Thanks I actually just shot off an email to someone I met there. Totally forgot I had an active username on GFY.

Seconded. I was just asked to project manage a porn affiliate site revamp. They were making $50k+/mo last year, but the niche is so narrow and well, frankly disgusting, that I'm having trouble getting any designer to commit.

Aaand I think we (and techcrunch coverage) just killed your site, hehe. Really slow right now.

Wouldn't iCloud already cover this? I'm also thinking the "I"m getting arrested" app for android would operate similarly.

Spot on. >So, for smart people, the internet was like the jump from hand copied manuscripts to the printing press. It really boosted the efficiency of something we were already doing. For stupid, the internet was like the discovery of f

That was awesome. A couple of times there I thought to myself, "he nailed it", but then you went and made it ever better. This is why I will always have a healthy respect for good designers and programmers. It's never done until it's perf

Also out of curiousity, did your 200k come from facebook ads or from your facebook community (fanpage)? I would think that in the apparel business future engagement would be relevant, ie seasonal lines, sales, etc.

Sorry, I understood your op as you making the point that people will still use Facebook on the desktop. I was providing the counterpoint that it is looking more and more like mobile is the future. Also, I believe stats will show that engag

Ad serving (at least the monetizing part) isn't always about how you can make a user concentrate on an ad. How many free iOS games out there serve up unobtrusive ads that you sometimes even stop noticing?

Same here . I'm a competitive shooter and I've travelled internationally with live ammo lost in my bag that I found after unpacking. Total facepalm moment. It wasn't much, 5-6 rounds but I'm sure enough to get me in heaps of trouble had it

There might be a little confusion with semantics here. I don't believe any of us can argue that the US has't led MOST of the world in innovations that are adopted on a large scale. There is a difference between being innovative and actuall

Ran across this link. It doesn't seem to be available in the US but it's still interesting. Quoted "Buying the Peel 520 plus a 32 GB Ipod Touch would save you roughly 50% than buying a 16GB iPhone 4. Thus, you even get twice the capacity th

I'm still a bit hazy on how to define 'social mobile', can you explain just a tad more? Also, so you have ideas, but no concrete product yet, what is the technical co-f going to be working on? Funny, because I just shot a fellow HN'er an em

I think Facebook's way past being the 'new' thing. People are finding a use for it beyond 'old acquaintances becoming newly visible". You have the average user who uses it to keep in touch with friends, but you also have a growing number o

Wait, let me get this straight. $2B in revenue is not 'sizeable' ?

While I'm sure it's a factor, I'm not convinced that Facebook's growth needs involve having to increase their userbase in that manner. There are still many ways to monetize the existing one since I don't believe they've done that very effi
