What I like about HN:
1.- Intelligent people 2.- Nice content 3.- I don't have to provide an email or any other personal information.
What I don't like:
1.- I am always submitting very fast. 2.- I have two faces: one with positive and other with negative karma. But my negative karma is not well here, so my negative karma face should say that this is not a balanced place.
I prefer HN culture (that is my positive karma speaking)

A web application targeted toward educational institutions is not enough information. Potential customers for one service or products are completely different for another product. Think about books and sports. If you really want some good advice then provide more information about your application. That is a weak input is not a fountain for a great output.

It is always a good idea to be in the chain, one gives other receive and we take some benefit from it. But the difficult point is how are we going to be in the middle?
You should be around, helping that communication or action to happen but the prize is for the person who find the way to be around and not only as someone to reject.

Find a precise title for a post, that is a program that receives a url, a document or any text input and outputs a precise title for that information.
Re:How To Go From Idea To Launching With Paying Customers In 8 Steps
on Friday September 17, 2010 @04:03PM (#1702623)
I only read the comments. Usually the number seven is the magic number of steps. There are many ideas and few paying customers for then. So there must be some magic. How to transform sand into gold in five glorious steps, with an introduction by Harry Pottter.

Re:Want To Be A Freelancer? Just Punch Yourself In The Face, Instead

As you nick is inclined plane, I think the title should be: If you are a free lance there is a statistical force that try to make you punch in your face. As is generally well known men are all different from one another, so this force can also make you punch in other parts of your body or hit someone near from you. So these experience can't no be summed up in one tidy little package since there is a wide deviation.
