Interesting approach. I've heard Norway or the GB are other places that devs launch too, both with similar demographics.

Have you been struggling to get your app noticed by top bloggers? Well I got to interview Steve Sande who is the Features Editor at The Unofficial Apple Weblog and author of Pitch Perfect: The Art of Promoting Your App on The Web to teach us what to include in our email pitch to stand out from the hundreds of emails he receives a day.

Re:Any good alternatives to basecamp for a startup/side project? on Friday January 28, 2011 @06:04PM (#2153869)
I love basecamp and signed up for teambox for the document sharing, but haven't really used it yet. What do people think about it?
Re:Foodspotting, a Flickr-Meets-Foursquare Service for Foodies on Tuesday February 23, 2010 @04:58AM (#1145092)
I think this is a great idea as well. I'm not sure if the end goal is to have reviews of dishes. If so, I think you need a more structured approach. A Yelp with menu reviews.

Foodspotting, a Flickr-Meets-Foursquare Service for Foodies

I'd love to hear what you guys think about this site. I had an idea to create a menupages.com but with reviews for each dish. They seem to be attacking this idea with a different approach. If the end goal is to get reviews for dishes, I don't think it will work since it's somewhat difficult to do so and I think reviews need structure which is something they don't have.

Re:Check Out What Happened When I Unsubscribed From Groupon’s Email on Friday February 19, 2010 @12:48PM (#1137439)
I think this is just brilliant. Better than getting something for free. This actually makes me want to resubscribe.

I prefer the chrome homepage like many others have said. Not really sure how useful this really is.
Re:The hell that is a restaurant website on Wednesday February 17, 2010 @02:03AM (#1131056)
Am I missing something here or do people not just go to yelp? They have hours for most businesses. Or is this post more aimed at new ventures and the importance of having hours on the site?
