IME there are two main challenges 1) Pre-launch: Finding the time while working to create your SaaS (prior to go launch). 2) Post-launch: Ensuring you have the time to support your…

http://sixteencolors.net/ is another great archive for ANSi art. The art scene in the mid 90s was an interesting, vibrant, microcosm, moving from BBS's to IRC over the course of a …

Came here to say this -- thought, I wonder how much our view of the homeless in America is skewed by the "visible homeless" we see, day to day, living on the streets. Anecdotally, …

Disclaimer: I work for Adobe. Not only does it fit most of the criteria youve listed, Adobe technical leadership is becoming infused with alot of new blood since the acquisition of…

As an ex-hackintosher im always thrilled to see people pull great stories like this off! I gave up on rolling my own due to the small irritations (system error when my logic mouse'…

Don't forget VirtualBox; IMO it beats out the competing commercial products

Neat idea, but I dont like the concept. The animations instinctively make me think some action is occurring, which isn't. I think those would be better served to indicate the proce…

A link to a portfolio site would go a long ways.

Quicksilver is probably more powerful, but Alfred (to me) seems much simpler and there's a lower barrier to entry. Where with QS I had to "think" whenever I used it, Alfred's inter…

As a long time Alfred user, the workflow feature looks really astounding. Custom google searches were a huge boon to my productivity when developing (i can search APIs in a flash n…

Its quite clever how Apple used and popularized the term "post-pc" after a multi-year TV PR campaign (Mac vs PC commercials) drawing a distinct line between PCs (windows machines) …

In this day and age it seems like the phone's ecosystem is even a stronger driving force than the quality of the phone itself. While the Lumia 8xx and 9xx are very nice devices (an…

Im not a twitter user, so this may be just initial shock -- but while looking through the article's screenshots, i had flash backs of myspace.. not quite as bad, but a crowded over…

Just going to the homepage and features page I still don't quite understand what the service is about. I would like to see the blue banner area on the homepage to include a concise…

Adobe is following this "open core" approach on several of its newer offerings. For Instance adobe

This iOS6 Maps controversy smacks of Antenna-gate. Picking on one shortcoming and heralding the downfall of Apple/iPhone. Yeah, it sucks that iOS6 maps aren't as good as iOS5 maps.…

Agreed, the other yahoo pages are even less of a redesign. This is an embarrassing "article" even for TC.

At a very high level, I like this idea. It would be great if there was browser support to super-persist the auth tokens (cookies) through cookie-clearing and also sync between brow…

Im trying it out - but share voiced concerns about making the distraction that is HN that much more accessible -- but that's my problem, not yours :) and the iOS interface does fee…

Thanks for this great site - I hope it gets some traction and grows. There are so many great sites/services out there that because I've forgotten about them. Having a simple index …

Fun project, but am I the only one that finds the zig-zag flow of the "Fb-timeline" difficult to follow -- or atleast more difficult than a linear feed? What are the advantages of …

I really like this idea, but dont have a facebook. Its frustrating that I can't get into see all the gift options without logging in. You should make that "... and may more" reveal…

The performance seemed lacking, but more importantly, while watching the demo the concept of an "activity" confused me -- I assume its similar to the notion of an app, but it was h…

Could this have something to do w RIM management not wanting to canabalize it's already dwindling BB phone market? I've never used one but the ppl I know still clinging their BBs c…
