Sure, we'll be sending out a recording and summary after the event to registrants.

Just tested it out, worked like a charm. Very handy!

We've done A/B testing at Rypple on our Pricing page, and found most of the principles suggested by UXMovement to be true.

You've done some interesting things with your pricing page. Couple comments: - I'd reduce the complexity of the page by removing the drop down boxes for impressions and just changing the pricing buckets to up to the maximum impressions offered by that bucket. The way you've got it now means there's effectively 13 plans. - I've found that listing the features in order from those included in all plans to those included in the fewest plans to work the best.

In a recent interview (D8 Conference), Jobs called Apple "the world's biggest startup". I don't think it's a question of size, revenue or growth, but rather the mentality of the company and the individuals working there.

I signed up for a Chargify account a couple days ago, been working on integrating it into my app. Really simple, great API. I haven't run any transactions through it, but on the integration side, it's pretty solid.

Both worked for me. Can you try clearing your cache?

It's just a preview of the first 9 results. Apple only returns back a limited number. I need to find a better way of displaying if there are more than the 9 results. Any ideas?

Was a bug affecting apps that have spaced in them. Fixed!

(Air Video still doesn't show on top when you type Air Video as apparently Apple's iTunes API is ranking Air Mouse Pro higher)

Great suggestion. I thought about doing tabs when building it, but wanted to keep it as simple as possible. Any ideas?

EDIT: Fixed the contact form, thanks for pointing that out!

I am logging queries. Do you have any tips/suggestions as to how to do my own predictions?

Thanks. I'm excited to see how it scales!

Found a bug in my code. Try searching now!

I agree with you. I didn't build App Store Instant as a replica of Google Instant. With the APIs available, there isn't a reliable way to predict apps.

I built it because iTunes is slow. Try searching iTunes and clicking on an App (to read the description). It takes me 5+ seconds. This takes ~1 second.

Rypple (http://rypple.com) in Toronto is hiring an Inside Sales Rep.

We're offering an iPad for a successful referral.

What was the transfer process like?

I'm also looking for a better chat platform for my team. We've been using a Skype group chat for the last 8 months (there's just three of us, so it's not SO bad).

I'm trying to find a chat platform (either native mac based or web app) that keeps really good chat logs.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: Do you know what kind of logs Campfire keeps, and how long it keeps them for?

I bought a domain name for a project from BuyDomains. I offered 25% of what they had it listed at, and ultimately got it for that price.

I had inquired a few times to purchase the domain, but never got very far with the negotiation.

They sent me an email last summer advertising their "No Serious Offer Refused" sale. I responded with my offer, and was patient. Close to the end of the month, a sales rep called me back, and I found he was much more willing to a negotiate (probably to meet sales targets at the end of the month).

The big take aways for me were to 1) be patient when dealing with them, 2) don't sound over eager to get the domain, and 3) commit to an amount you're willing to spend before going into the negotiation.

I spoke to a Rackspace Cloud Servers Engineer a few months back, and he said that they're the same servers (same specs), in the same data centre. Not sure if he's 100% accurate, but regardless, as the customer, the only differences I see are different control panel design, inclusion of bandwidth in price vs "pay as you go", and a monthly vs hourly billing.

I was seeing a relatively high (30% or so) open rate on emails, but knew there was a deliverability problem because friends and family were reporting not getting my daily emails (my site automatically sends out an email every day at 9am). I'm now using SendGrid, getting an open rate of over 50% (yeah, it's nuts!), and I don't need to worry about DNS, SPF, etc. I highly recommend SendGrid.

Apple is reporting that most apps are approved within 7 days.

The TapTapTap email was sent out to MacHeist's email list. When purchasing a bundle, you can specify if you don't want to be part of the list, but by default, you are: http://grab.by/1n8R.

I've worked on some MacHeist developer relations projects before, and one of the benefits is the massive email list. Dan Grover, the developer of ShoveBox, participated in one of the bundles recently, and sums up his feelings in this comment: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=945891.

Cloud Servers are essentially just VPSs.

Cloud Sites (which is $100/month) is a clustered, high availability hosting platform. I haven't personally used it, but based on my great experience with Cloud Servers, I'd expect it to be worth every penny.

I personally really like Pingdom. It's simple to setup and pretty cheap.

They must be A/B testing it, only the 50GB/100GB show up for me: http://grab.by/D6f.

Hey, Jordan here from Rypple.

I spoke to the team about the stat, and we agree with you that the uploading of a logo might not be the only cause for that increase in response rates, but we feel it is a big reason. Based on a sample of our enterprise customers, we feel this is a valid stat that shows the increase in usage across all users.

We A/B test a lot of different things in our app, and I agree it would be interesting to further test this stat.

Thanks for your comments!

I priced it out for a wall, and it's really expensive. For an 8ft x 18ft wall, at $3.99/square foot, it would cost $574.56.

I personally think $5 is a great price point, but would make 3 tiers of plans.

1) Free, limited number of responses (maybe 5/month?), ad supported.

2) $5, Unlimited number of responses, no ads.

3) Skinable version for companies, allows them to manage questions/responses asked by employees.
