Hmm, another cool web scraper is import.io I use to think web scraping was limited to obscure proprietary companies like connotate so I'm glad to see more of these tools becoming available for everyone to utilize and hopefully create s

Oh well, what can you do? It's like how the Kleenex name has become genericized whereby "the popularity of the product has led to the use of its name to refer to any facial tissue, regardless of the brand. Many dictionaries, inclu

Sounds like a nice idea but isn't Google News already doing a decent job on this? It's going to be hard to beat the speed of Twitter or Google News in my opinion but I'll be curious to see where this goes.

"The most important input for your pricing is quite simple: are enough people buying it at its current price? If not, you might have a pricing problem, but not necessarily. If enough people are buying it, you face the interesting question:

Interesting read. I didn't realize how lucky I am to be in the U.S. when it comes to payment services. PayPal got such a huge clout!

Ugh, so depressing... go to college, rack up enormous amounts of debt, and hope to find a job so that you can start paying off the monthly minimums for the seemingly the rest of your life.

Just tweeted this to the author and thought I cross-post it here as well: Wonderful piece, I just had those same thoughts in the midst of all this facebook IPO frenzy... stay hungry, humble, and healthy! (Hmm, I can call it the three H's :)

I love this OkCupid-esqe postings although I think Facebook could do a lot better but maybe they're concern about people's reactions to what they know.

Sweet idea. Glad I was able to grab one of the 500 invites, I usually lose out on these kinds of things so thanks! Although there might be similar ideas such as Dipity and Allofme as mentioned in the link, this has the best UI/UX in my opin

I'll give them credit for how they are communicating and hope for the best to them. I'm sure the developers there gained and learned something in all this. Unfortunately though, if they were to get bought now, they will look like hypocrites

Is this really blind? A lot of people would probably search for something they are used to searching on say google and can maybe recognize the search engine based on the order of the results.
