This seems like a pretty good book, I bought the one I linked above, but reading isn't really my thing. I learn better through seeing.

Depends on how you learn, I think the videos are very informative. They're not going to teach you everything, so buying a book or two would help a lot.

The book is kind of dated, so I would recommend looking for something more recent.

Awesome, great work.

GoofyGewber··on Ask HN: Review My Product - DropClock.com

I really like the website, theres only a few things that bug me. 1. The Facebook and Twitter icons, on the logo are so small, that they're pointless. Add the Social buttons somewhere else. 2. The buttons have no hover effect. It's not needed, but it makes the website look a little more professional 3. Under the "More about our company" section, the Safari screenshot is highly outdated, which makes your product look outdated. Like the idea, like the website. Good job.

GoofyGewber··on My beta design - www.craftepee.com

Looks pretty good. Theres only two things that I personally don't like. The text under the CraftEppe logo is kind of hard to read, both on the top and bottom logo. And, the oval that appears when hovering on the navigation looks weird to me.

GoofyGewber··on Ask HN: Which blogs/websites do you regularly read?

Reddit, Gizmodo, Engadget, VentureBeat, Hacker News, Lifehacker, etc.

GoofyGewber··on Show HN: my first app - Is there a Giants game today?

Simple, but still pretty cool.

I almost never buy Android apps. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Play store doesn't have gift cards like the iTunes store has. That's why I buy Apps on my iPod, because I don't need to put a credit card on the account, I can just go to the nearest 7-11 and purchase a gift card.

Putting ads on the app is defiantly not a good idea. Maybe create a free version with some of the features lacking. Or, just try to advertise your app more, and maybe you'll get lucky.

GoofyGewber··on New Kickstarter record: $2.1mil for Wasteland 2 RPG

That's crazy!

GoofyGewber··on Show HN my weekend project - Browse Netflix Watch Instant faster

That's really cool! The magnifying glass looks kind of like it doesn't belong. But, that's just my opinion.

GoofyGewber··on Idea: Web based Skype client.

I would love if they did!

GoofyGewber··on Ask HN: What's the best Domain Registrar?

http://lithiumhosting.com/ Love it.

GoofyGewber··on Hey HN, I am looking for feedback

Looks pretty good!

GoofyGewber··on Ask HN: Join a small startup or a medium sized one

The pay doesn't really matter, as long as you like what you do. The startup is a great choice in my opinion because once it becomes bigger (If it ever does) you have a high chance of being a top position and eventually end up making more money than the bigger company would pay you anyway.

How much more would you say it would cost to live in the Bay Area, because even if you're making more, it's going to cost more to live there.

GoofyGewber··on Ask HN: Do you still watch the news?

Yeah, as soon as i'm done with school I'm just going to have internet, with Netflix and other services. Land lines and Cable are a waste of money.

GoofyGewber··on Ask HN: Do you still watch the news?

I used to do that every night, but now I lay in bed and just read articles on my tablet.

GoofyGewber··on Ask HN: Most affordable method to host a lot of files

I like your idea, and the website! S3 is probably your best way to go.
