   +1 love to see companies with innovative interview process that go beyond standard tech interviews and really try get to know applicants. I chose an internship one summer just because I enjoyed the interview process so much.

    The justin.tv/twitch/socialcam founders sold their first startup's site (kiko - the first AJAX calendar) on ebay once it failed. The ending bid was over $250,000. Not sure if ebay is the best place for this but it is an inter

    I love usemin. It is really simple and works perfect for my workflow. In development, it allows me to have all my js and css files referenced normally. In my build process, usemin concats all the js and css files, minifies them, and replace

    This is the not the case anymore. A lot of the early loses were necessary investments to establish the infrastructure needed to compete with google in search.

    I don't feel comfortable giving my amazon login credentials like a lot of people here. I think Unioncy ( https://unioncy.com/ ) has an interesting solution to this. They parse your emails for amazon receipts to figure ou

    I think there is something to be said about the environmental impacts of ownership. As much as we love to own things, it isn't sustainable for the environment.
