Initially, I was shocked that they would post the stolen information. Eventually I realized that this is going to be publicly available regardless of whether Techcrunch posts it or not. The information would be released elsewhere. As a news

Just showed this to a math PhD grad student. Her eyes immediately lit up. She instantly determined that who ever made this, is in fact a genius. Great idea and great implementation. I have seen so much LaTeX frustration. This will definitel

Looks great for an alpha. Some suggestions: 1. Improve the interface and make it clear how to use the app. The language isn't clear to me, such as the difference between a 'tracker' and an 'area'. 2. Make it so I can enter a days worth of d

Surprised that Zeo wasn't mentioned in the article. The startup just launched their product 2 weeks ago. It helps track your sleep patterns using a head band that reads brain activity. The software analyzes this information to help improve

Sort of but not exactly. Meeting your neighbors can only go so far. I am connected to a co-housing community in my city. There is a street of houses with their backs joined. They removed the fences separating their backyards; creating an en

The search functionality needs to be on the homepage, so I can immediately see the benefits of your product. Also, I think you should be marketing the search functionality and not the button. Make it easy to find a politician's information

Not sure this is the best way to unclog the twitter feed. Something like a group in Tweetdeck would work really well to solve that problem. Though, maybe you can do some neat things with this idea. First thing that is apparent to me is that

I talked to a bee keeper the other day about CCD. Apparently, they have facilities that you can bring the hive to that will take care of killing the colony. They then use gamma rays to "clean" the hive. I didn't ask where these locations we

The article didn't include many of the satellite images that were mentioned. Here is a pdf of the images with some discussion. http://belgingur.is/nmm2008/wp-content/uploads/utdraettir/go...

Good to see someone else with an interest in Miller. I just started reading Plexus the other day. Did you read the Tropic books as well?

I think that the Ask YC Archive does a good job at this. Too bad it isn't constantly on the main page. http://www.gabrielweinberg.com/startupswiki/Ask_YC_Archive

I disagree. I think this is very typical. This is Google's largest acquisition and one of the the few that isn't a startup. When a company does an acquisition of this size there is bound to be numerous redundancies, specifically in the HR d

I truly think that Microsoft knows their market. Web applications are great for the general consumer market, but not for the corporate market. I don't think corporations want their confidential documents directly accessible to another corpo

Thanks Xobni. I always felt outlook was broken. I hated using it. The search is terrible and finding email address and phone numbers is a pain. Being that I am forced to use outlook at work, I was really excited to try out Xobni. I installe

The article did not go into a lot of detail about how the development of the geologic timescale contributed to the science of geology. One of the most important contributions of the timescale was giving scientists a framework to correlate g

NetApp is against the wall. They are quickly losing market share in midrange storage. Their stock is falling. This is merely a ploy to bring them some press. Maybe there will be a settlement in their favor. Though, the victory would be bad

The semantic web platform is still in its infancy. My cofounder is developing semantic web applications for a university's engineering department. They want to use it to catalog engineering parts and allow for an algorithm to determine the
