Congratulations, that's very impressive! VBA seems like it will be around for many years to come, and there is probably good opportunity in and around financial centres (London's C…

Hugely impressive piece of work. I migrated a Wordpress blog to Jekyll a few years ago and was surprised how nice it was working with a flat file system. However, things do tend to…

I am currently working on what I hope will be a startup (lean, bootstrapped etc) and I am dealing with thousands of feeds. Presently I am batching 5-10 feeds to download in batches…

You are of course, correct (as ry0ohki states), but this one FOIA request could lead the way to more competitive favicon quotes from contractors in the future, leaving a net saving…

I think you might be underestimating the click-happy masses (myself included) who will happily pump the middle mouse button to queue up some even potentially interesting reads!

What Really is SEO What is Really SEO What is SEO Really What is SEO, really? ...And relax.

Any anchor text you would particularly like people to use? I do quite a bit with SEO, and imagine you want to avoid too many "over here" anchors!

Hm, I am not sure WePay is ready to be making these kind of gestures. I thought I would take a quick look to see if it would be a viable option to receive payments in the UK. Their…

To quote directly from the above link: "Walking directions are in beta."

I don't think anyone else will understand why you would want to use it either. More competition, more innovation, better products for us to use in the future? You probably don't ne…

Totally agree; I'd rather have the excellent content they deliver and a few ads. Most people just gloss over them, anyway. OP - try AdBlock, or buying their book to help support th…

I didn't read this as an exercise as avoiding accountability for copyright infringement, I read it as a thought exercise that picks apart the Digital Economy Bill for the joke that…

Somewhat confused arguments here, given that Google has started an initiative to make the web faster (through reducing file sizes and HTML cruft): http://code.google.com/speed/arti…

Interesting, but somehow doubt that many people have the set-up to handle this number of data.

Ever since one of maxklein's posts came into Google Reader and promptly disappeared, I've been looking over his stuff with an eye of uncertainty. This particular posting mentioned …

Appreciated ; )

I read this in The Times this morning (made it it into the print copy), and was surprised/pleased to see a HNer make it in). Also relieved that the usually self-promotional jgraham…

37Signals have obviously spent some time putting this video together, which serves to demonstrate their discovery of the "hyperlink", which allows users to navigate around their we…

I'm not sure I would have many concerns over "privacy" with the number of times I visit "CSS Colour Wheel" or my items tagged "cheatsheet". It is not so much surfing history, but m…

* Universal (cross-platform, cross-browser) synchronisation. * Tracking my most-searched-then-clicked-on links, and showing them in a "Personal Top 10" stack for quick viewing, whi…

In the spirit of identifying niches that HNers could develop products and services around, I'd like to ask what your problems are. I'm guessing the majority of readers here are not…
