agreed. this is one of my pet peeves with PHP also.

Austin and the Fridge team are super sharp. I'd say this was a great move for Google+.

Congrats!

Wow. I totally forgot about SoulSeek but I remember a time when it was the best p2p app.

I've only explored it a little, but this product just seems like a mashup of Muxtape and Facebook-style chat.

What makes Turntable.fm chat interesting is that everyone is listening to and talking about the same song.. you don't get that here. It seems like people are just grouped by genres, but everyone can be clicking on and playing different songs.

We are.

As far as I know, most e-mail products focus only on sending e-mails and not receiving them. Mailgun works both ways.

I did a GWU in Palo Alto last week and it was a cool experience. The group of people was interesting - it included YC alums, VC's, and engineers and designers of all kinds, but most importantly everyone was welcoming and genuinely interested in meeting new people.

under your picture on the left hand side of your Dashboard, click the "Edit my profile" button. perhaps we should make this more obvious.

not sure what you mean - please shoot me a line at ryan@tutorspree

we haven't really expanded into the DC area yet but we're working on it.

edit: oops. you found an IE7 bug. thanks!

Facebook and Twitter just help Quora verify your identity, while also ensuring new users have nice profile pictures. They still have to create their own unique account for you, which is why they want your e-mail.

I disagree. I think it's impressive that they were able to get such a large part of our YC class hooked on using their product, especially since everyone is super busy working on their own startup.

The YC W11 class has been using Convore nonstop. It's pretty amazing.

this is really impressive, especially considering that they have just a couple of engineers

awesome, thanks for signing up alan.

being a part of YC is really amazing. my experience with dreamit was cool too, though i wasn't a founder while i was there so it was different

I met aaron and josh through HN, actually

i'm a huge fan the new redesign also. great stuff, guys.

No one ever claimed that Twitter was a technological breakthrough, though. People are saying that about Qwiki.

I always wondered about this as a kid. I'm surprised by how simple it is.

Congrats guys. First Yahoo Sports, now WSJ.. these partnerships are huge.

How did you get 16,000+ tutors signed up? That's an impressive number.

Did anything come up regarding DDG not really showing Mahalo pages in results?

I leave it so people can understand why my responses are so brief.

biggest competitor = basecamp

A lot of your points sounded more like i-banking culture vs startup culture to me, but those are two very separate worlds.

An opinion piece from someone who's actually worked in the NY startup scene would have been a lot more enlightening.

But best of luck either way.
