What would Andrew have to gain by doing anything shifty here? Nothing. His reputation in this business is worth way more than he could ever generate selling an e-book. I respect An…

What are the Tea Party 'riots' of Summer 09 he is referring to? Seems like both the Tea Party and OWS demonstrations are peaceful (I'm sure there are a couple of knuckleheads in ea…

Paying taxes is patriotic in one sense. But not feeding the monster is also patriotic. Fundamentally, if I knew tax dollars were were being spent efficiently, I wouldn't have a pro…

Outstanding -

It's somewhat crazy to realize how much certain 'businesses' rely on government contracts, as apparently this company does. It's also infuriating that for all of the sanctimony, es…

Can anyone suggest good resources for companies innovating philanthropy on the web? I'm looking for creative ideas in fundraising and awareness. Either actual charitable causes or …

It's just insane. The one sector of the retail channel that's really cranking is online. And given the many (not the occasional bad experience, the many...) that I have in shopping…

Zappos just shut down their service to Canada: http://business.transworld.net/59733/news/zappos-discontinui...

I agree with Mystalic and I commend the effort and the really cool site she built. I hope she gets the job - As a side, I hope hiring companies realize that many of their applicant…

This is great - Southwest still doesn't charge baggage fees (not until your third checked bag anyway). I've heard industry analysts criticize Southwest for not charging fees and 'l…

Fascinating - I could be wrong but I don't imagine too many people push back so hard on @paulg like that. I have great respect for @fredwilson for pushing back and then admitting i…

I think it's cool. Good for you guys for posting something creative and fun on your site. (No idea why anyone would be critical of this.) Coincidentally, I opened a Wistia account …

Amazing that 15 people are alleged - that is a lot of people to have in synchronicity with so much at stake. Thankfully no one was hurt -

It doesn't surprise me that your friends and family differ in opinion (I have been surprised to not find one in my circle that supports the bill). That said, one family member in p…

To clarify, I have been approved for private insurance at different times (three times actually) over roughly twelve years with intermittent times of receiving benefits from employ…

I find it absolutely impossible to believe that her coverage was denied for the reasons she described - I have been approved for and paid for my own insurance for years (including …

Yes - the entire office is covered in decorations, themes and general craziness.

I've been to the Zappos office - don't mistake the random crap for anything other than an extremely motivated, tight run ship - those guys are killer business people - top to botto…

If Groupon were a brick and mortar, they would be known as a low-brow discount store. They are certainly very successful but a lot of low-brow businesses are, that's nothing new. F…

I don't think the question is about non-technical business people 'showing chops...' This is about smart people - there are brilliant business people and there are brilliant hacker…

To the designer, that is definitely not the way to go about your business. You are begging for trouble and doing more harm to yourself than the guy that is stiffing you on payment …

If anonymity will remain what is the point? And saying there is no chance a centralized database will emerge is impossible to predict. And what purpose does the ID serve if it's no…

Does anyone know if there is a mechanism in the US government that would allow people (like Warren Buffet) who want to pay more in taxes to do exactly that? Seems like it could be …
