I was thinking that too. $66/month is a bit steep for a 2 person team currently using their personal Dropboxes.

Agreed, thanks for pointing them out. I know the Tech.li team (and founder Ed Domain) very well and they are a prime example of the type of publication I'm referring to.

I agree with you and my company Entrepreneurs Unpluggd is working to increase the highlighting of entrepreneurs elsewhere (including Detroit - would love to get your thoughts on the scene there -> tim at entrepreneursunpluggd). Personal

I can't believe how accurately this post reflects my own thoughts on parenthood. He just put into words so clearly exactly what I've been thinking and how I've been feeling.

I noticed this too. I started to think of all the times I was mean to my dad or mom, or just an outright bad kid. Totally changes your perspective.

As an update, I disabled the Google Voice Sprint full integration because it was eating my texts (Google Voice would catch them but never forward them on to my phone, despite that option being enabled), as well as not notifying me of missed

You still need the Google Voice app to check (and be notified of) voicemails, right? Google Voice voicemails don't get sent to the native iPhone visual voicemail app, do they?

Timely article, as I recently switched to Sprint with an iPhone (last Sunday actually, after 4 hellish years with AT&T) and a few days ago realized what Arrington did - I could get full Google Voice without a new number! So far, it's be

Cool idea. Curious, how will it be different than Startup Weekend? How will you concentrate more on the finishing aspect of projects? Also, love that you're doing this in Holland! Great little town.

So you built it and then surveyed?

I'm curious. Out of the total amount of people you surveyed before building this, what percentage raised their hands and said they would use it?

If you don't NEED that big/expensive of a space, don't get it.

Agreed. I think the sad truth is the truly game changing startups doing real, practical work aren't "sexy".

I do think that's a valid concern. Whenever I recommend Rdio to people, I'm never sure how to say it. I usually say "R D O" but sometimes I think maybe it's "radio" or "Erdio".

I still have Skype 2.8 and refuse to update, because even before Microsoft got involved, the newer versions of Skype were so inconsistent in communicating with other versions of Skype. But lately, I've noticed Skype freezing on opening. It

Couldn't agree more. For the past year+, Firefox has been getting noticeably slower and slower, to the point that I would cringe when clicking that little fox planet and thinking of what I could do in the next 3 minutes while Firefox opene

"Making money is for squares. As long as you can line up that Series P round, the party's still on, man." What's sad is I think many entrepreneurs are taking this seriously. They think "starting a company" means raising a ton of money, wor

I think about this all time with my now 13 month old. He'll grow up picking content from our Roku connected TV. He won't rush home to catch a show at 4pm. He'll just pull it up at his convenience on Hulu. Heck, he'll expect YouTube to be

In my eyes, this is the biggest cost of commuting, especially you're driving. It used to take my wife anywhere from 1-3 hours on her return trip (depending on rain, snow, traffic, people looking at flashing lights, etc. - it is Chicago aft

Are we really congratulating a "company" that makes no revenue on raising money again? When will it stop?

"The start-up, which has no revenue to speak of yet and is still in invite-only mode, has become the latest hot start-up of late in Silicon Valley." Jesus Christ. Are we serious? Are we REALLY serious? I'm speechless.
