   How long is a piece of string? :) [IMHO, it is the hackers who keep the world/universe going, because they are the ones who cause chaos/disruption (in absence of which, the 3rd law of thermodynamics would fail, causing the universe to implo

    Thanks for the feedback. Graphics design is not an area of primary strength or interest for us. Perhaps, you'd like to contribute an alternative logo?

    Just ran a scan - sleek UI :) I can see a freemium business model working on this with some twists here and there. Will look at the results of my scan closely (it showed up some errors which should not be there) and then report the specific

    I think you just may have a great possible opportunity staring you in the face. At the minimum, don't just wash it off. > Have you heard of startups pivoting and making their internal side tools into their main business? Even if it may

    I remember reading a similar thread here in the last couple of weeks or so. Perhaps, someone (more proficient than me) could dig it out and post it here as a reference?

    Agreed. I've always been 'rolling my own', even before I stopped coding. Now, things like thinking up a new app, spec-ing out the UI/UX, iterating, marketing and promotion etc. also provide a lot of thrill but all the same, the ghost of 'ha
