to kill email, by replacing it with something new. I don't want incremental improvements or altered workflows, but rather a new technical underpinning that lets people continue to write long-form messages to each other. I have m

Part of the problem is the hiring process. I'm very interested, but knowing where to start on something like this is difficult. When I applied to the Presidential Innovation Fellowship a year and a half ago, and there was no communicat

It's all just a matter of risk management: - Simply copying your data to a second hard drive in the same machine protects against hard drive failure. - Second disconnected hard drive protects you from ransom-viruses and accidental eras

Exactly. (I can't believe I had to scroll down this far to find this.)

I'm thinking of buying a CrashPlan Business account (my corp uses the Enterprise version) for my family for this reason. I set them up with TimeMachine, but even plugging in a USB drive has proven to be too much to remember.

He was a paid user. Therefore, not a free service at this point.

5% actually sounds about right to me, just based on gut. If he continues to be involved, even in just an advisory capacity, I would think about issuing him more shares over time -- you might argue that at that point he's starting to pr

Yeah...until someone on the guest wifi owns the router. I'm not saying it is, or isn't, likely -- I don't know much about Comcast's Arris Touchstone Telephony Wireless Gateway Modems, but it is a risk. Then again, so is

Of course, hashing _and_ expiration would be best. I'm not really seeing any good reason _not_ to expire them...

Oh, _now_ you tell me not to get addicted! >:( You should've made that a splash page to the site, not an edit to a comment on the submission link. But seriously, well done. :) Completely destroyed my productivity.

On the East-to-West axis, it's probably defaulting there because it's the International Date Line. No idea how it's picking that spot on the North-to-South axis though.

Also very interested in this story... Where would you put it up once you write it? (So I can start monitoring...)

No, there are guests allowed. I asked if I could fly someone to visit me instead of me going to them, but the account manager said I had to accompany all guests. =\ Understandable, but less useful for me.

My only gripe with Rackspace is how long it takes for them to push out a new version of Exchange when they're released... Was something like a year and a half after Exchange 2010 was released before it appeared on Rackspace? Curious to

I am not necessarily taking a stance for or against New Compose here, but I am taking the stance that your advice is somewhat near-sighted. Here's a little experiment that demonstrates why: name "Revert to Previous Behavior" modes in any ma
