spend some time getting a fresh design on that site, and show off much more of the social activity on it. Make it look REALLY busy and active, so new users will want to jump in and…

Never ever ever describe your own pride and joy by naming another product or company, regardless if they're a competitor or not.

The thing is, most people get into SEO because it's "free traffic" and they're all pitched on how they can start making money in just a few weeks, for free, working an hour a day. …

I setup SaaSaholics.com a month or so ago, got it seeded with a bunch of content, but never got around to getting it posted here to get some users. Everything is ready to go, I rea…

apparently profit is not something we should come to expect of a 5 year old "company"...

I have been saying this for about a year now: Facebook has an opportunity to disrupt Adwords. One of the major reasons Google's Adwords makes so much god damn money, is that they 1…

yeah, I hit it a few weeks after launch. Charging from day 1 + strong forum marketing = good revenue quickly

If the search engines give weight to something in terms of being a ranking factor, it WILL be manipulated.

WHEN IS TWITTER GOING TO TURN A PROFIT??? NO ONE CARES ANYMORE UNTIL THEY ACTUALLY BECOME A BIG BOY BUSINESS AND TURN A PROFIT

twitter is inherently a spammer's heaven. It's really easy to make 140 characters seem legitimate. An hour of writing spun content and a really easy to build signup bot and you can…

Why does loading TechCrunch take me 9 seconds? What exactly are they doing to cause such a slow load? Why does a page load for them require 330 requests?

How do we submit our own startups?

Sure, but with a system that is active (like HN), there would be enough votes coming in frequently enough to handle the ranking updates and account for time increases without needi…

I'm a coder, entrepreneur, and huge philosophy fan. I think many people similar to me (IE people here) also love philosophy as well all enjoy thinking, logic, and problem solving, …

Thanks for that!

There's a difference between being honest and being a self-absorbed jackass though. The original email sent by the student was harmless and sincere and the response from the blogge…

Can't you do it every time someone votes? The scores aren't dependent on any other items other than their own votes, so each time it gets a new vote, you rescore it and it will dro…

sure, I admit the emailer went on to judge, but his initial email was: > Hello, I'm citing your work for a debate article I'm using > about space colonization and how it is improba…

Regardless of whether or not credential requirements are founded, those are some pretty dickhead email responses. Why cuss at someone asking a genuine question? Internet tough guys…

What a godawful name. Impossible to pronounce correctly without sounding like you have a speech impediment. Good example of quirkiness gone too far in the world of branding.

It baffles me how, with the number of investors involved and the huge amount of money on the line, Twitter is making any strategic move other than "how do we get profitable"

and yet no profit has been had...good job twitter, good job

I did this about a day after they officially launched +1 with Ruby for my own app. I scrape probably 2-4000 urls a day, it works fine. Most badges or like buttons can be reverse en…
