Looks nice! But I can't watch any of the videos because clicking on the play button (in the lightbox) closes the lightbox :-) I'm on Safari 5.1.3 on OS X.

Minutebox is trying to do something like that but their focus is not on programming at the moment.

I'm talking about quick jobs. Can you hire someone to help you with some Clojure or Ruby code just for an hour? It looks like it takes an hour just to post a job on elance.

Thanks Justin. You're probably already tired with comparisons to Zaarly and Taskrabbit, but it looks to me like you are focusing on building a really high quality version of the same idea. Talk about focus!

I'm blown by how basic the site looks right now. This attitude of launching something which probably doesn't even do much yet is really hard for me to digest. Also, Justin's comment on keeping features to a minimum is interesting. Everyone

We have two cats for whom we currently hire a local professional caretaker when we go away. We used to ask friends, but we didn't want to keep asking them again and again. A couple of them like doing it, but we still felt like we shouldn't

I've emailed Patrick a few times asking for help. He's always super nice and helpful. I had the pleasure of meeting him last year and he is a really down to earth geek.

There might be a simpler reason: most Foursquare links are not photos, just check-ins, which by themselves are no fun. The real dilemma is this: if Path A/B tested their current design against one similar to that of Foursquare, and the Four

My comparison was crude. I know there are finer nuances, such as BCC income probably being much more passive than HNM. I just don't think it is a particularly wise move when more attractive markets abound. The irony of that coming from th

Patrick, at the risk of sounding ungrateful to all your help, I'd like to point out that HNM's success is also a good counterpoint to the advice you give again and again - "Don't make stuff for 20-something Cauc(asian) dudes. It has no hope

You must talk to Paras Chopra of Visual Website Optimizer. He once built a platform for indie musicians ( http://kroomsa.com ) and he's based in Delhi too. From what I remember, it didn't really work out for him. He's written about it on hi

Assuming you are referring to graphic design and not product design, this is how I work with a graphic designer friend on all my apps. After many iterations, we've found the method that seems to work best between us is that I code up a func

It's hard to say which is a better strategy, but I would answer that by asking which one provides more value to your users. Are there specific problems with buying musical instruments that you are going to solve much better than existing st

There are some Mixergy interviews which should give you some good pointers. For example, this one - http://mixergy.com/trevor-ginn-interview/ Note the transcripts are free even for the paid interviews. Edit: I'm guessing you are aiming at
