I'm in a similar boat right now. I haven't pulled the trigger on anything but I'm taking a good look at Fonality ( http://pbxtra.fonality.com/products/standard ). Anyone else hear anything about it? Edit: Now looking at FreePBX.org / Asteri

A tip to anyone who hasn't treaded these waters before: Do not, under any circumstances, bring up 99 designs when speaking with a professional designer. I warned you! But seriously, most entries for logo contests on 99 designs were already

My honest opinion is that this is a more expensive version of SponsoredTweets (which won't fly because they have a mass of users and important value add features, which this is lacking) . Ad.ly also does this but I think they have a pretty

On one hand, Garmin probably got what they wanted. Moving a whole office from San Francisco to Kansas seems like a passive aggresive way of downsizing. On the other hand, they probably weren't exactly expecting this reaction. And I have a f

I recently read the book Groundswell and it had me putting in a lot of thought about the social aspects of e-commerce. I'd definitely recommend it. I've done some e-commerce consulting projects and in the end it always turns to a discussion

I was in the same boat. We continue to do consulting but have been able to have a couple people working on a side project. Basically, the profit from our clients is used on our own project. I wouldn't reject all incoming projects, but just

Do you have plans for the data? Are you going to give others access to it? I pitched in a little, until I couldn't take it any more :) A way of hiding/blocking an image while you answer might be helpful for this sort of thing.

Seriously? I think we're the one's making out on this deal. I get a lot of value out of these interviews and I know a lot of others do too. I want him to have access to more entrepreneurs and investors so I can learn something from them, an

I think what he's describing in the article is more of an art than a science. Also the standard color for democrats is blue (blue state, etc..) so making their part of the chart red wouldn't make sense when comparing them to republicans (tr

That should be fraud, the entire purpose was to mislead. I wonder who else has done this, or continues to do this. Seems like a major loophole for banks to exploit.

Good point, was at a loss for the right word when I commented. This kind of behavior by lawyers is just like patent trolling and I couldn't pinpoint a word for that. Maybe privacy trolling? The lawyers are the same ones that sued Facebook f

I think that's ambiguous enough that it's probably not infringing on their trademark. That doesn't prevent them from saying it does though. Disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer!

Another case of lawsuits stifling innovation. And I agree with one of the comments on that post - why doesn't Netflix have people opt-in to have their data anonymized and used for this purpose? Edit: replaced bureaucracy with lawsuits

Playing devil's advocate here, and I thought this was a good point from the thread last year: I am all for preserving HN's sanctity, and I agree with and appreciate most of the points you make. But your tone makes the whole thing sound alm

That book sounds fascinating. Politicians have such a manicured image that it can be hard to tell what they're really like. Even things that seem normal (going bowling, ordering food, having a beer) are designed to appeal to voters. Anyone

I'm just curious, is there a particular reason that you suggest another browser to people using IE? Other than your personal opinion? I don't really think that's adding anything, and if anything it will have people using IE bouncing without

Not fatal but it opened the door for everyone else. If everyone was happy with the new Windows Mobile proposed in this article and it had widespread adoption, would Apple have developed the iPhone? They might have, but it wouldn't have been
