We just released a refresh of our beta and need feedback.ESMZone is a community game where student athletes are rewarded for mentoring their peers, rating each other, and developing leadership skills.We have a lot more to do, but getting feedback from a wide variety of people is invaluable. I appreciate any ideas, thoughts, opinions and your time.What's good? What's confusing? What would you...

Re:Ask HN: How do you successfully work at home with a family? on Wednesday April 06, 2011 @10:40AM (#2415232)
The hardest part working from home is telling your kids work is why you can give them attention they need. My kids are in HS now so are out of the house most of the day which makes it easier. Its still a challenge to maintain the separation between working time and not working time (though even when i went to an office, i was always working). Its important to get some time out of the home even just to maintain your own sanity. As long as you don't have to be on the phone, working at a local libraries or starbucks can be a good change of pace.
