They're also great for kids... pretty much a slip-on(quick) and I don't have to worry about them being destroyed since they're cheap.

Ha! Funny! Too bad the homophobes on here can't appreciate a good joke...
migpwr··on Ask YC: Feedback on early version of my startup, a digital whiteboard that doesn't suck
Just thought you should know... your app caused a crowd in my cubicle when someone walked by and saw me playing with it. They asked what I was doing and I told them what it was and everyone had a "damn, thats cool!" feeling about it.

nice job!

migpwr··on Anybody at vkernel.com?
Anybody on startup news working or know of anyone working at this place? I'm looking at some of their products for the vmware environment we manage & thought to ask since they're a startup and on v1.0... we just deployed a trial of their app & it looks pretty good!

migpwr··on Ask YC: What is the best lighting source for a room with no windows?
They make floor lamps that point up to the ceiling and reflect light off of it... I personally like those the best. They're inexpensive and usually have 3 settings.
migpwr··on Box.net Now Uses Scribd’s iPaper for Previews - Sorry, Adobe, but this thing just works better
I'm all about it but what's with the name? iPaper? When is the "i" thing going to die? Product is great but they could have put a little more work into the name imo...

migpwr··on Kiva.org: So sucessful it has run out of projects to fund
Yes and thanks for taking the time to write this...
migpwr··on Kiva.org: So sucessful it has run out of projects to fund
So what you're saying is on top of being gutless you're also not funny? tough beat ;-)...

oh man, another delete?

run imsteve run!!!

migpwr··on Kiva.org: So sucessful it has run out of projects to fund
Yes, you don't understand and you probably never will. I know I did a terrible job of getting the point across but now given your statement I don't think it would have helped much anyway.
migpwr··on Kiva.org: So sucessful it has run out of projects to fund
No, not exactly... I was trying to add that the borrowing being done on kiva is not the same as the "ho-hum" loans being taken out by "americans".

If someone really helps you get ahead then it's likely you will want to repay them and I think that's what you can see happening at kiva. It's not a big home loan or a credit card... it's a chance to really help improve their lives.

You should man up and repost the comment you made and then deleted...

migpwr··on Kiva.org: So sucessful it has run out of projects to fund
I didn't downvote you originally but I will do it now for being a little gutless... why take your statement down simply because you're being downvoted?
migpwr··on Kiva.org: So sucessful it has run out of projects to fund
Just to add a something... you're also talking about a potential life changing opportunity. When was the last time you used your credit card and felt like it would change your life? If it did change your life for the better you would probably want to give back to the system, no?

I think most people would... It has nothing to do with being american, it's the conditions these people are living in that make them appreciate the help.

more like they don't know this exists...
