officemedium··on Follow a millionaire entrepreneur as he makes his website wildly successful.
A site with a list of other websites isn't going to be worth a million dollars. It won't be worth a thousand dollars.

Google lists other sites but they have a little more kick behind it.

officemedium··on Tell HN: Meet Cloudomatic, an easy way to discover SaaS apps. (StartupWeekend)

officemedium··on Ask HN: Review my lead-mining webapp, LeadNuke
I'd recommend making the design a little more "welcoming". It's very bare and plain - makes the site look cheap which reflects on the service. I'd also recommend simplifying the information and features on the home page - try to really get across what your app does, what it will help us do, and why we should use it, as quickly and easily as possible.
officemedium··on Ask HN: What payment gateways do you use for your app?
Authorize.net's CIM with custom app for flexible rebilling.

officemedium··on Ask HN: Subscription Payment Gateway?
authorize.net's ARB or CIM
officemedium··on Ask HN: Review my idea
it can't be too productive spending your time watching other people be productive..
officemedium··on Why WordPress Should Not Have Won the Open Source CMS Award
Drupal should have won. It should win everything.

Drupal can create boring blogs like wordpress...but what about it's power to create something like...umm...a SaaS Business Social Collaborative Application?

100% Drupal Goodness

officemedium··on Ask HN: Review our startup - EventGel
The interface makes me feel very "uncomfortable" and a little confused. You should consider laying things out a little nice - perhaps side by side?

The logo / menu / page title instantly create some confusion and clutter. The timeline doesn't look too user-friendly either.

I'm just commenting on the interface though, I haven't looked at the functionality too much yet.

officemedium··on Ask HN: What The Hell Does Sharepoint Do?
No, I'm sorry to say that it doesn't. Yet. There's a list of additions lined up for the future (even though I know that doesn't help you very much).
officemedium··on Ask HN: Joomla, Drupal, Wordpress, or ExpressionEngine?
Drupal, especially if you have any development experiences or real customization needs. It can be modeled to do anything - yes, I mean anything at all. I've developed some amazing applications using Drupal - not just the typical 'blog' like site that the others generally create. So it depends on your needs. Drupal also has, what I think, is the best community out there - tons and tons of modules, themes, support, customizations, tutorials, etc.
officemedium··on Ask HN: What The Hell Does Sharepoint Do?
Haha..

If you're into Drupal, check out our initial case study on the development. We've put together some interesting innovation for the platform.

officemedium··on Ask HN: What The Hell Does Sharepoint Do?
I really don't want to mention our product again on the same page, but you mentioned Drupal, which is what we built our, I guess I have to say, Sharepoint alternative: OfficeMedium ( I won't spam another link on the same page )

I think we're on the same page though: Simplicity is key.

Drupal is the best...

officemedium··on Ask HN: What The Hell Does Sharepoint Do?
Too many? I don't like to sound like I'm "spamming" out my product, but I believe it's designed in such a simple manner than anything included that you aren't interested in using, sits quietly in the background.
