In my experience, shareware tends to get cracked -pretty- fast. Is your target audience big enough so that a few people downloading the pirated version won't hurt you?

Shouldn't 'Learn more' be... on the landing page? Also, you should try to be a bit more formal, right? :D

I read the first paragraph and someone was talking about moguls needing a URL shortener or something. I scrolled the rest still not understanding. :-(

"But, until we get a voice, a way to communicate back, Word Lens is little more than an amazing party trick." WTF? A party trick? Okay sorry for the outburst there mate, why don't you make something better?

I just started using TeamBox. It's awesome! It's free for the features I need, and if things start getting over the top, I can upgrade my account for something like $12 and get more features. I tried basecamp and failed.

I really liked the simplicity of the landing page, and especially liked the 'Example' flight-code, so I could search. The page it bought me to wasn't as good in my opinion - you've gone from simple to complex very quickly. Google Earth plug

Why has nobody mentioned the author Ben Bova? Especially the Astroid Wars trilogy. Anything by Stephen Baxter, Arthur C. Clarke, and Isaac Asimov is a must read!

I've had some unfortunate things happen to me, in turn which gave me extreme depression and PTSD. What I did was pretty simple... I did everything I could do to have a good nights sleep. If that meant exercise, better food etc, I did it. No

I believe you should be more considerate. I'm offended you want to get rid of the Christmas Spirit. If you don't like something that's obviously temporary, get over it.

I -was- in the same boat. I've been programming, and generally mucking about doing constructive stuff since I was 12. When I went through by degree, I got so bored with everything. The way things were done, the people etc. I really though

I'm starting to realise this point. :-( I'm at the moment developing on an idea that I've had for a startup, but New Zealand isn't known for its VCs... I'm kind of lost in that department.

New Zealand desperately needs -something- good. For example, there's a student job search site (only for students) with around 2 pages full of awesome freelancer jobs (with good pay) yet I cannot sign up/get in contact with the submitters (

Then again, does anybody really have any privacy these days, compared with 50 years ago? All it takes is one person who knows what they're doing to find out a -LOT- about you.

It's a nice idea. Perhaps though, you could have a listing of startups who have used your service. For example, the other day I was looking to see if there's any new startups in my city (I'm in New Zealand). Sadly, I couldn't find much, nor
