Re:The wait is over! Download Joost! on Tuesday April 10, 2007 @02:29PM (#11405)
I wasn't really a fan of joost. It was very choppy for me. All I wanted to do was see some Stella episodes but it kept completely stopping and starting the next one. A friend of mine said it was much smoother in the earlier releases so I'd assume that it'll run nice at some point. I'll give it another chance in a few months.

There's another little thing on this. I guess they're now 'pushing' the ad-free radio more since the royalty rates increased.

I think there's going to be a lot more of these sites popping up in the near future. Someone's got to take down that monster.

I love this stuff! What a coincidence with the LEGO name. I can't believe they didn't plan that out. The Six Apart name is interesting too.
There was a good thread about this a couple weeks ago. People recommended a lot of great books.

Re:Why Y Combinator is a waste of time on Thursday April 05, 2007 @05:01PM (#9379)
I took it that he meant that the artist wasn't willing to work at his music enough to gain traction and wanted a quick track to success by signing to a big record label. With that being said, I think that the majority of YC submissions aren't looking towards this as an only alternative but one of many routes that could be taken.

(took out the first paragraph I had here. I should have read the full article!)

People that are applying for YC definitely are just seeing this as another possibility and not an end all to their idea. I'm sure that a very small amount of people are going to give up their business if rejected.

Re:Is YCombinator News the new DIGG? (i think so) on Wednesday April 04, 2007 @06:18PM (#8929)

This is on the same sort of topic. PG isn't looking to make it a DIGG but to stick to the startup crowd.

I thought so too but I wasn't sure all of the features that were involved with iminlikewithyou.
