Excellent app. I can see why you won.

One minor thing I saw: when I searched for "C#" it returned "c programming"

"But, who benefits in this case?"

uh.... everyone. Trying to sue someone so you can force your employees to stay is lose/lose.

Ditto on the PSD advice. There are plenty of PSD to HTML chop shops that will do a much better job slicing and creating standards compliant markup for your site.

It ends up costing a little more in the long run, but you also get a better quality product.

My thoughts exactly. I actually like the fact that users can edit questions and answers. This, plus the voting mechanism ensures the best information is present in most cases.

I stopped reading after this...

"None of these problems should have been unassailable, which leads us to why NewsLabs failed as a company:

     * Nathan and I had major communication problems,
     * we weren’t intrinsically motivated by news and journalism,
     * making a new product required changes we could not make,
     * our motivation to make a successful company got destroyed by all of the above.

Overall, the most important of these are that Nathan and I had difficulty communicating in a way which would allow us save the company, and that this really drained out motivation."

Maybe you should figure this shit out before you take someone's hard earned money.

great idea. great execution. poor design. You did the hard stuff, now make it look good and you'll have the complete package. Nice work.

That's awesome, I like the solutions where the Rubik's cube isn't modified. I've seen several solutions where a hole has to be drilled in the cube, etc...

Also, being able to turn the cube on all 4 sides is a major plus.

I can't believe people have to actually be told this stuff. I don't know why you'd want to show up and not look/act like a model up-standing citizen.

I like it. Nice layout and I like the fact that you can search/browse conferences without having to log in.

Nice job.

I agree. Also, I'm hesitant to log in from work since we block twitter here and I don't want to hit the web filter.

Yeah, I thought that too... It might be a past/present kind of thing. Like, at the time the author was in China, he was making $5000/month and now that the article is published it's $5000/day.

Although, $5000/day seems a bit high, so I'm thinking it's a typo.

That's what happens when you encourage your employees to build things on their own. You have more failures than successes as far as products go.

Personally, I like that Google has these pet projects that they try out for a while and see if they work. Not everything you do is going to be successful.

I'll take my gmail/maps/apps/reader and be happy. And who knows, maybe in the near future they will come out with something new that I can't live without.
