I just joined pocket and was looking at all the top recommended users. All the top users have not added bookmarks for a few years.

Does anybody have current users stats for the app? Is the app dying off?

I'm looking for a bookmark app where I can discover new content that is curated by the users. Any suggestions?

Can you please explain yourself more how it is an ad?

Is there a limit to the number of times I can post something about a certain company?  I'm passionate about companies that are doing things differently as far as marketing. A while back sproutrobot.com posted here and I promoted there stuff on other sites like stumbleupon and emailed my friends about it.  I have no idea who the guy is that started that company but I love the idea of it and want to see him succeed.  With betabrand they have built a really strong community and I'm fascinated with their success.  In the past few weeks I have exchanged emails with them and I'm getting to know them and just want to show others how much success they are having in hopes to inspire other entrepreneurs to think outside the box when it comes to marketing.

I posted an awesome picture of one of their fans skydiving over burning man, wrote up a post on the blog I write for and posted it here, then saw the  NYT artical and posted it here in the last 30 days.

Others may feel the same as you do so I will keep that in mind if and when I post about them in the future here.

Your right. Sorry it was late at night and I was not thinking right. Just thought it would be fun to share a nerdy laugh. All stay away from these kind of submissions in the future. Please forgive me :)

Little off topic but the art on the walls was painted by David Choe: http://www.davidchoe.com

I hate the design of the slide show embed but i enjoyed the pictures. Almost did not notice it was a slide show.

I understood your misunderstanding immediately after reading your post. That is why I felt obligated to educate you. Condescending is a word that most would use to describe your responses to some posts. I'm not here for your feedback. I'm here to share information with others who have like interests. Please show some class. The name calling is unnecessary.

I have always understood what he is pitching. It is you who do not understand what I am "pitching". Its unfortunate you could not see my original intent. I am not using the "Mad men" clip as a fool proof template to be used in conference rooms across the nation. I was simply trying to share some of Draper's fictional talents with others who have like interests. The clip shows a pitch with passion, emotion, personal connection, and knowledge of product. I feel these elements are worth noting if you have any entrepreneurial interests. I advise you think a little longer before responding to any more posts. Its alright, it happens to the best of them.

@pvg Sigh. OK I will take time to respond to you. I will try to get to this thread tonight. Sorry for not taking the time to write well. Damn it where is the tweet button?

I'm always fascinated how people can see things so differently. Seems like @pvg missed my attentions for posting this link. Others understood the post and that is why it got 82 votes. I'm not saying @pvg is wrong...he has some good points...but some of his points leave me scratching my head..but i don't want to get into a debate over it.

Scott great find! The intro is long so here is a link that cuts to the good stuff: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjDSqQmcc90#t=1m05s

Dang it... I figured that is where the story was going to go. Wish I would have not read this comment. ha.

Here is another motivational thread on HN: Ask HN: Movies that motivate you? http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1349566

I just watched the first episode of Mad Men and I'm hooked.

Chrome bookmark sync malfunctioned and I lost 400 bookmarks because it only backed up a 100 of my 500 bookmarks. It just dumped 400 bookmarks but luckily I had backed them up a few weeks back so I ended up only losing 100 bookmarks.

Also Chrome sometimes loops the sound from a flash video after I close a tab.

I emailed the Chrome team about these issues but no response.

Yep looks like they did pull it. there are a couple of different groups/pages but the one they pulled has 100,000 "likes".

Thanks! That is cool that you actually saw it. Ha. I'm going to try to complete the Pacific Crest Trail next year.

I'm sad to find this out. One thing I know is cycling is dangerous! I road my bicycle 10,000 miles around the perimeter US and loved it but everyday on the trip I would hope that I would not get hit by a car. Had a few close call on the ride, but I made it home safe.

Here is a video of my ride: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8Uht3DnbOQ

Good write up on why the hay might not work: http://senseofevents.blogspot.com/2010/05/hay-for-oil-spill-...

Do you have a facebook page? Would be nice if there was a like button on the homepage. Really like your concept! I stumbleupon.com it too.

http://twitter.com/conanobrien yep it is working. Conan is following 23 people now. He only follows one person.

@hristov I'm sure if you get creative you can come up with ways to have "an enormous number" of captcha's. If you take the Dish Network example you could say "what is quoted text" + this "number". That just one example that comes to mind. @paraschopra I think you have a good point my mind set is annoyed when I have to fill out a captcha.
