thanks for clearing that up. I wish I could try but no windows machines. I think type of site would actually be good for like non computer savy, I think a simple redesign could convey this message better.

i understand the utility of their application, but I see this as worse than a seasonal type application. I mean how often do we need to reinstall a lot of software at one time. Also I saw spotify on the list.. might cause some confusion

one suggestion is to use some sort of ad platform, for your service I would just suggest reddit, google and bing.. try to cheaply target certain niches, with customized ads. That way if you see out of the many campaigns you will be creatin

the main reason is mobile.. are you seriously telling me you are carrying that ipad with you everywhere. Shopping, going out to eat, driving in the car.. the iphone mobile web, maps, email is awesome. I won't be upgrading because I'm gett

when you start having to carry around the ipad and a keyboard.. whats the difference between that and a netbook now.. where you will have a much easier time running applications.. example most of us would probably like a browser and ide at

Strange no matter what browser I try to copy and paste, can't seem to see this happening. Any ideas as to why I'm unable to see this script.. I guess its a good thing I'm not effected by it, but out of curiosity would like to see.

as a programmer.. I really suck at css and layout. Working on projects as a single programmer (startup type projects) I can't go out and hire a css guy and web design person. For me something like this is a no brainer, instead spending ti

well the main reason I wouldn't use JRuby is because .. by programming in just Ruby, you get benefit of all the c extensions that you aren't able to use in JRuby and not sure about rails support on jruby. I would just use it without jvm. T

another groovy on grails fan here... I wish more people would give it a try.. its surprisingly expressive like ruby or python , scales with the JVM, backing of all currently java libs, and great web framework like rails.

fool me once, shame on you.. fool me twice, shame on me. By now we should realize the pattern with twitter is that any company that adds real value to twitter, they are more than willing to take the idea, and build a competing service. Se

the colors of the close, minimize and expand aren't correct, so not entirely accurate. Still awesome

both are hard.. and both are full time gigs. When you're not programming, you have to some how figure out how to find customers in consulting. Then trying to program for your clients, and then programming a startup. almost impossible.

I think we are all missing the point, that its <b> Pac-Man's 30th anniversary </b>. But yes the playable logo, just adds to the awesomeness

are you manually testing, on your production environments ?

by minalecs 16y ago
I seriously would like more people to explain their experience if they tried this, but unit test and integration tests are no substitute for QA. Especially for a young startup trying to get traction, I seriously can't see how this is benef

This looks like a solid project. Just signed up.. looking forward to using it.

question to HN ? does anyone use blippy ?

good luck, and let us know of the progress of your project. I did the samething as you and so far so good.

Not sure if you are asking to review your idea, but its sort of a cool utility. Anyways, in your case, I would use Examples , Guides & FAQ , and Login. In your case I would keep it simple, because overall your product looks a little o

great analogy. gabe weinberg is absolutely correct. Being a tech person, I can build sites quickly and put them out there... but the real difference between a startup/entrepreneur and just a hacker is what you do after the site is released

so .. did you go back to engine yard ?

by minalecs 16y ago
after watching the video and clicking the links, im still confused as to what this is ? As a side note, it would be great if this were a service that could look at my website, and give me ux improvement suggestions.

Wondering ? has anyone migrated from engine yard to heroku or vice versa, and reasoning. I've read several reasons on why one is better than the other, but just wondering what some of the users experiences are
