Does anyone have any background on who this "Donna Kline" is? Her brief bio paints her as a 'reporter', but her blog backlog looks like a constant and consistent attack against Facebook. I don't want to suggest that she is perhaps being pai

Many of the Flippa niche content sites (rather than 'service' based sites) are evaluated not just on traffic numbers, but on the product of traffic and topic-based AdWord CPC values, e.g. the top ones being: http://www.wordstream.com/blog

I had the fortune of visiting the O'Reilly offices in Sebastopol a few weeks ago (thanks Mary!), and this gracious attitude permeates the building. It may be one of the happiest, friendliest offices I've had the fortune of visiting. Plus, t

Related to that, I have a question that's been bugging me: If the application is assessed primarily on the founders, is it really worth failed applicants applying again? Speaking as someone who has applied (and failed, with cause!) twice re

For those who didn't spot it, I assume that the title of the post is a take on the quote attributed to Hemingway, "Write drunk; edit sober."

Mine is a similar story; spent 10 years building a web agency in the UK, burnt out, then went traveling for a year and wrote a Web App book - http://www.fivesimplesteps.com/products/web-app-success - during the process. I wrote a little a

If anyone has any questions, I'm here to answer them. The book basically took 18 months to write (on and off), and I wrote most of it while traveling around the world for a year.

Dropping out of the organic results sounds like a result of the Panda update ( http://searchengineland.com/official-google-panda-2-3-update... ) My best guess is that you'll need to include some additional 'unique content' on the site to ge

Are you asking for feedback on the app idea or the landing page? Quick comments on the landing page: in terms of SEO, it needs a lot of work. Your page title doesn't include any relevant keywords, and there is zero indexable content on the
