Is there a way to replace chat functionality with, say, images or documents? For instance, a document that the interviewer could show the candidate instead of having to send/email that document over.

Out of curiosity - does Foxconn procure the parts which it uses to assemble iPhones, iPads etc, or is it Apple's responsibility/domain to procure all the parts, with Foxconn merely putting it all together?

Nathan, congrats. You seem incredibly focused (even though you said that focus was an issue). What is your workflow process like? In other words, how do you seem to get so much done? :)

That's odd. I wasn't notified by email when it apparently became available. Were people just refreshing Google Play nonstop until they saw an option to buy it?

Google Glasses and the self-driving cars come to mind.

http://iwagerr.com is a twitter-based platform for random, friendly bets people make with one another all the time.

Disclaimer: This was my "weekend" project a year or so back. A revamp is in order!

First things first. Figure out "what is Yahoo!" immediately.

Remember Carol Bartz? http://techcrunch.com/2010/05/28/ok-seriously-what-is-yahoo/

Graphs updated, as noted above.

Haha, fair point. I've updated the graphs!

Agreed - and I've updated the graphs. Thanks for the comments!

Pity. I get a "This connection is untrusted" message: http://imgur.com/aBV32

Could I get in on the beta as well? Thanks.

Another question: Does gmvault work behind a proxy?

When restoring a gmail account (say I want to upload all the backed-up emails to a new account), would the date information be preserved as well?

That's very interesting. Congrats on your success. I've been interested in understanding the whole dropshipping process, so I'd like a copy, if you don't mind (email in profile). Thanks.

That's okay. :) I'm learning quite a bit from the comments, and it's always good to know what others think.

Thanks, appreciate it! I'll try to get a copy.

That's very interesting - I had no idea. Do you know which book it is?

True, and I was having a tough time deciding which option to take (whether to start the y-axis at 0, or 5). As far as averages are concerned, the differences are in the tenths and hundredths - so starting the y-axis at 0 would have it more difficult to see any differences across the graphs.

It's entirely anonymous - I know nothing about the users who are uploading the photos (apart from the email addresses they use when uploading a photo), and nothing about users who judge the photos.

The entire premise of the site is for the user to be judged by strangers. Why would age/sex/location/education of the person doing the judging matter?

Frustrating, isn't it? I'd have loved to give it a shot, to see how it compares to Dropbox.

I'm quite surprised TechCrunch didn't mention Exec's similarity to TaskRabbit.

Watching a taco make its way towards me in real-time as the UAV battles the wind and rain would be fabulous.

I'm shocked that Mashable is perceived to be 8x the value TechCrunch was, when it was acquired by AOL. Either TechCrunch was low-balled, or Mashable's value is over-inflated. I suspect the latter...

Nice UI but it would be great to have a "compact" setting (as in gmail). The text size is too big.

As far as CDNs go, I think CloudFlare has been fantastic. Trivial to use, as well.

The only way to know for sure is to actually do it. Go for it.

Congrats Rahul, Martin! I've always been impressed by your quick responses to any issues via email.

What are your next steps?

Is the money raised through Kickstarter seen as income, and therefore, taxable (meaning that 20-30% of the final amount raised is lopped off)?

That's impressive. What were all your startups, if you don't mind sharing?
