I wouldn't underestimate the value of the gmail API and set of mailbox migration tools. That and a promise of three-nines uptime.<p>I'm guessing they're going to make it easy to tie GMail into existing enterprise systems.<p>All in all, I think it's a very compelling offering.<p>

Sometimes it's not extremely expensive to get started, but it very time consuming. Does that mean you’re more/less committed than another entrepreneur who has spent a ton of money getting a company rolling? I think a person’s answer to these questions can tell what they value more. Additionally, I always have a hard time considering someone to be uncommitted to a startup if they are working a separate full time job to support their family. Whenever I come across that argument, I can’t help but think: Just imagine what I’ll be able to do when I’m working 100 hours/week for my company rather than 60 for my company and 40 for another…

It's only tested in firefox 2 and it's not quite how I would like it to work but it's a start. I'll hopefully update it later to work better. <p>Just add the following URL as a bookmark:<p>javascript:(function(){var d=document;var b=d.body;var c=b.insertBefore(d.createElement('center'),b.firstChild); var dv=c.appendChild(d.createElement('iframe'));dv.id='ifrm'; dv.height='30%';dv.width='100%';dv.src='http://news.ycombinator.com/submit'; d.getElementById('ifrm').scrollIntoView(); })(); <p>Let me know if it works.

When they bought Odeo back from investors they admitted that they werent they're own users and that this had been a mistake. Selling on to someone passionate about podcasting makes a lot more sense. Personally I would love to see the performance and internationalisation of twitter being concentrated on more isntead.

It depends a lot on the site. Theres far too many sites that just add community features when its not needed. My friends are on facebook and twitter, they dont need to be anywhere else. <p>So judge it based on your app. Is the hassle of adding your friends to the site going to be far smaller than the benefit?

The most insightful statement IMO: &#34;If you're going into business with somebody that you've never actually worked on a project with, I'd recommend starting on something a little easier and smaller before creating the next Google.&#34;<p>I've often wondered what the difference is between working on an open source project on the side and working on a startup. The differences seem to be in expectation and in emphasis (what users want rather than simply scratching a personal itch). Now it starts to appear that there is a continuum between the two. Perhaps an open-source project is a good way to find co-founders.

ideas.yc.com. <p>we've all got more ideas than time, and it's a shame to let them languish in our individual imaginations. so how about creating a public clearinghouse for ideas where they're a) subject to reddit-esque competition, and b) &#34;open source&#34; -- available for anyone to pursue.<p>it'd be a meme pool.

I agree with the post. When an idea is new there is a tendency to feel like it needs protecting. If you're serious about it, though, and get your hands dirty with the details of implementing whatever it is, NDA's seem more and more silly. By the time you get a real good idea working you won't care if the whole world knows. You know that as simple as the idea sounded, it's really thousands of hours of blood sweat dollars and tears. You'll say- &#34;oh, you want to do it also? go right ahead and try.&#34;

If it is an excellent tool by itself, then it has a much better chance of acceptance. That is, if you yourself can't stop using it regardless of who else is using it, it is a stronger product. del.icio.us is like that- I started using it because it was a nice central place to store bookmarks regardless of who else was using it. It was only later that I started noticing how many others were bookmarking and even started using it as a search engine. Flickr- same thing. Youtube & myspace- still kind of the same- say I was the first user of youtube, I may still like it so that I can put my videos in one place and shoot off an email to my buddies to go have a look. The point is the tool better be compelling without a community or you'll never be able to grow a community. Even here the content coming from one poster is compelling (enough) even before a dozen users started commenting and posting, etc. Focus on the tool. I couldn't agree more.

This was in fact a bug. It's now fixed. Sorry about that.<p>If anyone cares, it was because the http server is also written in Arc, on top of MzScheme, and we misread the MzScheme doc on make-limited-input-port to believe that limit-k referred to k of bytes. In fact it refers to bytes. So while we thought we were capping http requests at 2 meg, we were in fact capping them at 2k.

There are positions opening up for physics Ph.Ds in electronics (especially now that the size of the technology is becoming smaller and more apparently susceptible to the laws of quantum physics) There may not be a ton of opportunities now, but once nanotech starts moving out of the labs and into more applications I'd say the market will grow significantly.

