Hey Everyone - did you know that I once single-handedly saved 1.6 million kitties from a forest fire?
Yeah, well I did. Cool, I know. But hey, I like puppies better than kitties. Should I mention my amazing feat on this application to the NYC Fire Department?
Do you think the NYC FD will even care I saved 1.6 million kitties? Saving turtles is WAY cooler right now, sort of like node.js., I wouldn't want anyone to know that I was even good at saving kitties.
Thx, Grant

Recurring, recurring, recurring. Recurring revenue makes a business.
Recurly or similar makes it easy, albeit a bit spendy.

I already have a tendered offer on the table. Does flippa.com provide contracts outside of their ecosystem?
Also...not too keen on paying commission to a third party for a deal that has already been negotiated.
Ask HN: Selling a Website & IP
Holy cow.I've received an offer for a developed website + a few related domains.Are there any open source or public domain boiler plate contracts out there for a sale of this type?The dollar value of this deal makes me want to cross all of my t's.

Re:Google: Bing Is Cheating, Copying Our Search Results
on Tuesday February 01, 2011 @07:03PM (#2168134)
Did anyone stop to think that Bing is leveraging IE to improve/influence search results regardless of the URLs this monitored traffic is gleaned from?
Google states 9 of 100 planted queries showed up on Bing. You think Amazon, Godaddy, and AOL could make similar claims?
Probably...but those examples aren't worried about their market share evaporating.

Ask HN: Chrome redirecting to random MySpace pages
Every now and then Google Chrome will redirect a link, typically to an obscure MySpace page or abandoned Blogger blog. This appears to be inherent in Chrome (no reproduction in Firefox et al)Anyone else experience this?Likely use-case occurs when clicking an off-site link on Twitter, sending me to an abandoned Blogger (orig Pyra/Ev/Biz) blog.

Many comments can be made on the actual state of surveillance in many democratic countries...
These commenters can only comment on their perception. After all, perception is reality.
Many Chinese think life is grand, no idea about the level of examination their lives have.
Let us live our own lives as if everyone knew.
