Having gone through many burn-out and plateau periods, here's what I'd suggest: - Get regular acupuncture. There's a reason it's first on my list. Yes, I realize it's hippy dippy. Yes, I realize it might not be prov

LevelUp's problems come (mostly) down to product. Merchants - Don't know how to use LevelUp. Don't have it displayed. User experience for merchants is wonky and unintuitive to boot. Customers - Also have a strange, unintuitive user experien

Reminds me of the time an Apple staffer called me to discuss an app I had submitted. "We'd rather discuss this on the phone," he said. "What's up?" "We can approve your app, but can you please remove all references to midgets touching thems

One of the first rules of Adwords is to disable showing ads across the display network (this is enabled by default). You should only be showing ads on the search network (and only google.com at that, not the search partners). Setup correctl

Second Rackspace, love it. Beanstalk for deployment of wp themes is fantastic. Did not have a good experience with WPEngine. But other's have, so take that with a grain of salt. Stay away from GoDaddy, obviously.

Personally, I hope Facebook owns the online dating space in a decade. It's time for online dating to die. I've had enough of my little sister calling me up with horror stories, like the time a guy's first message was "what's the largest y

Question: what's the story with the processes Best Buy developed that were pirated from TechForward? Does this mean they can't use them? Or can they? How does one prevent Best Buy from re-developing something similar going forward? After al

Went to U of C ... Interviewed prospective students ... all that. And, frankly: this essay knocks it out of the park. My essay (which, I'm convinced, got me into the school) was similarly off the wall. Remember that the point of a response

Not out of the ordinary. It fits with what we experienced with WPE as well. My take: if more people aren't complaining, it's because they're not monitoring their sites well. Had to move our highest traffic site back to GoDaddy (which makes

The author is essentially saying that learning to manipulate women teaches you to think strategically. He wouldn't say it like that ... but that's very close to what he's saying. He's NOT saying that it helps you learn social skills (which

Disagree with articles that are so myopically focused on dropping out of college. College is only overpriced if you make it overpriced (i.e. you major in underwater basket weaving). My alma mater is one of the more expensive ones out there

Please, please, please ... Be careful with Nootropics. I'm a bit of a consciousness-naut and self-experimenter who's obsessed about increasing productivity. I've experimented a lot with Nootropics. My thoughts? Modafinil. Stay away from it.

No way, jose. If he wants that much, he should quit for wall street. At the very least, he shouldn't be working for a startup at your stage. Frankly, if a potential startup CEO shot out that number ... at this stage in your business ... I'd
