for an enterprise application, that seems just about right in line.


I don't understand why there is an exclamation in point in the article title and he has the price in bold red letters, yet at the end of the article he goes on to say that it's priced just a bit more than two other competing products. I say a bit, because if you are in the market for $100k analytics suites, what's another $50k?


This is great business, right now I have a lot of confidence in you guys.


Thank you. Pay pal should be obsolete now.


Any tips on finding a good place for a custom $99 logo?


I've used http://www.logodesigncreation.com multiple times and they've always provided a reliable, consistent service.

If your local agency that charges $3k for a logo is Ruth Chris Steakhouse, these guys are McDonalds - and I mean that as a compliment.

(No affiliation except as a customer)


Try logo.com


That's... brilliant!


Well you would rephrase it. You could say, "We conveniently have a service center on Main St." (it knows you leave work at 5) "For your convenience, We're open until 8!"

You can let the customer put 2 and 2 together.


I recently bought a mac book air with Lion after my 3rd problem with the screen on my work provided Lenovo (T410s).

I've been using VMWare Fusion to develop. For the most part, I've been really loving it. The performance is pretty good, and it's nice to have osx for my non .net stuff. However there are a few areas I ran into problems. First I found I had to disable hardware acceleration in order to get WPF controls work. This has impacted rendering performance more than i'd wish. Second, and more painful, I've had issues with USB devices working (again a problem with the VM). For the most part I can work around these issues, but the work arounds have impacted me in undesired ways (for instance the application i'm working on requires a dongle for security, i've been working around it by leaving a hack in the code... but once I accidentally checked it in..). Finally, and probably my most petty (but most frustrating issue) is there is no home/end key (though i did find fn left and fn right work)


The thing is, while it is a lot of data in the grand scheme of things it is a fairly trivial amount of data. Terrabye hard drives can be had for less than $100 today.


Of course, I don't mean to say it is a difficult amount of data to store.


It's fun to think that while foursquare may seem fairly trivial today, 100 years from now, it's historical record.


This is where I see value in color.com (seeing photos of the past at your current location), but it's sort of a chicken-and-egg problem.


Ah, I see... so there's no one specific method to success?
