Im sorry...but I, being a designer who has done both consulting and full-time work and 'likes to think' he tries to solve the customer's problem first and foremost, find this rate of $300-500/hr extremely high. Has anyone else heard of numbers like this being made, be that full-time or consulting?

Yeah I think this point has a parallel in #6 referring to placing important content on the left of a web page...

"...for sites that are traditionally read from left to right, placing important design components at the left is a good idea; vice versa for sites whose language is read from right to left."

If you choose to try out slinkset feel free to contact me (email in profile) and I can help you with any questions you may have.

When we first started working on slinkset we played tennis probably every other day. Even when we were in Boston for YC. Because of the weather we haven't played too much lately...but we'll be starting up shortly im sure. So if you're in SF, let's get a match going.

If you're asking about what happens when you mouse over it...i'll leave that for brett to explain.

Yeah, sorry if we were a bit quiet on the home front. We've tried to do a good job of keeping up on the help requests though. As for features, we've been knocking some out here and there, but as you can see from the Virgin America site...categories are alive and kicking. Look for them to be released to the public real soon.

They came to us through a couple degrees of separation. You never know where opportunities will come from.

in fact I have started one a while ago at http://musictime.slinkset.com

Cool. We'll look into it.

Yes, having the problem with trolls is obviously understood, this is why we give you the admin the ability to "ban" a user, kill comments/submissions, as well as set any other user as an admin to police the system as well. Granted this could be time consuming for some, which is where I can see your use-case coming into play (which we will look into).

My only other question is, if "good users" are coming to your site but now have no way of participating (commenting/submitting/voting), how are they able to prove themselves and get an "invite" to participate?

You can set your site to "Editorial" mode which can be found on the "Settings" tab and then go to the "Users" tab and set the users that you want as "Editors". So the only thing missing is having it so other users don't have the ability to comment or vote?

Out of curiosity what is the reason for allowing users to view but not participate in any way?

Hey all, so "anonymous" is only days away (possibly this Monday). We're not planning on releasing the feature to the general public until the 16th. But if you'd like to be one the "special" users to test it out early please email us and we'll set you up. Thanks.

Thanks for using slinkset for this. Yet another creative application of our service. We would really love to help get JustHackIt to take off for you. Please feel free to contact me if you have any thoughts or ideas.

high five back.
