You could try the RailsInstaller ( http://www.railsinstaller.org/en ) project from Luis Lavena. I went from essentially zero webdev experience to completing Michael Hartl's Rails T…

No mention of Madeleine L'Engle's "A Wrinkle in Time"?

I'm gone the 28th-30th, unfortunately, so I'd vote for anything before or after that (January 3rd would be ideal.) Either way, though, welcome to Chicago, Patrick!

I was contacted today by a salesperson from my local Better Business Bureau. She began the call by saying that someone had contacted them about our website and had inquired about o…

We're looking for short-term remote Rails help implementing faceted search using solr/lucene or websolr.

Though several startups are addressing this area, I like the timeline approach taken by Eternos ( http://beta.eternos.com ) [Disclaimer: I've blogged enthusiastically about them in…

At Molex, we've been pitched recently by Invention Machine to adopt their SAAS service "Goldfire". They claim that Goldfire makes it easier for companies to incorporate TRIZ princi…

Genlighten is looking for a Front-end UI/UX Designer / Rails Developer. Details are at http://bit.ly/dshmNY . Preferred location would be Chicago or Logan, Utah, but remote may als…

My wife and I have been co-founders of our nights/weekends startup from day one. She runs customer support (phone and e-mail) and is the prototype "seller" in our online marketplac…

Yeah, I've checked the posterous video for new views (alas, none so far). But mostly I'm working on improving the existing app, dealing with a recent influx of users, and filling o…

I'm looking for a part-time front-end UI/design person with RoR skills to help out our bootstrapped nights/weekends genealogy startup. I could meet your income needs (paying by the…

Trying to get the video done for our YC app. We're seriously bad at saying anything cool or interesting on camera... all we can do so far is laugh at each other. :)

I've signed up for postling, which offers some similar features, but it hasn't really "wowed" me yet. Your service sounds a little more ambitious in some ways... and it hits a part…

We currently use Constant Contact for newsletters and email campaigns. It's served us well so far, but I could be easily convinced to ditch it -- the email templates, editing featu…

Just thought I'd add +1 for Intense Debate. We've used it on our site's blog for a little over a year and we're quite satisfied.

+1 for sendgrid. We've been using them for several months now with highly satisfactory results.

I'd advocate taking a longer-range view-- both of the design of your site and your relationship with a designer. If you're at all successful, there'll be lots more design work to d…

I first came across Justin when he blogged from the FamilySearch development conference back in March of 2008. My wife and I had been looking for months for a technical co-founder …

A somewhat inverted approach (snail mail => web): www.zumbox.com

From a ways back, but still a pleasant memory: Richardson, Dean; Gibbs, H. M.; Koch, S. W., "Computer simulations of fully cascadable picosecond all-optical logic using nonlinear s…

Nice... makes we want to spring for a smartphone just so I can see it in action!
