Well...that was different.

I'd watch it - but I'd hope it was a lot less edited than that bloomberg tech stars series.

Definitely an interesting next step into this geek list-like area. Keep it up and stay with it.

How does one learn to think, if not through education? And academic article-based education is the primary way of learning in academia. I very much agree with the post's point abou…

Thanks for posting the list - more startups should do this.

Good article about getting at the core of what users ALREADY want. I think that this is the crux of the confusion for most people. Many startup entrepreneurs want to make vitamins …

Really not sure how effective the template will be once the novelty wears off, but still glad they lifted the....dress to show everyone.

This idea of documenting everything through the process from idea generation to publishing is very interesting. I keep thinking that these types of storyboard explainers might be u…

This is a classic critical mass app and I'm a little skeptical right now as to if it has the legs. But then again, I thought Quora was the greatest thing since sliced bread and it …

Yeah. This doesn't seem like startling news.

Agreed. Not just in other countries, but many rural areas of the US. There are some incredibly talented people out there that may not be able to move for one reason or another. How…

This is the worst kind of marketing for tech stars. I wonder how many people who held them high esteem are seriously questioning any motivations of attending.

I can see many developers moving towards this idea of integrating Siri APIs into their apps.

The simplest ideas are the ones that are commonly the most useful. Very interesting tool!

Am I missing something? From a native iOS perspective anyway, this is nothing new. (Besides the one-click log-in anyway) This seems like facebook's way of catching up with how twit…

“Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.” - Thomas Edison. I've never seen that quote before but I love it. Great s…
