It only verifies whether the email is a valid one. It doesn't verify if the person actually owns the email.
It is cool. But is it useful? The only information it gives is day of week, assuming you already know where to position your slider. It doesn't have holidays and number of days in a month. So if you don't already have a calendar with all the information, you can't use this calendar.
Wow how did you get it translated to so many different languages?
That's a good point. 'X days ago' becomes meaningless once the page is stale.
Culturally, politically, racially, or religious sensitive names such as:
god
allah
mohammed
jesus
evil
satan
666
13
taliban
terrorist
terrorists
jahar
hitler
nazi
georgezimmerman
arielcastro
etc
Cofounders' names and their variations.
Both are not hard to implement. But exact timestamp has a timezone problem, while 'xx ago' is universal.

When you see postings or comments with a timestamp, would you prefer to see xx seconds/minutes/days/weeks/etc ago or the exact time stamp? Why?
Thanks both of you! That's what I am going to do. Get a theme and rebuild the landing page.

I just release my MVP beta bamrang.com. Everyone tells me it looks terrible (and I agree ;P). I need to find a designer.I can't pay big bucks for it and have no experience working with a graphic designer before. But where to find one that is "good enough"? One that is willing to customize instead of giving me a standard template like those on Themeforest. What is the ballpark figure I...

Beta release of an MVP. I know it's not the prettiest design-wise compared to many of the others. But I would like to get some feedback from you guys. Thank you!
That is true. But why would her lawyer be willing to risk his reputation to help Rowling to make more money? Just trying to solve this puzzle.
Interestingly all the 1 star reviews happened only after the author's true identity was revealed. What kind of psychology is that?

Thank you so much for writing this post! A lesson learned!

A show is like a dream. There are so many images, so many ideas that cross my mind during a shower. But they can be just as easily forgotten as a dream if you don't deliberately memorize them after the shower.
I have no experience on hardware startups. But my gut feeling is that they do have additional layers of complexity relative to pure web startups. As such it makes sense to have somewhat more co-founders than web startups.
However, the more people you add to a team, the slower it moves and the team dynamics grows exponentially. It will reach a point after which you get diminishing marginal gain, or even negative gain.
For a startup I believe agility is critically important. I would be worried to add too many people from the outset because it is difficult reverse it. It's hard to 'unfounder' a cofounder later on. My advice is to have a core team of 2-3 cofounders to see how it goes. If you really feel insufficient after a while, bring one in one at a time. It is less risky than having too many in the beginning and discover problems when it's too late.
