    I say drop all of the 'Ever/Evernote' references/nomenclature asap, unless this is just a side project or experiment with no plans to become a business. Invite page needs more desc…

    As a dev: Not sure why the blog sidebar needs to be on every page, especially Pricing. Doesn't come off as "pro" and at first made fear that the entire app may have been built upon…

    Notwithstanding my feeling of being link baited by the term "social networks", the points in this article are what I've come to assume & expect. Even if you take out the race angle…

    Similar used to (and I assume still does) happen fairly often in FFXI as well, thanks to the Auction House system, where someone "corners" the market for a short period by buying u…
