Somebody at the LA Times is incredibly receptive to PR people: first friendfeed profile and now weebly. Great scores guys!

While programmers keep UI in mind, a UI designer and a programmer are two very different things...

I agree with their model and love what they write, though I do think that they could post a picture of themselves and it would get voted up here just the same.

It always surprises me when people go looking for good AND cheap. There is a difference between cost and value.

Seriously. I find it difficult to take advice from her after some of the stuff she writes on her blog.

Can a dog with 3 legs walk? Yeah, but its more difficult than if it had 4 legs.

In my opinion the keyboard will become the interface of the power user while the average person uses the new tools. I just dont see a hacker not using a keyboard in the next 10 years imagine having to say a string into a microphone instead of typing it

I guess my question would be more in line with: What would you like to see in a location-centric tech news site that provides the content for the social news sites we love.

Good advice I suppose, but how many times is someone going to write a blog post about the same thing

Charity, probably not. Incredibly complex tax reduction plan, sure.

Nice Job, shows that sometimes simple is the best way.

Looks like his gross revenue is higher from what he's saying and that 120k is net?

Oh god, here goes the procession of posts like this, everybody off the cliff before its too late.

Wanna make the quality of the community better? Submit better things, be more selective about your upmods, make better comments but dont flood it with dramatic I'm leaving posts.

By doing so you're contributing to the the very problem that caused you to leave...

Entrecard is a startup from the kid who made that million dollar wiki gimmick I believe. From what I read it wouldnt surprise me if he was spamming news.yc himself

Whatever it is, it probably was done by http://www.wilsonminer.com , send him an email

Whats amazing is that before the internet you would have never even considered questions like this so early and immediately in the life cycle of a business.

google definitely, igoogle not quite as much but still good

I think the best part about this is the fact that it lets you see the apparent color when displayed on the page not just the color by itself.

Ah but even so they're selling most of that merchandise at shows that people are coming to, even if the ticket sales aren't raking in the cash for them

He mistakes a mistaken analogy. The poets that he names are not selling out live readings and the sculptors are not putting on live creation events.

When it comes to music, yes, a concert tour is more profitable for the artist than their recorded music is. This is the one difference between musicians and other artists.

While I don't completely agree with Arrington, I do believe that this blog post calling it the saddest stupidest sentence ever is guilty of the same sensationalism that Arrington is.

I believe we have the whole top floor to ourselves. I think Phil Tadros of metroproper might stop by (if you know what he looks like) since it is his shop. Other than that, we'll probably be taking up the space towards the the front of the top floor, its not very big up there so we should be pretty easy to spot.

Its amazing what ideas can come from sites that aren't about technology. Its important to get outside the bubble from time to time

both of them are pretty clunky. I'm generally not a fan of the open source clones though it is nice that scuttle has most of del.icio.us api functionality

Yeah, I was kinda tired of having to rely on things like the may report and freswater venture has been defunct for more than a year now so I thought I'd start it back up.

Its not all that hard to keep updated. If chicago's startup community is ever going to become good there needs to be a way to keep track of it all

I should note that if anyone is interested in doing a startup around this, let me know: office at unchartedventures dot com

Want a real idea that would be easy to implement and would appeal to the masses? Write a del.icio.us clone and do recipe bookmarking so people like my mom can keep track of all the recipes she sees all over the web and people looking for good recipes could just browse the popular feed.
