Great website. Can't be viewed in landscape mode on android. The socks and twitter link obscure the text. At first I thought that was part of the joke. Whatever. Gave me a laugh this morning and that is worth its weight in gold.

Thank you for posting this. I was busy this weekend sketching out the beginnings of something similar and cataloging which museums where nearby which I could entice with "my" idea. Time to change direction.

Research a loss leader? That's sort of true but there are already a couple of sites which are doing just that and charging for it: www.morningstar.com, www.fool.com and www.quantumonline.

I found this article to be interesting reading coming from the side of someone who can't invest in the same manner of Yuri. However, what wasn't said is that angles will just have to look elsewhere to find the gems that YC passed over. Pe

Attention entrepreneurs, newspapers need a paywall provider like described in the article. What a wonderful business opportunity for a few years before they all go through bankruptcy.

Yeah, I was reading that going "Scala, Scala, Scala, dynamic typing? #$(^(*@)#$" I'm pretty sure that the NBL will continue to be whatever large and influential organization wants it to be.

You're spot on about commodity ETFs. They are required to buy at a certain time and sell at another time. Actually they're windows but they're well published. As you might be able to guess traders have had a field day with these funds.

Their last pricing strategy failed horribly because it was too expensive. I hope they're just searching for a price point rather than hiding their fees. Anyone in contact with them about pricing?

I disable any add-on for any browser I currently have that I did not expressedly install myself. That being said I've expected this kind of behavior and malpractice from Microsoft not Skype. Terrible shame, too.

Actually if it becomes unprofitable then there will be little incentive to invest in it and it will languish for years. I'm all for net neutrality but I'm also for corporate profitability. If not for the high margins FIOS and the like bri

I think this is the best thing that could happen iff a group of lawyers backs up the professors all the way up to the Supreme Court. And of course, they win. I don't think any career politician will ever reverse course on the DMCA. They

Ah yes, the holy trail of investments. This one, we swear, won't go down! Really, look at all the reasons. Just like housing. It's not like their banks have billions of yuan in loans to companies or government investment vehicles which

Martin Odersky is a God amongst men. Yes, he has a hoard of people supporting and contributing ideas but... wow, that's all I can say. It's great to hear the why of things rather than just reading the way of things. Thanks for posting th

I've tried very hard not to be one of those people on that list. For a while I was the first, feeling completely helpless to change anything. Then someone within the company helped change some of that for me. Now I've matured to the poin

I believe that EA only publishes Angry Birds and does not own it as the article states. How that effects the revenue stream is beyond me.

Surprisingly, or maybe not surprisingly, I had never heard of the Atlantic until I started seeing article's of it linked all over the place in the blogo-sphere. Seems to me that this common sense theme perhaps is permeating to the marketin

You know, just because that's the way it's been done forever does not make it right. The lady next to my cube has a sign about tradition, which is what the bad flying experience has become in America: http://www.despair.com/tradition.html

No I won't. In the future I'll live in a normal house but I'll read about these little houses. I might even be inclined to purchase one and put it on a lake somewhere for fishing trips or by a beach for surfing trips but live in it full t
