"In addition to races, Robic trains 335 days each year, logging some 28,000 miles, or roughly one trip around the planet."

Jeez, I suspect the majority here drive way less than that.

Since you are a music site, you need to know what music they are clicking, downloading, listening, etc.

I recommend using http://mixpanel.com for your analytics.

For feedback, have various "thumbs up / down" as part of the site. Ex: Does hiphopgoblin rock?, etc.

I sympathize as it looks like I'm headed down the same road. I look at it this way, you can at least "start all over" again from a relationship point of you.

My clock has been ticking for 3 years and not sure if the hard work will pay off but I won't trade what I do for anything else.

Sometimes finding the right person is just as hard (or harder) than being successful in a startup.

Making something together physically is fun but online? Not so sure.

I love your Joolme idea (great name, too). Teenage girls are an underserved market (online, at least) and I can see its potential. I have 2 sisters that used to buy costume jewelry all the time. Even as adults, they still do.

The potential problem I see is the social aspect of trying on the jewelry physically and "chatting / giggling / discussing" it. You alluded to some aspect of social design but will it be enough?

P.S. - you might want to do a private registration on your domain names, unless you used a pseudonym or a friend's name :) [edit: since you want to remain anonymous]

Nice homepage but all the links are 404s.

The post says spin-off. Is it a new startup or a new app?

This could become a place to look for co-founders and as such, adding search and "am looking for a founder / hacker" option are helpful.

EDIT: do you do email domain matching to determine if a school has been entered? If not, consider using that to normalize data.

I have had 2 major neck operations due to 3 fractured vertebrae so...

Listen to your doctors and your physical therapists. I did lots of fiction reading and exercised like hell when I was allowed / needed to. Eat healthy, like you normally would even without a fractured hip (although your doctors probably recommended supplements). Do activities that bring a smile to your face.

Bottom line: let your body heal naturally, don't worry too much and as most of the comments here have said, be patient.

Unfortunately, roundabouts don't work here in Manila. We have a couple here and it's gridlock. I think car traffic engineering has many universal qualities but also quirks that need to be tweaked per country.

I wonder if this could be applied to car traffic, especially in emerging countries, where traffic is at best rush hour conditions during most of the day.

“Not everything in life has been good – but things have mostly come in a fortunate order. It’s got nothing to do with skill, it’s simply luck. Like the idea to drop by the Department of Industry … it was just because I am the kind of person who hates waiting.”

Most successful people contribute their success to luck - maybe that's why they are so lucky.

Your assumption is correct (at least for me).

Looks like they have 2 other product divisions. What would be nice to know is how much of the $50M can be attributed to zoho.com.

I initially read that as "Amazon pushes frustration-free parking..." and thought, wow, what is Amazon not getting into?

You have combined 2 passions of my life: technology and food (I will be going to chef school part-time). Just when you thought there was no way you could create another recipe site, you create one that I actually find usable. Kudos.

Did you use a simple parser to parse ingredients or did you have a corpus of ingredients to parse against (or both)?

Thanks for the library. Useful. However, I found a blog post cut-off.

Here's the post: http://evhead.com/2005/11/ten-rules-for-web-startups.asp

I actually have the appname.com already :)

Good points both. Thanks.

Sometimes, it's hard to let go of a name that you perceive as "perfect".

While the names are similar, they are 2 different products.

Congrats Danny! That was quick work.

If you are a passionate coder and love python, contact me. We are going after sharepoint.

I was in the back seat with my seat belt strapped. And seat belts / air bags will not prevent serious injuries 100% of the time.

Was temporarily paralyzed from neck down (it seemed permanent at the time) from a major car accident but managed to crack jokes with the paramedics on the way to ICU.

Ended up with fractured C3 to C5 and ripped ligaments and had 2 major operations and a halo device. I was 15 yo.

Cofounder of http://isyncd.com going after sharepoint and box.net. Previously founding country manager for friendster philippines.

Sounds like Bit.ly is offering hosting services. Swoops in to save...that's going a bit far (unless they offer cash).

Evernote doesn't go as far as you suggest but allows one to search for photographed words, which comes in handy.

I'm also in Manila. Would love to meet up. Email in profile.

Checked out your site. Have you tried going after a niche in the DIY website creation biz to differentiate your offering?

A thought...why not go after restaurants? Have a way to upload menu easily, a location with map info, maybe even online reservations. Fully outsourced, customizable and charge monthly.

When you do go outside, drop by restos and show them your screenshots (done in PS) and get real feedback. You can probably hit 10 restos in a day.

Note: this is just top of my head -- not sure if anyone is even doing this.
