It's always tricky to understand the intersection between legitimate use, promotion via social media of interesting stuff, and abuse. Eventually you could go down the path of wikipedia, which has only 4000 active contributors left and dropp

It's not quite accurate. As far as i know, two of the people listed as having left haven't (yet) and others who did leave aren't listed. https://twitter.com/jkalucki/status/104452365515628544 Of folks who were there at 2007, about one to

So perhaps it was me, and other folks not noticing. It didn't hit the tech blogs much. The links are great, i added an update at the bottom with them.

Yeah, i wanted to talk about race and class, looking at who uses them. I find it ironic that folks were calling me racist (i think they meant classist). I in fact chose the nick, rabble, in part because i identify with the unwashed masses.

I'm in Colombia this week to give a talk, and I was asking people about their phones. Turns out that if you've got lots of money to spend on your phone, you get an iPhone, if you've got some money, you get an android, and if you're poor or

I'm not sure it translates. I've got a place, listed on AirBnB which is almost always available for rent. It's a vacation home. http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/59577 We've had 458 page views and made $262. Hardly astonishing. We do rent it lo

I hadn't noticed the one before. It's tricky the way products and blog posts get mixed together in HN. The former should have a longer lifetime of being interesting. Also i assumed that it hadn't been posted because HN didn't kick it back.

Yep, but piepdx has been submitted, this page is specifically to apply for this funding cycle. They extended the deadline because google jumped on board with their backing.

Betable got the UK license and runs everything through UK servers. Getting a license to do this legally cost a bundle. That's why there's the rev split as it is.

Thank god Uruguay's not Argentina. This article is why i've refused to open up an office on the other side of the river. Argentina's an amazing country where just about every institution in society is in some sort chaotic collapse.

There's another part of the story which is left out. Only women get the code. At first it wasn't this way, but eventually they discovered that by only giving the code to women, it kept the space much safer for everybody. Of course some wome

It seems that this rule only applies on B2C sales. You only need to figure out what to do if your end use is a consumer, not a company.

There's a ton written about running a startup, but there is amazingly little written about doing a professional services design / development firm. Anybody know of good sources for running a good services firm?

I think it's useful to see and read this story. It goes in to how tough a real pivot can be. Twitter grew out of Odeo, but the process by which it happened was a complicated mess. I'm glad that Noah Glass is finally getting included in the

So if we edited late, and got a rejection letter, then we were reviewed and rejected. This is only for folks who did NOT get a rejection letter, right?

It's this year's letter, presumably it's the same as they've used in the past.

Do you want to be doing this? If so, don't sell. If you're happy somebody else doing what ever they want with it and don't want do deal with it? Don't sell.

I think there are only three people left of the founding team who are employees, @biz, @crystal (support), and @jeremy (ops). The oldest dev is @bs, but very early on, but wasn't around when twitter was created. Twitter's not the company it
