I highly recommend Toastmasters. Best place to practice giving a speech in front of a group of people that you don't know. They have chapters all around the world.

This looks really great! Does this tool have any desktop apps for logging hours? I can't seem to find it on the website. This is the only must-have feature that's missing for me. Logging hours only from the website is not suitable for my workflow.

J.K. Rowling would have been on the list but she gave away a lot of her money taking away her billionaire status.

I'm not sure if you've ever been to a bike shop when they are having a sale. The bike shop I was at had some bikes listed for $999 on sale for $739. That's more than $200 off a bike and they're still making money. The guy selling me the bike doesn't lose that $200 difference. They are making higher profit ratio on a bike than a car dealership does on a car.

If you get treated differently if you have issues in the future because you bargained then that's an issue with the business not the price you paid.

Btw, I paid full price for the bike as it wasn't on sale. My guess is they made 30% profit from the $800 purchase.

I don't have experience in a lot of negotiations but I have used similar methods many times. I bought a bike a couple days ago and got them to throw in a few extra things for free. I didn't negotiate the price of the bike but I made a point of needing a light and a helment.

First, I asked for a light that would be go great with the bike and the sales person put one he had laying around on the bike. I said it looked great. Then I asked for a helment and found one for me that I liked. I put on the helment and did a test ride with the bike. I told him I'll take the bike. Then I asked, how much for the helment & light? He gave me the price. I said "That's not bad but honestly, I don't have the money for everything. What can you do?" He offered to give me 20% off the helment & light. I again said that was a great deal but couldn't do it. A few more back and forth and me throwing in that I would need another bike (for my gf) and wanted to come back and buy from him, he eventually threw in the light and helment.

What I knew was roughly how much profit they were making from the bike. I knew roughly the mark up of accessories and I knew how they wanted to sell the bike.

It worked out really well for me and the business. I love the bike and the business now has a new loyal customer.

I do this with all my projects just to see both my progress in learning UX/UI and also my thoughts. I've learned a lot by taking a look at what I thought was "amazing" then the next "amazing" and so on until I got the "perfect" design. For me, the #1 thing I've learned is to leave trying to perfect the design until the real data is available. It makes such a huge difference that I always, without exception, change some aspects of the design as soon as the data is displayed. Just my experiences over the years.

I'm not sure the carriers have a say in what Apple charges. It's probably the market. People go nuts for the iphone. Lines still happen for the iPhone. That's what sets the price. I don't know how many lines were made for the Nexus. As awesome as Nexus or any other phone may be, they're definitely not on the same market level as the iPhone, in terms of popularity not in terms of percentages.

My parents had the same exact issue. I use dropbox for that. I just change the size of all the images to 1024x768 and share a folder with them with all the pictures. It works marvelously!

Both my parents only use an iPad and never ever used anything else.

And this is why a "save story" feature should be added. I do this too and it's probably breaking the logic behind why upvote exists in the first place.

I've been following Tonido for what feels like 5 years now, and I am always impressed by what you guys do. Keep up the great work!

I guess I was saying that a lot of things happened that were indicators that the site may have not been what it is today. I don't know how much money they have in their bank accounts but I'll bet all mine it's not millions from the reddit sale. I just get annoyed by the hype of a vision and someone be responsible for something that can't really be explained. If it really was that for them, as jay-z put it, they could create another one.

So, I'm a bit confused. How is Reddit considered a success story by it's founders? Wasn't it sold off really early to Conde Nast? Didn't it only start to blast off into success-o-sphere like right after Digg started dying? Wasn't Conde Nast not providing resources to the team which, forced them to ask for donations (reddit gold) from the community to build more servers/hire? I mean, it all sounds like a big barrel of luck that it even survived.

Also, the only way she would give him a divorce is by him offering her the Nobel Prize money he knew he would one day win for his work in physics. She took a gamble and gave him the divorce.

I love this bootstrap Metro theme http://wrapbootstrap.com/preview/WB0HT4KX4

Thanks!

Does anyone know of a them for Sublime that looks exactly like Chrome?

I just watched a documentary about Pixar and they mentioned John Lasseter used to spend 3 weeks straight in the office working. Just because you're working a lot, it doesn't necessarily mean it's the wrong company.

Here's a funny quote from him:

why do you have the best parking spot? John Lasseter "Because my car hasn't moved in 3 days"

But, I would move on too.
