This looks really promising and I think I'll give it a try, once there is something to buy... The multitasking looks really good, it is an interesting way to solve this problem. If their implementation is as good as it is presented, we'll s

This is interesting, are there command lie tools for tracking your investments and savings? I'm being a bit lazy here as I haven't looked for them myself, but I've never been happy with the GUI applications for such tasks.

There are a number of startup idea here, the most apparent of which is just a market (or portal) for your local market. If you've built your market you can then take the same approach and software a couple hundred miles down the road and st

Of course they do. What exactly is the point of this? The organization is against piracy (as are many many private individuals), but as they say an organization is made of people... Is the point to prove hypocrisy? As if we needed any furth

A recommendation that I would add, make it so that your starred folder DOES push to your phone. That way you have access to that email even if you don't have an internet connection.

Isn't this the kind of comment discussed directly in the post? Perhaps I'm feed the trolls, but honestly, knock it off unless you have something useful to add.

Doesn't this seem like a maintainability nightmare? I can see a small change in rendering that causes number portions of a website to break in difficult to diagnose ways. Clicking any of the HTML/CSS links under any of the icons just doesn'

Worth noting that the porous, "paper", type masks that you sometimes see people wearing (being in Tokyo right now I'm understating their prevalence), are entirely worthless for defending against viruses. They're too small for those masks to

Solvitur ambulando http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvitur_ambulando I don't know latin, but I'm assuming ambulare is an infinitive where adding 'ando' (if this is like Spanish) is equivalent to 'ing'. edit: thanks for sharing the saying, I

I'm ostensibly responding to everyone here that posted a comment similar to your own. I've been traveling for 8 months now, nearly 6 of which were through a half dozen in South America, including the poorest, Bolivia. The Internet and compu

It was amazing, though the cost is nothing to scoff at. If you've got the spare cash it is absolutely worth it. I just wrote up our experience yesterday. http://orofino.me/antarctica-the-genesis-2/

Like the article. Some excellent advice however, I'd like to add a couple things. First, some background - my wife and I have been on the road for 6 months through South America and splurged on a trip to Antarctica. We're moving to Europe t

We worked for three years out of college to pay off school loans, get established (and then sell everything), and save 60k for our trip.

Regarding your issues, I have issues (well, issue): Travel in South America does not require visas for an American. It is very easy to travel here, we've had no problem for the last 6 months. Bolivia charges a reciprocity fee upon entry for

I agree that there is such a thing a too small, something the backpacker community seems to eschew [see Tynan article above]. We've been travelling for 6 months with 40L packs, we're consistently wishing they were about 5-10L larger. Howeve

Question: Why does it have to be a startup's innovation? Entire applications now live inside websites. Perhaps you view that as 'lock in', however I can get all of mail out of gmail or dropbox. The bloat of MS Office is certainly proof that

This is an interesting idea. I have a wordpress blog and would be very interested to switch to static. However, my wife uses the blog and really needs something more WYSIWYG than markdown. Be sure to share when you've finished.

I don't understand you. You're here, on a board that regularly discusses, touts, and builds the bleeding edge, but here you are screaming form the rooftops that you hate change... Tablets are over-hyped like PCs were over-hyped in the 90s.

I find this interesting, because as some have pointed out here, there is a LOT of noise on HN. There's a simple fix for this though, don't click on the posts. I went for a couple months without checking HN and to be honest I felt like I was

The best bank for this is Capital One. We signed up for cards (both debit and CC) for our overseas travel only. We haven't had them charge us a single time to date.

Happily, after traveling for 5 months now in South America, I can report that you do NOT have to worry about this here. I've yet to see anything at all like this and have used ATMs in 6 countries and 37 cities. Europe? We'll find out in a m

filtering on a particular letter would be good as well, using a 'q' without a 'u' is a pain, but none of the words suggested have the q used because the words are too short.
