   This article is outright stupid. Let's say for a second that Dustin really is a ridiculously ignorant designer (he's not) - who gives a crap? He's a customer who is really displeased not only with the AA website but with the total experienc

   I really don't understand how some of these scams can be even considered legal. And it's everywhere. I see the Jamster and other ringtone commercials all the time, and always wonder about how many hundreds of thousands of kids they fool int

   Worse in that people are falling into illusions of grandeur. I'd say it's more about being honest with yourself, and others, about your work and accomplishments. Embellishing is fine, but you do have to admit that it's gotten to a pretty ri

   "... except bill said that. this is a false meme that really, really needs to die." Yes, I know it's a misquote.

   Voting is probably the easiest way to quickly express your (dis/ap)proval with little effort, especially when the comment is so obviously insightful or stupid. Your analogy is a bit extreme, and I wouldn't mind people knowing whom I up/down

   Not sure if anyone else noticed, but the Google homepage has also been updated for Halloween. I know, I know, I've got way too much time on my hands, but it's always fun coming across these gems. Clickable link: http://www.google.com/ (lo

   Yeah, I was inquiring about international mailing, but from what the footer says, it's only limited to the US.

    I actually find Coke a lot more sweet than Pepsi, which is why I've always preferred drinking Pepsi. To me, Pepsi is a lot more clean and crisp, while Coke is sweet and foamy. Of course, I'm sure you'll find people fiercely arguing either o

    Nice to see him recommend and praise GetSatisfaction and showing that although they've received quite a beating recently, 37signals/etc, there are customers out there that actually find them useful.

    Your comment comes off as over-dramatic, and somewhat fake, almost like you're looking more for attention than justice. Nowhere on the app does it ask you for your sex. If you were so afraid of your application being viewed differently beca

    I used to think that until several months ago when I was on campus and got a call from a friend saying a gunman was roaming about, armed and ready to unload. The first thing I did was search for #uci (my uni) on Twitter and got hundreds of

    I feel if everyone took that last bit of advice to heart, no one would ever start a startup.

    I'd just like to say that you guys couldn't have launched in a more perfect time. I browsed your site when I saw it linked to on HN and didn't think much of it. My mom came home the following day with a new laptop and asked me to install a

    I went to an all boy's high school, and it didn't make much difference academically, to be honest. If anything, the lack of females made us act even more childish in class, and thus focus less, as we had no one to really impress. Kids often

    Don't apologize for kicking him while he's down, and then continue to give us information that accomplishes the very thing you're apologizing for. You have a talent for making the entrepreneurship world a lot more dramatic and childish than

    Thanks for the info. I'm planning to drive up there on Friday actually with a few friends, so we won't be tethered to any airport.

    Can you then explain what it's for? Genuinely curious here. I consider myself relatively open minded and understanding of new web concepts, but I just don't quite get it with Wave.

    Haha. You know, this must really be an amazing company. I have never used the product myself, but every time a post about Dropbox comes around, there are always at least a few comments of people just wanting to mention how much they love it
