Jack presents good advice that still is an important part of culture in certain sectors and within certain types of businesses if you want to move up the corporate ladder. He says to work hard but also to work smart, I don't think he&#

A smart, young, relatable person of the next generation to grow the company. Looking forward to seeing what Sam's got under his sleeves. Has Sam done anything in the entrepreneurial world after Loopt was acquired? Or has he just been a

I agree. The new PayPal wallet app that just launched recently is fitting for an older generation and could be improved 100x with Venmo. It will be interesting to see how they will fold Venmo into the current PayPal app, or would it make mo

What were the real problems then that led to their fall? Lack of technology innovation? badly run company and operations? lost touch with the consumer? All of the above?

This sucks for Canada. Less than five years ago RIM/BlackBerry's share prices were trading at ~$150, now it's $10! I can see this depressing Canadian start-ups and its tech industry. Like Kodak, the main reasons for BB's

I'm pretty sure I saw a documentary recently about the increase in juvenile crime and the increasing occupancy rates in jails. Also, what about biological disposition and hormonal influence?

I saw on the news today that 70% of the US is a size 14 or larger now. Shocking. In addition to the need for sugar and starch reduction, a lot of grocery foods are not as natural as we think they are. Having lived in European and Asian coun

It would have been interesting to see Waze remain independent and as an alternative map solution. With 34 million users, it could have been a very profitable business for the long-run.

you can upload data over wifi or cellular network. It won't take up space on your device, i.e. 10GB of photos/videos from your library will just be 300mb on your iPhone.

The bigger problem we're solving is not just photos, it's being able to access and edit content fluidly and seamlessly across devices and on any screen. We're starting with photos and videos as they take up most space on your devices/comput

The 1TB is definitely real. They had unlimited storage before for pro users. The fine print was confusing (i.e. max 300mb uploads per month). But I guess consumers now favour an actual measurable number (1TB) than unlimited. Flickr is a soc

It's just disappointing when larger companies that are supposed to be experienced with marketing announcements have messy executions, it just affects the service image/credibility. Well, at least it's good for start-ups to learn from them!

This message was from just two hours ago. But why make big announcement and then make changes? Should be other way around?

Thanks I will try this. A healthier body and mind should lead to better work results.

It's good to hear from someone who is balancing both. I chose to work for a startup so I am aware that somedays I will be putting in a lot of hours and energy but I just haven't actually gone through it yet (like I am now) and am realizing

I feel like the Bay Area is epitome of this dilemma. I sometimes wonder if we are actually making up more stuff to do, or if there is actually more stuff to do than before. Always being connected to work through your device doesn't help eit

Thanks for the two-step plan! It's easier said than done. I agree with going to networking events. Good point. If I go to at least one a week I should be able to build a good network here (I hope). I want to avoid online dating to meet peop

Really good point. People always say 20's is when life happens. But it's pulling me in both directions, either you enjoy your 20's by enjoying life (i.e. more focused on social life) or you heed the advice of older successful businessmen wh
