I'm going through a great Irish incubator at the moment and I agree. The ones that focus on customer development and give you the added resources to do it more effectively are definitely worthwhile and make your limited time more produ

It must have taken 2-3 hours to write the copy, but I'm clueless to the goal. If it's a competitor to Jelly, show us how it is better. If it isn't a competitor to Jelly, show us how it is different. Visually it looks very sim

I thought this was a parody. Obviously most well known and funded startups would have a large number of early users from SF / The Valley in technical professions.

I like the app and I think the easy to remember name suits it well, even if Hemingway might turn in his grave. It's a promising start, but I'm not sure if I'd continue to use it unless I could start tracking improvements in m

The app icon doesn't really look Facebook-like and the second screenshot look like a photoshop disaster. If I had never heard of the app, I wouldn't think it's an official Facebook product.

30 years later? Sure, but I think they would have done well with any brand name. I really like 53's Paper app, but I wouldn't like it any less if it were called Doodlepad, DrawPaper etc.

It's like Apple Inc and Apple Corps. Lesson to self, avoid generic names.

It's painful to do a tech startup anywhere but in my experience, what London suffers the most from is the cost of living. I spent the last 3 years working in Shoreditch and most of the startup founders I came across were either bootstr

Actual people still write real reviews on Yelp?

But let me be a bit more fair. I checked out the app and it looks really sweet. I don't quite know how I would use this, as I rarely write long articles on mobile, but good job!

A bit misleading this part: Less than four months after launch, Quip now runs on 76% of the world's smartphones and tablets. I didn't know I had Quip on any of my devices. Also: Available in 11 languages on 8,560 distinct mobile

New red is much better. Red wine instead of ketchup.

If you look at early stage investments in Europe, the terms are pretty good. Eg. compared to accelerators, seed round investors etc.

Power connector like the wireless chargers by Nokia etc? Not sure what a I2C interface is... My point is that I would prefer objective reviews, not glowing praise from fans etc. The key question for is not what tech did they pack in a small

Meh. I'd wait for the first few objective reviews. I lost interest when they said things like "there is one hardware feature that is unique to Jolla: The Other Half [...] a concept of user-changeable smart back cover." Surely

Very interesting. Would you mind sharing which vertical/industry you are in? Do you think your success is because competition is currently low or because you can do something clever in targeting the ads? The way I see it Twitter is eit

Wow. I've never seen a remotely interesting sponsored tweet so I'm surprised if advertising was an effective way forward for them.

Office for Mac. For free online apps I've got Google Docs. Last one I paid for was Office 08 for Mac and it was quite buggy.

This feature has been essential for so many years that I've stopped using Office entirely. Most of my docs are shared and edited among a few collaborators. I'll reconsider office 1.) when it is free 2.) when it works seamlessly on

Never heard of EditGrid before but looks like it will be switched off in May, 2014. 1 guys "hobby" vs. 60,000 Microsofties.
