All trades would be real, auto posted trades from linked brokerage account.

The data would be entirely made up of trades, no opinions, comments and noise.

Searching would be possible by any criteria such as sector, market cap... To find investors who invest the way you'd like to.

We hide how much you have invested by not disclosing how many positions you purchase.

You'll see trades from people you followed: what's being bought or sold, at what price and how that trader has performed in the past.

I just bought this. Every time someone connects to your hotspot, you both get some free extra data. Also it never expires, and the bandwidth is tied to the account, not the device so I can my account on someones else's device as well. This sounds like a winner.

The point though is that Khan is free, is a non-for profit and is more than just sitting and watching videos. They are followed by exercises which track the progress of the user and can even be reviewed by teachers if a teacher chooses to do the teacher account - student accounts setup. All of that is very valuable and very disruptive to something like Mathalicious, a for-profit site not many have heard of.

It's actually awesome. Invite please....

Pinterest layout is certainly not something that was just invented. Not sure why it's being attributed to them so much. Only because they are the most prominent example of it. I wrote a piece on raising money for web projects through crowdfunding in order to compete with the big guys and to validate ideas: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3687835

For big ideas that others clearly understand to be problems and of which investors are afraid to get in on there always is... crowdfunding! I wrote about the pros and cons of raising money through crowdfunding to pay for your startup here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3687835

I added some of my thoughts on how to make crowdfunding work as a method of generating a seed round for a new start-up. Curious to see what others think...

Teachers can either make the accounts with a temp password that students can reset once they log in AND/OR they can give the class their username on the site. Students can then go to that username and request an account.

Also, there is a demo here: http://www.schoolbasic.com/demo.html

This is supposed to be a crossover vehicle that Elon Musk claims will be "faster then a Porsche 911 and roomier than an Audi Q7". Also he claims the most interesting view of it is with its doors open (a reference to something rumored to be called Falcon doors, some sort of folding doors).

The next model after this is the one he wants to make for like $15000-$20000

They seem to think Model X will be very well received.

This is great.

Flickr lets each user darken 10 photos. Apparently a bunch of users have darkened all of the photos in the White House photo stream.

Gruber blew it. This is a bunch of nonsense.

RYAN CARSON this is lame in that its an expensive version of http://www.codecademy.com

Also you are using the same videos from ThinkVitamin which provide good introductory knowledge and that's it.

Codeacademy makes you actually code and had badges long before you guys.

This is a repackaging of the thinkvitamin website from Carsonified. These are literally the same videos I already downloaded from ThinkVitamin. Same talking heads, same, same...

I hope NYU-Poly wins the bid but the culture of innovation and entrepreneurship is not quite there yet like it is in places like Stanford. (even though that's in the school's marketing efforts)

PG.... I believe that this article displays a problem in culture with NYC. Here there's a culture of complainers, while in the valley there is a culture of do-ers. I mean this article mentions why you didn't give an introduction as to what Y combinator is. For any real hacker, that would have been a waste of time just like anything else that is similarly a Google/Wikipedia search away.

The event was great. We are trying here in NYC, but one of the largest problems here is because (as you said) startups are not culturally accepted as the norm, its harder to get word of mouth about your product going. Therefore allow me to plug spottmusic.com here. :)

Thoughts appreciated....

thanks Tom

30comments and 81 points. what are you talking about?

this messed up some stuff for us due to partial reliance on this at www.spottmusic.com. had to work to repair the database this morning. not fun.

This thing builds a profile for you and the ones you follow containing all music shared on twitter from Spotify.

This app (Spottmusic.com aka Spot Twitter Music) builds a profile for you and the ones you follow with all music shared on twitter from Spotify.

I'd make data with a meaning like on listered.com, structured data,searchable and sortable not static text

This is great man. If you could add the bottom-sticking menu bar with icons as one of the controls this would be really grand.

Of course Khan lectures are not all encompassing just like his lecture on IPOs aren't but they provide a great deal of entry level knowledge.

If the author ever imagined that WW2 could be explained in one short Khan Academy video his expectations were wrong not Khan Academy itself.

Personally, I believe he is a spiteful fool afraid of a revolution in education.

if logged in you click your username in the top bar. Then you have options, like Account, Lists, Add Item, Profile....

So you go to Lists. or follow this link http://listered.com/users/edit.php/

Under "Lists" you can create a list and the properties of each item in that list.

You then add items according to those properties. Look at the example: http://listered.com/view/cat/Articles/

Listered is actually my website. And the whole point is that it stores data as objects. You make up with a list consists of by defining the properties of the items in the list and then always enter data in that list according to that blueprint.

I never heard of thingist till now but it seems like its lists of text?

around 9-10pm ET. Check twitter for messages of desperation :-)
