ulfstein··on Ask YC: Hosting costs...
How about MediaTemple - I've found them to be quite reasonable.
ulfstein··on Ask YC: how to go about setting up my own online store
Hi,

no, the shop isn't massively specialized but I think it would be too much to comfortably take on with Shopify (where I am currently setting up another store).

With regard to placement agencies, are you able to point me in the direction of any such agencies?

Thanks very much.

ulfstein··on Ask YC: decent JavaScript resource and reference sites?
Wow! Thanks!!
ulfstein··on Ask YC: which video sharing service?

ulfstein··on Ask YC: finding hackers to help with charity work
That's how I ended up with the current site - unfortunately I've got very little aptitude in that direction.
ulfstein··on Ask YC: finding hackers to help with charity work
Good idea, however, after looking into posting on Craigslist... "all job ads must offer monetary compensation -- no unpaid internships, barters, deferred pay, etc."
ulfstein··on Ask YC: What options are available for sharing ad revenue with users?
Thanks for the feedback everyone - some nice leads.
ulfstein··on Recommendations for email programs
I can highly recommend Thunderbird. It's open source and I've been running it solidly for a number of years now.
ulfstein··on Is there a resource where one can find sample 'Terms of Agreement' between partners?
I'm setting up a loose partnership in order to explore an idea. Having proper contracts drawn up at this stage is a bit pricey so we're thinking of using Terms of Agreement for now.
ulfstein··on How do you mock-up / sketch your web app?
I use Adobe InDesign - it allows you to put together a library of symbols and shapes that you can re-use to build your mockup very quickly. Once you've put in a little bit of work getting these elements together you're good to go. It also allows you to add additional pages, auto page number, import images... you name it. Probably not what Adobe had in mind, nor is it a cheap option but it's certainly versatile.
ulfstein··on startup matchmaker: build a service to recommend and facilitate startup mergers to make it more likely they would succeed
I did come across such a site but can't remember where - didn't bookmark it as it hadn't been executed very well.
ulfstein··on Crowdsourcing: a million heads is better than one
I agree. I've not yet had a closer look a the sites mentioned but am wondering whether any of them might employ such a system.
