Ability to accept payments is a feature, but no one would say Stripe wasn't a startup that's now grown into a large company. Features can be viable startups if they provide enough value and hard enough to replicate.

Honestly, while it's not perfect, javascript will likely give you most bang for your buck. You can use it client side as well as server side. It's not the perfect tool for every situation, but you certainly won't regret knowi

There are ~100M homes, ~3k counties, ~27k zipcodes, and ~300k neighborhoods and subdivisions that all have different market dynamics. A sample size of 9 make this analysis completely meaningless. Equally important, is that the author of thi

How do you plan on gaining national coverage of listings? Between the agents, brokers, aggregators, and MLSs the data supply chain is incredibly fragmented. Securing access to all of this data is an incredibly time intensive process that r

Very cool site, I can see this being pretty darn interesting. Things I would like to see (but I am only one person!) 1. Mobile interface (I hate to be that guy, but this would be awesome as a native app for those travelers) 2. Widgetized!

Before I offer any critical feedback, I want to first say that the first line of code I ever wrote, my "Hello world", was on Codecademy almost immediately after you launched. Since then I've learned how to use programming no

The common problem with hackathons is that you usually don't get to vet your team members/co-founders very well. Building a is a marathon not a sprint, so it's best to make sure your co-founders are really people you want to

Looks like we have them in a separate part of the site ( http://ca-high-school-ratings.findthebest.com/ ) I'll be the first to admit we should have these joined into one another.. I'll have to bug that PM about it
