The police headed to Hogan's parents' house, also in Redwood City, and were let in by Hogan’s father. They found Brian Hogan sitting on his bed with his girlfriend. When the cops told Hogan that removing evidence implied 'consciousness of

I wish you guys had mentioned this yesterday, we could have planned ahead a bit. Pretty much stuck in Marin for the rest of the day.

Wow, how did you put that together? I'm impressed. The domain was not really kosher for obvious reasons, nor was our derivative site design. Google eventually asked us for the domain. The idea is still going at http://MysterySeeker.com

Please don't use News.YC to ask YC questions. If you have a question, send it to info@ycombinator.com.

What the fuck is up with the downvote mob on HN lately? Feel free to downvote posts that are malicious or flat out wrong but why vote down genuine conversation and responses? Sheesh.

Well, they gradually gained the public trust in the financial sector. Then they proceeded to threaten the country with financial and economic ruin if massive amounts of publics funds weren't transferred to them.

Very apt point. Twitter is much more of a "social news site lite" than a social network.
