I think this could actually have utility in a business setting: many folks doing presentations, newsletters, etc... don't have image software (or the know-how) to create this kind of effect.

Sacha Greif recently shared his thoughts on pricing ebooks in this podcast interview. There have been a few high-profile designers and developers releasing ebooks, and ebook packages (PDF + videos + resources). The most recent example was N

Is this your only product? Or do you have multiple streams of revenue? (BTW: is your site ad supported, or membership supported?)

Thanks. I agree: it seems like blocking out a specific amount of time, and focusing during that time, is key. I'm a big fan of Startups for the Rest of Us. They answered one of my questions on episode 111.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience. 3 kids (including twins!) wow. I especially appreciate your comments on "what worked". I've been listening to Quit since episode #1; loving it.

Are you saying I should "spec out the HN demographic" in terms of the questions I ask? (as in this one) ;)

That's great! Does your product provide full-time or part-time income? How many hours a week do you dedicate to it?

Ask HN: Is it realistic to launch a product if you have young kids?

The most meaningful lesson for me was the idea of not starting with an idea. Going to people first, and finding their pain, seems so straightforward, and yet America seems addicted to building businesses that come from ideas.

Product People has two episodes with Patio11. Part 1 has his complete back-story: everything from how he learned to program with graph paper to how he built his first product business with $60. http://productpeople.tv/2012/12/19/patio11-p

I didn't post this to HN, but I'm one of the hosts. Thanks for the encouragement.

Wow. I was wondering why there was a big spike in traffic today. ;) Thanks for the post!

In this post I reminisce about my BBS days: when I was 13 I was asked to co-SysOp a local bulletin board. I recently found my journal, where I mentioned growing our user base from 35 to 236. It made me laugh, because I immediately thought:

Likewise: when I was debating buying a Macbook Air and a Macbook Pro 13" with Retina. To me, the higher resolution display wasn't worth it.

Odd, I haven't really felt a difference between my iPad Mini and my iPhone 4. I definitely don't have perfect eyes; I wonder if that's a factor.

I should have mentioned in the post that I do have an iPhone 4 (with Retina). I regularly switch between that, an iPod touch, an iPad Mini, and 1st gen iPad. For me Retina feels "brighter and more crisp", but it does feel like "it's nice, b
