    PWAs are also useful where you want visitors to be able to access a portion of a website while offline. I run a site that hosts audio tours[1] for museums and walking tours. I use …

    This also opens up the opportunity for a lot of lifestyle businesses. It may, at first, seem like a major downside having a venture backed startup competing directly with you. Howe…

    Is it just me or are those two paragraphs worded in a way that makes the difference between most and least satisfied larger? If only 35% of computer science grads say they have no …

    They did get advice from some of the most experience startup investors in the world. Who's biggest question was why they hadn't started charging users. Taking advice from highly ex…

    I just wanted to point out it's totally normal to go through waves of interest or motivation for various things in your life. Especially if these are things unrelated to your caree…

    Your Audio Tour ( https://www.youraudiotour.com ) is making about $120 in recurring monthly revenue. I built it using Micheal Hartl's online ruby on rails tutorial which I would HI…

    I think the difference in these cases is that the business never owned or controlled the merchandise being sold. For example I would expect a real estate agent to report their comm…

    You are right - what Alex did is called "free soloing" which means climbing with nothing attached to the wall. Freeclimbing means you climb while harnessed in so if you fall you (h…

    At the moment I haven't considered how I would implement that feature. First I want to see if I can get people to use the basic version. Do you have a website? If so you should sha…

    Cool, thanks for the link! Looks like a great way to explore new cities. I'm hoping my site will be more helpful for smaller, less tech savvy, organisations who want to create thei…

    Thanks! Appreciate the kind words. The target was definitely for smaller museums that lack the time and budget for a full tour. I noticed a lot of these museums don't have audio to…
