yeah facebook's attempt at blocking such an initiative is, at least to me, over stepping into my property rights... thus i will think to myself before spending much more time on their building my social connections ...

There has been many requests for this feature; they've heard the knock.. but aren't answering (probably a good reason). - until then perhaps SearchYC.com should be put on the FAQ page for this site,

If you need funding is the most important question and if so then you might need the valley if not; bootstrapping is always good ... (its always best if you let the investors find you) you should read the boot strapp-ers bible ... http://w

(of course I haven't given up on the opposite sex) I'm waiting on a soul mate (aren't we all) she of course would have to have the same values I try for -money + integrity + honesty + transparency. Finding that is probably like hitting the

You've got to appreciate a company that constantly produces free services that don't particularly generate revenue. I think the best way to describe this is a wiki for everything html/css/javascript ... Hope it grows and gets embraced

I think its a little Ego-heavy for you to think companies should care about your .00000000001% of the internet traffic. Hitwise already gives ISP data about searches being conducted. - just saying not a business, at least not in my mind.

great now you can "View content space-tially organized in a infinite canvas paradigm" also "move thru content in a orgranic fashion" Great! now if only we could drop the bull shit terminology. and don't forget their "envisioning team" (chow

Google: ' google authentication api' returns AuthForWebApps http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/AuthForWebApps.htm... Seems really cool, to be honest adding this to most apps would increase signups significantly... I think your app

yeah when they aren't connected to actual load progress it sucks. The concept still works (hold the users attention just a tad longer...) but I think if its just a looping character it should be a spinning wheel etc.. then the user knows to

I've always thought about dropping out of the system; I think it parallels with the "I could rob this bank"thought that every man has. My favorite articles are below http://www.innerexplorations.com/catsimple/2.htm (simple living) http:

I think fast loading supersedes any decoration of this sort; however if you can compress your images and use CSS to make a page look good why not..

I think apple has a great lead and will for sometime because the same reason Google does. - they were first to market with an "ah-ha" Idea; when google search worked it was an "ah-ha" for many people and most stuck around - today you see go

seems cool; I like the idea of having code I can copy and paste and "magically" features appear on my site. The problem is most of the time "magic" doesn't work out.

the minimum budget is whatever you can afford... The standard (2) options are search engines and their paid advertising platform. The "2.0" option is social media. Option (1) Search Engines have SEO done on your site; any traffic you do
