Hell yeah. In my eyes, Andrew Warner is the same caliber of interviewer as Charlie Rose. He's a natural and was born to do it. This results in very thorough interviews that provide actionable tips that you can think about and apply to aspe

There are definitely better ways to showcase photography these days that allow cross-device compatibility. Allie Siarto and Loudpixel have a great Wordpress theme product that derived from and is targeted to that very need: Whitespace http

I'm sorry but this isn't a startup or a business (at least not yet). It's a collection of web properties including a blog, a Twitter account, etc. What exactly is the benefit in launching a "startup" in 4 hours anyway?

They look so desperate right now on their Twitter feed, furiously tweeting everybody to let them know they're once again a "cool kid". I wouldn't put it past them to support SOPA once enough people transfer back/keep their business with the

Congrats Leo! I'm generally not an advocate for funding, but in this instance, I can see the advantages of a spurt of accelerated growth for you. Hope to get you or Joel on for a follow up interview when you guys have a spare moment!

The landing page design is gorgeous. But really - would YOU ever use this app in the intended social setting? The horse is getting beaten to death already, but the last thing people out drinking want to do is log their drinks in their phone
