I doubt there will be enough users who feel the same way to make this a reason why theaters remain. The same argument has been made about sound quality, and overwhelmingly now the …

The issue here is not is the theater still relevant, but can the economics continue to support theaters. If the trends in ticket sales continue, it seems like theaters by and large…

This seems like a short-term problem. It would be like saying Netflix doesn't have content worth streaming, besides documentaries. A lot of people originally had this opinion of Ne…

The simple answer is realize your more nervous than the person or group interviewing you. You may not be completely yourself as your nervous, but they are being themselves. If they…

I hope this doesn't happen. With Google weakly policing illegal content, labels really do have a bad situation here. They either take the deal Google has given them which is bad, o…

This is not correct. With Google now having Chrome and other tools, there are many ways for Google to find out a URL exists. You may want to send a follow up email with a quick lin…

Hi Yegg. Very interesting update. Two suggestions for places.. 1) If I search "self storage columbia mo" I get place results but if I "search self storage 65203" I do not get place…

One business model has worked for a long time and the other has failed a lot. Haha, maybe that statement itself is not very correct though considering the car industries recent his…

ha, could be :)

This seems like a difficult business to execute on. 1) You need capital to buy the machines to give out and slowly collect $60 on. Once the capital runs out, more is needed, but wi…

My startup is probably going to use Google storage at this point. We are hosting video that only gets accessed a couple times, but needs to be available for 1 year, so the reduced …

I wish there was more information in the article about how it effected conversion rates. They've created an interesting model here though.. Its basically free or one price, unless …

I think the obvious answer here is there won't be a next-gen social network that is Facebook. Instead there will be several social networks that are laser focused on being the best…

I like iOS 7, but I'm a little worried about how app designers will do with the new look. When you compare the apps currently out that have been updated, you can see a lot of compa…

I'd give it an update or two... Apple tends to have this issue at first, either because of something in their updated OS or 3rd party software. It usually gets fixed pretty quickly…

Agreed. Most businesses actually don't care what a service costs if it does two things.. 1) something useful they need 2) cost is low enough that they don't need to get approval

A/B test pricing changes if you do anything. Most companies have a problem of undercharging for a service, not overcharging. Keep in mind your dealing with programmers on Hacker Ne…

Not sure how you can make this assertion. You don't know how many employees she's let go, how many Jobs let go, and there is no evidence that the new hires Yahoo has made are not h…

Three reasons. 1) Apple has more active credit cards than Amazon. 2) If someone were to purchase a book on an iOS device it is more likely they have an active credit card on their …

The original iOS YouTube app was done by Apple. Google also has a YouTube API with easy code examples and resources for iOS developers, today. I have to agree with Microsoft here. …

Sell it on flippa. You'll get more interest and bids.

Its interesting the title says people hate the new icons, when they only preferred the old icons. Theres a comic to explain this situation quite well. http://theoatmeal.com/pl/stat…

Right now yes. In the future, who knows. It doesn't seem like this would go away though. Each of the big streamers are building a specific base set of streamable content. Amazon is…
