You definitely need a dedicated office space. Especially when you got kids in the house! When we were looking for a house, having a sweet office space was one of the major factors. My office is away from the family common areas, on a different floor, and the noise I hear is minimal if any.

I hear ya taking little breaks. I'm all for taking advantage of the benefits of working from home. It's just when they get out of hand is where it gets dangerous.
I hope this time around it works out well for you. Thanks for the note.

Re:The Future of Markdown

We recently added Markdown as an option in our hosted reseller CMS (YikeSite) in hopes that some of our customers would choose it over the WYSIWYG editor.
You can play with it here: http://www.markdowncms.com
If there was a standardized Markdown, we would implement that for sure.

I work from home and I eat breakfast, lunch and dinner with my kids. I've built a successful startup and am launching another without compromising anything. It IS possible and our breed of entrepreneur is more common however underrepresented in the startup community.

It is definitely possible and I do this on a daily basis. I work from home, have 2 kids and have founded two startups. It's not without its challenges that's for sure...
