One of the most interesting things I learned from lockpicking was how the physical size of the lock actually has little to do with how easily it can be bypassed. Another cool side effect is learning about lock mechanisms. There are so many

The pricing not showing up appears to be a Chrome issue (at least for me).

Looks pretty cool! Are the prices missing from the pricing page, https://minefold.com/pricing ? Based on the Upgrade to Pro page I think it is $25 for 6 months for unlimited access. I like the idea, and the distributed pricing mechanism is

This is pretty neat. You could potentially link Siri up with all kinds of crazy stuff. "Siri start my truck" "Siri feed the dog"

Isn't #2 pretty close to their tiered data plans?

This is an interesting product. It seems to only be officially supported on the Nexus One and Nexus S (and Android 2.3) at the moment, but it sounds like more devices are in the works. Their WhisperCore product has two alternative screenloc

This is a pretty good idea. I can see it being irritating at first, but I bet if it was paired with a swipe motion like that on Android it would actually work pretty well.

Precisely. My first reaction when I read LastPass's release was relief that they actually cared about user security more than the potential bad press.

I actually really like that they did a point by point response to their critics. To me this is an important step for today's companies. The internet gives a voice to customers to raise concerns, companies are able to see these concerns imme

I'd never heard of SpiderOak before. Reading some info on their site here is how they explain how they allow access to your files from a browser. "When you access your data via the website, in order for the SpiderOak server to send you your

Interesting article. I hadn't heard of the UK's ROCs (renewables obligation certificates) before. That sounds like a fairly convoluted and silly system. Wind power is a bad idea IMHO.

One thing I have noticed about ereaders (and owners of ereaders) is their willingness to purchase books. I have friends who before buying a nook or a kindle would read one or two medium sized books a year. Revenue for Amazon/B&N ~ $20 (

I like the site and idea. I remember seeing a site that was similar but for things like quitting smoking. The location based part of this definitely adds an interesting twist on the standard "Rob was here" location based services out there.

Nice simple controls. Game-play is fun pretty fun. I think no matter the game people will always say it is either too easy or too hard, so don't get discouraged.

I ran into this immediately as well.

This is really cool. Your docs are well put together, and simple. It looks like you put a decent amount of time into them, which I really appreciate. Too many apps write the docs as an after-thought just before launch.

Is Angry Birds something I 'need?' Well, maybe for some people I guess.

You can always come join us in the great white north of Montana. The tech community is small and pretty tight knit. We'd be happy to have you. More persuasive material here http://bit.ly/hghtmI and here http://vimeo.com/17564571 .

Mechanicals are too loud for me most of the time, but I understand his point. I enjoy a quality keyboard. I've also never really liked the apple keyboards. It's nice to have some contour to your keys instead of just flat. Key layout is the

Haha thanks for the feedback on the pitch. Maybe I'll run through it again once I get some more coffee :)

I like it. The only thing I was seeing was because of the 'position:absolute;' rule in your CSS the dialog jumps out of the flow of my page. I'll leave it up on my page for a while so you can check it out, http://theredhoodie.com .

I like the name. You might want to also grab the .com or .co if you can just to make it easier for people to find you.

This is pretty cool. I like the simplicity of the whole thing. It definitely makes you cut down your pitch to a handful of words. Check out my pitch here: http://pitchpower.appspot.com/pitch?id=agpwaXRjaHBvd2VychILE... I definitely think

One thing I would note, if you plan to open a business checking account most banks will want to see the tax id number for your business.

We are considering "seeding" the integration front using our public API. What type of third-party integrations do you think would be the most useful to you guys and which do you think we should we tackle first?
