Nice. BusinessWeek seems to do that a lot, too. It doesn't even look like the "Print" link circumvents it as on other sites. So what were the companies? For some articles I just read the comments here. ;)

It might make sense--a pizza shop owner who couldn't afford to rent in a highly-trafficked area may have similar problems bringing customers to his storefront (stores don't usually pop up and have instant success). Plus, a brick-and-mortar

Reading your post and considering it further, I guess his message is less about starting up than about how to survive a day job and continue to grow as a human being by doing interesting work at night. Blub work on a startup at night could

Thanks for posting this; the part at 40:00 actually motivated me to view the rest, which I recommend to anybody working in a corporate job. Hopefully this summary does justice to the remainder (but IMO it's worth watching): 40:00 Essentiall

I think they're working on it and this is more of a preview (though I don't know for sure). My first impression was that the feature list next to the logo needs a different font. In general it seems like a nice improvement over the old site

FYI from the comments: "JF: While the lack of a free plan lead to increased paid signups, we decided we’d bring it back because we’d be missing out on a lot of upgrades from free -> pay. That’s a lucrative pay path for us."

Well, if you've really made up your mind then it would be damn cool to see a post Wednesday night about your big win! Regardless of the outcome, I hope you'll be okay with yourself (actually I hope that for everybody). There are other thing

I think they do some of those things now, with ads on the floor, blinky-lighted coupon dispensers, end-caps (?) and so on. I suppose it could get uglier, though. ;) I also think they've become savvier about promoting their generic brands.

I think it's best if you just go without expectations and see if it's to your liking--that's really the only way to know for sure. You might be pleasantly surprised. I went to a group meeting similar to the one you mentioned at its inceptio

Sorry to hear about the hassle. Are you sure you didn't receive a series of e-mails warning about the upcoming renewal? That's what I always get from GoDaddy for each of my domains, prior to the auto-renewal. For example, I received one at

It's a good pointer to the recent sales figure releases, but it doesn't seem like the author ever gets around to revealing how to reach the top of the App Store. I wish he'd tell us. ;)
