flickr, mefi, FogBugz, used to pay for O'Reilly's Safari. Bought the Instapaper iPhone client, if that counts. Made donations to a ton of services and people, mainly open source projects, web comics and such. Also donated to wikipedia, wiki

Hopefully, Songbird will take the Firefox approach and start innovating more. It's good to see it copy iTunes, because iTunes has a great user interface, but at some point, they'll hopefully exceed iTunes, just like Firefox exceeded IE.

Frankly, I think the idea is fundamentally broken. Having a "usability expert" click through a site won't give much more insight than reading a bunch of Nielsen's top 10 usability mistakes and then looking for them in your site. If you want

Obvious solution: Buy iPhone. Get approved by Apple as a developer. Write awesome application. Make 1000+ bucks a day. Buy every other cell phone on your list and compare them yourself. :-)

My email sig: "If there's one thing I am truly proud of, it's that I've wasted all my talents, contributed nothing to the human race, and will not be remembered by generations yet to come." If you're doing things because you want to be reme

His main (and only) issue with the iPhone seems to be battery life. Interestingly, tests have shown that the iPhone's battery life is about on par (somewhat better, in fact, see links at the end) than other 3G phones' battery lives. However

I'm not sure whether saving money for a startup is a good idea. It might just be a copout, a reason why you can't yet start your own company. But you can. You don't need that much money to incorporate, and you don't need to quit your day jo

We don't know what your issue is, so we can't give you useful advice that applies to your situation. For me, I'm finding that I don't want to work 100% anymore, and I won't work overtime anymore, and I don't want to live in a city anymore.

Good answer. I agree, eating is key. Up to about 25, you can probably pretty much eat what you want. After that, you have to start keeping track of what you eat. Being active is the second most important thing; it's not easy at first, but i

Maybe we should wait to hear whether they remaining devs will be approved at a later date. I've seen people approved with absolutely no track record whatsoever, so the requirements can't be too stringent.

Yes. Not becuase I read it, but because I don't want to read it. I'm always disappointed when an interesting-sounding article ends up linking to a pointless Techcrunch rant.
