Most lectures are actually all CS classes organized by YC

Why make it nicer?

You should probably also keep in mind that this isn't a consumer app. Who ever uses this will have seen the entire process before and tested it in a training environment. The redesign seems mostly to focus on making sure stuff isn't done by accident.

I think pilot offers a great service. Though There are a handful of competitors out there that seem just as a good fit.

Cool!

I would also love to recommend http://logodust.com, for open sourced logo designs made by a design agency [1] that you can download and use for free.

Check out http://logodust.com, a library of free to use logo designs that are perfect placeholders for prototypes and mvps IMHO.

I would pay $xxx for a good UX/UI designer!

Correct, but in all honesty, I totally forgot about it.

Great writeup, though I have to be completely honest here and say that I love Patrick's writeups for independent hackers, makers, micropreneurs, bootstrappers etc. His writings and practical case studies gave me the power, as a nobody, to make tens of thousands of dollars in order to be more with my wife and child, while doing the work I love. I kind of miss those essays.

http://fairpixels.pro - for unlimited ui design (only if you have multiple client projects)

http://basecamp.com - goes without saying

What's your business that you guys like to work on large displays?

Wouldn't it be better if Disney bought Netflix. Sure it's a much more expensive move, but consider their large (and pretty loyal) customer base, content library, data insights on what people want to watch, award winning movie and series strategy, etc. Disney could populate Netflix with more content of their own, own all the revenue, while still providing users with a vast variety of content. Netflix brought all the content together in an awesome and simple experience. Large co's are smelling dollars so they start to build their own Netflix clone with their own content. Customers don't want to pay for 20 different subscriptions. Give us 1 simple app, with all the content, and we'd probably pay a lot more for it.

Disney is obviously thinking they have the winning strategy with their large license database. They'll obviously lure people in with Star Wars exclusive content, Pixar, etc. But if they'd go the extra mile of buying Netflix, and giving us 1 subscription 'to rule them all', they'll prove their care for their customers.

Pretty much anything, built games, learning apps, marketplaces. Any way I can contact you?

In all fairness, if you read through the comments, you'll see that each time was a new version being launched. This time it's the full product. The previous time there was a landing page. The time before was a prototype. And the stuff before that seems to be a completely different service with a URL belonging to someone else (sold perhaps?)

* How are you doing it? * How much do you know how to charge? * Do you recommend it as a way of monetising your (side)project?
