   This has side effects. In my case I was becoming more and more lazy and never bothered thinking about the problem properly and taking a chance at coming up with a solution. I became expert at search and finding solutions. Ex search: 'displa

   I tried using Zaarly when I was in LA and loved it. But after moving to NYC, realized TaskRabbit was more popular and had to switch. I always thought there was enough room for both (zaarly and taskrabbit) to survive... guess I was wrong. Be

   We just went live in the App Store. We also have a complimenting mobile web app when you use your smartphone to access the site. We (2 iOS devs) rolled the app/site in 6 months working nights and weekends while keeping our day jobs. Looking

   I've been using Git from command line with my visual studio projects already. Integration with TFS is a welcome change. Although I wonder how much effort Microsoft has to go through to change TFS's underlying SVN architecture to support Git

    I wish there could be filters. I could sort by city, type of job, pay etc. But a good start.

    I would say hang out with other hackers at meetups. You just dont wanna join a startup based on their ideas or skills. You wanna make sure its a good fit for you and the team you join. Hang out with people, hack with them at hackathons, mee

    Its not only Hotel Tonight that does that, even priceline's negotiator, hotwire's hot deals and travelocity's last minute discounts. It wasn't something new that HotelTonight tried, but by creating an app for a narrow vertical 'discount roo

    Thanks for those links... I should have guessed that people may have asked that before. To answer your question on why I want to know, basically to research what is the best way for people to check-in at a place (kinda like foursquare) usin

    I agree with other commenters here. But regarding PC being required for creators to do their job will also go down as technology progresses. It wont be too long until developers and designers will hook up their tablets to external screens a

    I find airfarewatchdog.com much better. Usually get alerts and able to find deal price as quoted. If you have flexibility in dates, these services are pretty good.

    This is exciting and headed in the right direction. I am definitely going to use this and provide a feedback. One of the things I am pressing on in 2013 is going paperless as much as possible. I really liked their product video. Does anybod

    If it's almost complete, then finish it. Load it on your tablet and start marketing yourself. Talk to local restaurants and ask then to try it out on 1 or 2 devices. Give it off for free and just collect feedback. It is a decent idea and ha

    I can imagine why it is so hard to roll back to your old account once you leave a team. It might be best for companies to advise their employees to create separate dropbox account before joining a team.

    This is indeed a hard problem to solve. Glad to see someone attempting it. I think partnering with one of the major insurance providers should help kick-off the product at great scale and learn a lot. All the best!

    I charge $150-$200/hr in NYC (4 years experience). My clients find value in me. There are many developers that charge $50 - $100 but end up taking 2x time to get the product out. Lately I've noticed there isn't much iOS work out there. Cons
