Im more curious about how many bank accounts are out there with 6 figure + sums in them which haven't been touched for years. Equally makes you wonder how many of the banks are enjoying profits from such accounts when clearly it must be sus

Congratulations on making headway in the "enterprise space". With that in mind, could you not approach a few of them and ask them to write testimonials to be used on your site?

On the tour page. Two options. ( Side note, if this was a uni paper, I would have said you padded it out with really large images, can they be a little smaller? Do you need to show the whole screen? Could the images work without being in co

A grand idea! But.. I have skimmed your front page and your tour page, yet im not feeling like I have grasped what you do clearly enough. I even went as far to skim the article by a very supportive Paul Stamatiou. He mentions you will use

Without going all Matrix esq, this is fascinating. 1) The potential to grow food anywhere. ( Spaceships, submarines, cave systems ) 2) From a green perspective, it would reduce many a carbon foot print in terms of travelling. Still to conqu

In the article, he mentions the concept of a Mexican wave and how it starts to get going and then slowly trickles out. From this I got the idea of measurement in "wave" and then the obvious "wavelength" jumped into my head and it stuck for

A message no longer has a "shelf life", but a "wavelength". For those struggling for ideas, you could build a "has this prize expired site, tracking these very RTs". A lesson learnt which they failed to mention is increase the time of your

It will only be dumb if they try and stay with the limitations of html and current browsers. If they take advantage of features unique to the iphone I think there is a chance it would be more successful. What if they gave you a better "offl

Thanks for that tip, I had wondered how best to do it. This will be the last time.

I too am in this process. (almost) My plan will be as follows: Build a simple system to offer an invite code. I add them to the system, and see if they take up the offer. "The invite code" will be going in emails specifically written to the

Im going to pull you up on semantics here im afraid. I specifically used the word "captivate". If I wanted to question its usefulness or helpfulness I would have maybe used one of those words. They have a foreground so you can click links,

It certainly is an innovative idea. As with the lady on the mobile, at first it would freak me out watching it fly into my vision if I wasn't aware of "fly by advertisement". With the wax detaching from the fly, could we then have the ad co

It might be obvious, BUT i know my knowledge doesnt include working with 28 terabtyes of data. Just reading it in the article is daunting! I wonder what sort of sandbox they have to play on. They also probably lack the ability to Google or

From what little this article gives away, it seems to me like AOL are getting ready to further upset the newspaper industry online. Employing lots of journalists ( and their communities ) seems a pretty smart move. I wonder out loud, if com

Im going to have to say your quoting that line a little out of context. When I first read the article, the time I got to "slow" I was wondering what I had just read. Yet the very next paragraph helps demystify the jargon. At that point, I r

Learning by mistakes is a good way to learn im sure of it. But this article on page 1 covers more about learning where you have a teacher who already knows the material, it would be far harder to use this failing technique if you are creati

There is a slight element of sour grapes in the undertone of many of these comments. "Its just php scripts", "I could knock that up in a weekend". These are pretty poor arguments. Not that many of you care but im slightly surprised at some
