I agree with you on ease to read on iPad/tablet. But for programming stuff I read a lot on my Kindle when I'm on the move or when I'm tired to sit in front of my computer screen and even if it opens PDF the rendering is never as good as the

I love the concept of branching which really take something great from (D)VCs to apply it to document reviewing. I always had trouble using word's revision system and having multiple people correcting/working on the same document at once. I

Apart from the flat rate how are you different from http://1dollarscan.com or http://www.bookscan.co.jp ? You indicate that you only support PDF for now, do you plan to support other formats? If so, how will you handle previous orders l

Clickable : http://www.redline.cc This seems like a nice way to report visual bugs and would be pretty useful for us instead of sharing screen through skype or making a printscreen before adding info around it. But how does your solution

I really like the idea of digital bottles delivering your feeling randomly to someone else. But it's a long way from chatroulette isn't it and calling this the Chatroulette for grownups kind of implied something related to sex/porn and it's

What I'm wondering is, is this parameter new? I check privacy setting at least once a month and I really can't remember seeing this one which was set at "everyone". I NEVER set a parameter to "everyone"

There was a discussion a few days ago about splitting shares : http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4379079 CodeCube provided a link to Joel Spolsky's answer on how to do this. He speaks about your specific case where you'd work full time

Strangely the bug does not seem to appear anymore sorry I cannot give you more info on this now. A clickable link or maybe a button with an image representing "Go to" action! Storing images forever seems really hard and costly wouldn't it?
