"The adult organ has 100 billion liver cells," Baptista says. "The number we seeded is 100 million. We are quite far away from required number. But our aim is to reconstitute only 30% of the full-size adult liver, because that is the bare

I'm sure any pre-IPO stock issued to their employees, while not being a really rewarding thing right now, is going to pay off big in a relatively short timeframe... see: http://techcrunch.com/2010/09/01/google-making-extraordinary...

The article doesn't say much as to the concessions on either side to push this deal though... I wonder if Verizon will have more control of the handset than AT&T did and be able to pre-load it with all of their 'V' branded software.

I'm guessing that Ticketmaster is provided most of the information they have, since they sell the tickets themselves... And I wouldn't be surprised if StubHub crowdsourced a lot of their stuff (people want to sell tickets, they'll try to po

Are there any problems with standing in a stationary position for prolonged periods with no movement? I would think that this might not be good for you either, though I could be wrong.

I bet using something like a treadmill desk would help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPjN07JyVjo&feature=playe... They say it works in the video for doing things like e-mail and phone calls... maybe it would work for things that req

Not to knock your website at all, I think it is really well designed, neat and I think that affordable quality logo design is a very important service that many people need and do not know where to turn for help. Unless you are outsourcing

I actually recently had a talk with my parents about just that; how, unlike years ago, computers have gotten better to the point where nothing they can do will 'break' them, so they should feel free to click around and try to figure out wha

I wish I could wrap my head around the size of the subset in relation to the larger set of users of the internet. I think that those are able to accomplish this have a huge leg up in product design, and this ability is something that is inc

Great article. The cover reminds me last summer when one of my friends handed me an INC magazine and said "hey you should really check this out, it sounds like something you'd like." I was so busy with whatever I was working on at the time

No, I clearly haven't. The comment was meant to be tongue-in-cheek but I guess it didn't come across that way. I guess what I was getting at is that no other browser has websites dedicated to its demise, logging the number of hours lost, or

If only showing something like this to the IE dev team would make them feel guilty enough to finally give up on their failed attempt to make a browser that works and put their development skills to work for something more useful. sigh

It'd be interesting if someone took studies on the health benefits to each of these categories and calculated both the direct and indirect costs of belonging to each of these groups. Although it would be more controversial since the number

Digg will generate about $15 million in revenue this year and still operates at a loss Maybe my perception of the costs associated with running a high traffic such as this are way off, but doesn't it seem like $15m in revenues should be a

It seems that this is just a PR move by Facebook... that will hopefully be equally as misunderstood by the media and general public as the original problem is in itself. I don't see how the sharing of UID's is any different/worse than cooki

I’ve also come to loathe this mentality, at times. It’s the same mentality where someone whips up a two-page website and asks people to “review their startup!” I think startup is a phrase that’s been abused. You’ve made a project, or a mas
