agreed - i am shocked they aren't doing this. i understand that they want people to give it a try, but forcing users to either divulge all their information instantly or spend hours deleting manually - this is just hubris on the part of fac

the part about "don't upload in the first place" is interesting - i wonder if quality/quantity of sharing on facebook changes because people will (consciously or subconsciously) be thinking about the Timeline and how this post will fit in t

I absolutely did not write the article to piss anyone off - I am a developer who has spent my fair share of time trying to build checkin apps, etc. If anything, the post simply reflects my frustration that I can't use my skills to address

i definitely think it's possible.... but i still think it's a pretty big problem when basic medical information is harder to access than last week's restaurant reservation

that's the point... we are very efficient at getting restaurant reservations or booking flights or doing video chats with random people around the globe, but we can't apply technology to the most basic, fundamental problems that we are actu

this was a christmas project of mine that i went a little overboard on .... and it has turned into a rudimentary location based app. i would love people to test it out and give feedback. it uses jquery mobile and shows how far this project

we hope so! what we don't like about the other services is the neighborhood bucketing... you have to choose a (sometimes arbitrary) label for the area you're looking at and can only browse in that way.... if you live in SF you know that the

yes, this is endemic to startup culture and it is different from university - at universities, you are part of a collective group trying to graduate. in a startup, you are (for the most part) alone with your cofounder. it's a much more in

great article. founders need to read this - launching something new is such an emotional rollercoaster and the incredible highs can be matched by devastating lows. any startup involves visualizing a future that doesn't yet exist, and the pa

thanks! good ideas. for #3, have you or others had much success with this strategy? it seems like tech bloggers are inundated with these requests. any tips on how to stand out? or blogs that you'd recommend?

You have to give 99 Designs very clear guidelines and a lot of feedback to get a good result. You may want to call or email your contact person there and tell them you were dissatisfied - they may be able to help. Also, did you "guarantee"

Write to B. Ask him if he's made any decisions and re-iterate your interest. Treat it as another cover letter - another (very brief) chance to tell him/her why you're a great fit. Good luck!

thanks for your thoughts. we'd like to have more gatherings/marketplace type stuff on the site but that takes a certain critical mass - people know that on craigslist their ad will be seen. our site is still trying to build traffic. that'
