Lol. When I landed on the home page, my first thought was "Why did this guy post a link to a site that hasn't launched yet?" I thought it was one of those parking pages chock full of ads. You really might want to change the design a bit...

Google isn't going to get the spectrum! Kevin Martin (FCC Chairman) crafted the auction rules in such a way that it isn't attractive for Google or any other third party to bid, plus the incumbents have so much power in D.C. already. Sure, t

Aaron's a great guy, you guys should also check out the NYT article about him: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/09/01/technology/01facebook.html... It's refreshing to see someone NOT jump at the chance to sue FB, and arguably his case would be

Our team is just two guys. My co-founder is a rockstar hacker. I wouldn't call myself a rockstar designer, but I'm taking care of all that stuff (graphic design, UI, copywriting, etc.) as well as marketing. I've always liked designing thing

Sacramento is relatively close, but if you really want to be involved in the startup community, San Francisco is a much better choice. Sacramento is far enough away to make you think twice about attending all the cool events that happen i
