eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: You've been programming. What surprised you?
Great code is not required to make money and does not neccessarily help increase revenue. Customers cares more about issues being addressed now than how well it is designed underneath.
eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: Does becoming a successful startup depend on having maintainable code?
The question is more of is it required. I want to see weather there are many companies that have created hard to maintain code, but were able to become successful because of just producing a product that people wanted.
eeagerdeveloper··on Show HN: Non-Anonymous Chat on IPhone
I originally showed HN my website http://chatoften.com and got some great feedback. I've moved the application to the IPhone. If any of you have an Iphone please tell me what you think of the experience.

This is an app that lets you chat with another authenticated facebook user. You'll both see each other's faces and names.

Thanks.

Hi, what issues are you having with it? I'll look into it. Can you please tell me the version of firefox you are using?
eeagerdeveloper··on Show HN:Non-Anonymous Chat
Thanks tomp, I was deploying a new version and I seemed to have caused an issue. It should now be fixed.
eeagerdeveloper··on Show HN:Non-Anonymous Chat
Thank you, I'll look into that.
eeagerdeveloper··on Show HN:Non-Anonymous Chat
I'll need to fix that. The user's is suppose to update once a session is established. I need to set that beforehand.

By the way, what browser are you using?

eeagerdeveloper··on Show HN:Non-Anonymous Chat
I hacked this together to see whether there is a group of people that prefer not to chat in anonymity. I tried out a few anonymous chat sites and most conversations involved male genitalia or some perverse comment. I hope people can start a better conversation when they reveal their name and picture.

Please check it out and give me your opinion.

eeagerdeveloper··on Ask: HN Best book on programming for non technical founder?
I would suggest you read "Joel on Software". It can teach you how to better communicate with your technical founder and programmers and to understand the general technical challenges in undertaking a project.
eeagerdeveloper··on Show HN: My IPhone App that makes $25 a day
Thank you agent86. Your feedback is appreciated. 1. The (null) is a bug and I will fix that in the next release. 2. If you don't turn off notifications, you will always be notified on the day of the birthday. The notify days before is an additional notification that you can receive. I will try to clarify this on the settings page. 3. The anniversary support sounds like a good idea. I'll try to add that to the next release.

In addition, I was thinking of adding notes to track birthday gifts to give a person. Do you think notes would be useful to you?

Thanks again for your feedback.

eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: Please recommend companies to buy shares
I would recommend companies with a low P/E ratio, low debt, and a history of earning a profit. Here are a few.

ARO,CSCO,MSFT,WDC,RSH,GES,APPL

You should then research each company and understand how they are making money and try to determine whether they will continue to make a decent profit.

I am not a professional. Take this advice at your own risk.

eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: What's the most effective way you have found to get Facebook fans?
Hi flignates,

I just released a website to manage updates to your fan pages. Would you check it out and tell me what you think?

eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: How do you promote a splash page?
The splash page looks fantastic.
eeagerdeveloper··on Whats a good book on the fundamentals of Computer Science
The defacto Algorithms and Data-structures book http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0262033844/
eeagerdeveloper··on How to be 100% sure your startup idea is good
I put my startup on the service. One thing I have a problem with is that it exposes my personal email by default. I think you should make it private by default.
eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: What's the most effective way you have found to get Facebook fans?
How often do you send updates to your fans?
eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: What's the most effective way you have found to get Facebook fans?
I think facebook fan pages are useful in re-engaging users. I equate it to an email list. You can gather fans like you gather emails for your email list. When you push a message to your fans it is similar to pushing an email to your email lists. Both don't drive more users to your site unless the user chooses to share the email or the status message.
eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: How much time a week do you spend managing your FB pages?
Are you choosing not to use facebook?
eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: Is it better to use Facebook login than a textbox to collect emails?

A lot of it has been completed, but it has been one of our internal tools that we use for our facebook pages. We are working on making it available for everyone. We think it will take 2 - 3 weeks to get it out.
eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: How do sites like Foursquare/Gowalla obtain db of geolocation/business?
There are services that can provide this data such as Teleatlas.
eeagerdeveloper··on Feedback on a Business Idea
I think a website like this could help validate a lot of mass market consumer driven business ideas. However, the effectiveness of using mechanical turk would rest on who the mechanical turk users are. I don't know if you get the right type of feedback from turk users for b-to-b apps.

I would suggest you take an idea that exists that is not popular and test it out.

eeagerdeveloper··on Ask HN: What is your method for contacting reporters, journalists, and bloggers?
This maybe considered spam. You need the permission od the bloggers, journalist, and reporters to email them.
