Posting for a friend who wishes to remain anonymous: I'm a mechanical engineering by education and one thing I have noticed is there are no such options available for mechanical engineers. I remember sweating it out at the workshop fabricat

Interesting - haven't heard of Trigger.io before (I build a lot of PhoneGap applications). One thing that's going to keep me on PhoneGap for the foreseeable future, despite its issues, is the fact that it is an Open Source project now. I tr

Number of programmers is often not proportionate to the number of good programmers. By your simple equation, you'd be hiring only Turbo C programmers :D But I do agree with you - if your startup is not primarily a technology one, then maybe

Nice UX! I see you have a note on the bottom about Picasa support coming soon, so I'd wait for that. Also, a Facebook -> Picasa one would be cool too :) OT, but does the name of the domain signify anything? I vaguely remember it being s

Interesting - I am from another southern state of India, and am unable to trace it back to anywhere that isn't in the same 'state'. However, 600 years ago they were mostly just smaller kingdoms with similar cultures, rather than 'states' as

Just curious - did the fact that it was hard to get people to renew maintenance contracts have any effect on your code quality at all?
