Annual/biannual performance review.

Its sounded at first you were looking for feedback from employees which is equally if not more important.

Great work! I work for a publisher and we get referrals for our amazon ebooks. The varying items people purchase from bras to rifle scopes and of course many books is quite interesting. I'm new to programming, so would you be willing to share how to make a script to put a website together from local university bookstores? It would be a great beginner project, I think.

Ask HN: HTML Files to Wordpress Pages/Posts Dynamically? Automatic?

I have a few hundred HTML files that need to be posted onto a WordPress site, each as separate pages. The website might have a tree category such as: www.mydomain.com/title/category/page-name/sub-page.

HootSuite Discontinuing Ping.fm Integration

link: Hootsuite sidesteps the real reason why they decided to discontinue Ping.fm.Is it because ping.fm is a major competitor? Or that if you schedule for ping.fm that message can be broadcasted even further with accounts connected to ping.fm that Hootsuite doesn't connect to?

Re:Ask HN: Share hosting/domain account for friend's website? on Friday December 16, 2011 @02:14PM (#3361858)
* I'm using his personal email. That what he told me to use. Im probably going to set up a new main gmail and setup pop3 email accounts inside for his employees to send using professional email accounts

* Thanks for remimding me about automatic renewal. I asked him if he want to purchase 2 or more years in advance, but he said no. This way it will be renewed when the time comes unless the cc# changes.

* When you say 'your own Wordpress installation' you mean installing it fresh from my hosting using wordpress.org? That's what I plan to do.

* I looked at ThemeForest, they have really nice themes for cheap. He just needs a simple basic business theme, so thank you again for the suggestion!

I told him if I can't complete the project or he's not happy with it, he owns the domain/hosting and can take it anywhere he wishes. Question was whether to save money and share accounts at first, but I agree I'm going to keep everything separate since its the safest for everybody!

Thanks.

Ask HN: Best way to collect data from your users on Facebook page?

Say I want to crowdsource all the starbucks locations across the country. How can I get my facebook 'fans' that liked my page (or not) to contribute the data they already know? They click the small application icon on my page and add the appropriate info.I looked into adding a wiki, but that might be too complicated, although I want it to be editable by other users (with admin capabilities for...
