    I do this but in a different way. I work 40 hours a week for most of the year and then take off a few months at a time. This allows me to travel with my family before I'm retired a…

    Sadly, I too found it unusably buggy. I reported a number of them. Some were fixed, some weren't. Their support response times were great and I really hoped they could get it worki…

    We're planning to support a variety of services, not put all our eggs in one basket. Tumblr, webstagram and all these sites do not offer the same service as us. Maybe our marketing…

    In the case of my app, monogr.am, we provide a custom designed gallery with options to choose any images from your feed. We have custom domains etc. I don't see this as a competito…

    For far too long after I moved to Canada my bank would not allow me to withdraw more than $400 / day ($200 cash, $200 debit card). Of course I could deposit up to $250,000 just fin…

    I think you have to be realistic about HOW LONG you will be carrying a laptop on your shoulder before you take a break. 10 minutes? Half an hour? 3 hours? Realistically? A 'standar…
