SEO Blackhattery Superhack #1: Make a very simple statement that nobody can argue with and put a swearword in the title to make it exciting. Submit to social sites. Rake in the fucking money.

Great point here as well.

People often feel like they wasted their youth regardless of how they spent it. They always feel they could have done more, could have been more. I have heard the same stories from friends who made it to a very high level in sports - they feel they dedicated too much of their life just to one purpose too. The same goes with the socialites - they often feel they just wasted too much time at parties and all those blend together with time.

It actually reminds me of a key point in my life when I was talking with a close friend of mine. He had just returned from an amazing trip backpacking through South America for 4 months and he told me he was envious of how I could be so stable and driven towards my one goal of starting my own company. I was shocked, because I felt the exact opposite and wished I had went on that trip with him.

Such is life, and it is full of compromises.

If the worst comment you receive about the service is the logo sucks - you are on to something!

Ask HN: Can you help me find a wife?

Really - a cofounder is a tight relationship that is tough to find. I wouldn't jump into bed with a stranger :)

I got my first job offer for a startup (as a co-op/intern) by email with a document that contained the changes for every employee contract they had given out, including the cofounders. I got to see exactly how much money and the number of shares for everyone. The company was funded by a VC that had some central lawyers/HR folk that handled everything like this, so there really was no excuse.

I would much rather see a Gmail-esque size limit that continually increases with capacity than a false claim of 'unlimited' personally.
