parvinsingh··on Facebook: Legal action against employers asking for your password
Well, you dont need pwd to piggyback into a user's account. Since the userID/pwd validation is theirs, they can bypass the validation if they want based on some prefix or suffix in the userID field.

I wonder, how would someone interview a doctor. Asking him more of theoritical questions ? Or asking him to do practicals, which I believe might be completely off the books depending on the situtation :). Anyways, there are 1) people who pass the interview very well, and cannot perform the duty on the job. 2) people who do fair on the interview, but are very well executors of the duty. 3) People who really become the backbone of the feature, and become the go to guy for everything and anything, they may or may not perform at the interview.

A live Ustream channel, for this, with questions being accepted from twitters would be appreciable.
parvinsingh··on Docracy - Free (community curated) Legal Documents
I just signed up with docracy, but as soon as I signed up and visited the next page- Test Signing Document (Non-Binding)

There is some spanish/french content, which I think is from the web design template that you used. You should think of removing it.

'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, noster periculis dissentiunt eam in, cu vivendo splendide sea, vidisse phaedrum mel ea. Vis ne paulo corpora suavitate, salutandi theophrastus vel ei, facilisi mediocrem deterruisset cum ex. Mandamus expetenda vis ad, cu dicit offendit constituto cum. Ad eos wisi pericula assueverit, in eum soleat insolens convenire. Has oratio aperiri aliquam ei, mei ex nostrud comprehensam. Summo quando eos ut, mundi maiorum cu sed.'

parvinsingh··on Show HN: My Start-up for managing roommates
ha ha dotben :). I had the same opinion, but I refrained myself thinking that these might be some students who are pretty excited with their school project or something. Ofcourse I second you, but if this was a way to test twitter bootstrap, or just checkout their own capabilities with web development, then great. As far as market is concerned, I have never felt a need myself, because I never stayed with roomies.

I would rather say, a 45- 60 secs max, video with a screenplay, would be just awesome. If you can tell the pain of whiteboarding the tasks, or roomies arguing over the tasks, and then the advantage of using GoodMate. This is a pretty simple idea, but a damn needy one.

Cheers!!

parvinsingh··on Dude, it's a laptop you want, not an iPad
The funny thing is that we buy what comes in new, and don't really know the purpose or use of it. iPad to me makes sense if you are an avid browser, and a reader, or type in few short emails a day. First came iPhone, and then came various keyboards which can be blue toothed to the phone. Dude!! the iPhone has a touch keypad, and its not for typing in long emails. Use the gadget for what it is meant for.
parvinsingh··on Apart from delicious any tool to track urls for read later?
Something that I come across browsing on a system at my friends place or at work, but really want to come back to it when I am home. Some URLs I want to bookmark and some mark them to read later.
parvinsingh··on How Path Gets Clicks and Why Foursquare Flops
This is a great comparison on UX for any app or start-up. What i really want to show the user when he lands up on a page, and what next. This is like the Coca-cola add, where they dont sell the brand, but show a soda bottle with Coca-Cola (in small) for a short duration. Engage the user in what you want, no need to sell the brand-name. He will praise you more if he likes your work :).
