A couple UX suggestions for you. 1. Display the price on the landing page 2. Have the logo at the top clickable to the app store. That's where I clicked first, and didn't get what I expected

Would love any feedback anyone has.
I think the biggest part of this is the effort that she put in to have something in common with her partner. I think that it's a good reminder to everyone with a partner/spouse that putting in the effort to get your hands dirty in something they're interested is a great gift.
Re:New York City gets a Software Engineering High School on Friday January 13, 2012 @12:02PM (#3461323)
I think this is great. The kids who are going to be applying and accepted to this school already have the desire to pursue CS and I would imagine are already investigatingthe topic on their own time. To be able to be exposed to formalized education in a field that you're already excited about is an amazing opportunity.
Re:Poll: Do you think HN should go dark in protest of SOPA? on Wednesday January 11, 2012 @07:00PM (#3454328)
I like the solidarity angle. I think that it would be great if there was information about how HNers could use their voice to affect change. Similar to how americancensorship.org gives visitors instructions on how to do something about it.
Re:Ifttt raises $1.5M Seed Round From Top Investors on Wednesday January 04, 2012 @02:32PM (#3425501)
This service is great. I'm really excited to see it grow. Congrats on the funding. It would be great to be able to login to multiple accounts of the same service. Might already be a feature, but I wasn't able to get that set up. Sent a support email. Hopefully that can be added. Really pumped about where this will go.
Re:Poll: As a freelancer, how much do you bill per hour? on Tuesday January 03, 2012 @04:09PM (#3421309)
Previously I was placed by a "staffing" company that took 33% of what the company I was working for was paying.

I only know this because the person who was my supervisor slipped up and told me... I didn't stick around there too long after that and have built up a great group of consistent clients of my own.

Re:Show HN: A Pinboard for Entrepreneurs, Skillow on Friday December 23, 2011 @11:46AM (#3386201)
I really like the idea. Signed up. Want to add content to my board to curate the content and mark the items that are particularly relevant to me, and I can't see how to add something to my board. If you can make that functionality obvious, I think that would help make this a really useful application.
Re:Suicide on Tuesday December 13, 2011 @02:36PM (#3348856)
Suicide and mental illness need to been seen as conditions for which people need care and support rather than marginalization. Thank you for posting this.
I know there are a couple companies out there that focus just on making restaurant websites. There is Aioli (http://aioliweb.com) here in Seattle and I know that they do the site for James Beard Award winner Lark (http://larkseattle.com).
