Great service, I checked the demo and it worked well. My question is this, what is your intended market? The only reason I see myself using this is if I where to die soon, and wanted kids to still have stories read by me, but I don't know i

For this specific situation it is good to address the issue. However, you need to take ownership. This situation does depend on you. Getting channels is your problem. The best way to address the issue is to work on the product. This

Idea works well for subscription type payments. I don't know if it works that well for one-time software sales, though. I'm making a mac application. Most likely I will be charging $50 for this application. It looks like my current desig

I have a confession, I was a little tight for cash when I got my google wave invite. I invited two friends then noticed what they where going for on ebay. I sold 6 invites at $25 a piece. I listed them at 9:00 AM EST and they all sold in

I don't know if it really was about becoming first. I think Pownce just wasn't something that users really wanted. I think this backs up YC's idea of focussing on the product user's feedback. I think no amount of marketing seen here can fi

Yes, I agree with you here, and I agree with him. When the term web 2.0 came out I hated it. It was just a description for what I was already doing. Similarly I didn't like the term cloud computing at first. However the thing I have missed

I feel very similar. I go to college at the University of Kentucky. It is very rare that my fellow CS majors are on the same page as me. So many of them just want to get a job after college and do not have the same passion I have for wri

Thanks a lot, with dcurtis calling it red, I was about to go fiddle with some color settings.

Maybe we should wait 16 more days before we start listening to dcurtis. Seriously though, I am confused why everyone calls the dot red... I felt pretty strongly that it is orange, but now that dcurtis backs it up... I don't know what to do.

I really think there is some room here for blogs and news sites to provide their own short urls that people can use to link to them. They might be able to reap the benefits of a higher page rank. Another good side affect is that urls might