Paul Graham also stated that Silicon Valley is impossible to be cloned in Europe. That doesn't mean successful start-ups can pop-out in Europe. And they have, Skype, AllPeers, Six Apart, NetVibes, Fon etc... Successful single founders is necessary to encompass a lot more characteristics. It's difficult enough to find 2 motivated people to take risk starting up, finding 2-in-1 it will be a lot harder. But if they try to avoid it, althout they don't exclude it, it doesn't mean it can happen at YC, or someone on his/her own.

yeah agree. Another cool metric is &#34;if your idea can be given away by telling someone&#34; then it doesn't have enough depth&#34; Most simple things are way more complicated when u do them - and thats in the thought of the implementation. <p>Just look at eBay - a platform for auctioning goods. The depth comes in generating a trust system (how?) then making it easy to list, and for people to send each other goods. Then each of these ideas can be fleshed out. So its not really one idea - its a whole bunch including design decisions, customer acquisition strategies, page element preferences, copy, bug fixing - a whole load.

From following the usual blogs such as Mashable and TechCrunch, I expected some other startups to be included. A few of those 25 happen to be dealing with advertising, targeted or otherwise. It's interesting when a lot of these startups are built on the notion of promoting and selling others' products. Perhaps there will be a steady decline in companies that actually create something new to offer. :)

The difference is that it's completely serverside, which allows developers to create &#34;real&#34; webapplications with deep database connections and complete server rights, and not just fun clientside widgets. The Ajax interface is automatically generated so the clientside experience is a webtop in appearence, but not a limited in reality.

I think that's the point Allen is trying to make - if you're trying to build a sustainable company in its own right i.e. not looking to have Google acquire it, then it takes time. For example take Facebook - they have possibly the most viral product ever seen on the web and after two years they still don't know what their killer revenue stream is and neither have they IPO'ed. This stuff takes time!

Paul Graham also stated that Silicon Valley is impossible to be cloned in Europe. That doesn't mean successful start-ups can't pop-out in Europe. And they have, Skype, AllPeers, Six Apart, NetVibes, Fon etc... Successful single founders is necessary to encompass a lot more characteristics. It's difficult enough to find 2 motivated people to take risk starting up, finding 2-in-1 it will be a lot harder. But if they try to avoid it, althout they don't exclude it, it doesn't mean it can happen at YC, or someone on his/her own.

I love how the first 18 months of fark's existence consisted of that picture of the squirrel with giant nuts.

Marked up the article because it's hilarious, but honestly I don't know what I'm getting out of it. It's a panel of 6 people who won the lottery [meaning, in Paul's nomenclature, only 1 or 2 were actually trying to actually build wealth or solve a difficult problem]. Well, there is a lesson- be responsive to your audience, and when they start coming in droves do what they want, and then sell advertising.

Yeh I posted it mostly for the laughs. Its great to see that they've all become succesful by doing what they enjoy. Theres so many great quotes in this video, too many to post them all here.<p>&#34;So it all got started when a friend emailed me a picture of a squirrel with giant nuts..&#34;<p>&#34;I knew it had taken off when my dad was addicted to hotornot&#34;<p>&#34;We were just two geeks who wanted to meet hot chicks&#34;

I should add that this post is a bit hard to follow, but I think it makes some excellent points. Ajit's earlier post on Mobile AJAX adds some context: http://opengardensblog.futuretext.com/archives/2006/03/mobile_web_20_a_2.html

I believe I mentioned this in the other thread, but I'd like to see my comment after submitting it instead of it just jumping to the top of the page.<p>An ajax implementation for the comment voting would be nice too. This was mentioned along with some other great ideas, but it's something I'd personally love to see.

I like this idea but I think success may be limited to games that are highly visual in nature. In fact, the same may be said of startups in general: video is better than images and images are better than text. BTW, the Google talk by Luis on these sorts of games is a must-see: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8246463980976635143

Have you discovered an upper bound? The commonly held belief is that people over X (where 30 &#60; X 35?) can't start startups because they have kids and a mortgage, or they just aren't in-tune with what's hip. Curiously, that excludes people who have &#34;been there and seen that&#34;, the best current example being AJAX. Also, those who have taken a few more trips around the Sun also may recognize niches that 19-25 years would never see. My impression is that Y-Combinator is an attractor for the younger entrepreneur.<p>Full disclosure: I'm in the range above, planning to start a company, and not trolling for Y-Combinator dollars.

He claims that algorithms are not so important, but they are what propelled Google above Yahoo and co. Reddit today is very much in the vulnerable position that Yahoo was in. Someone with a recommendation engine that works well could pull the rug from under their feet.

this seems like one of those ideas that's obvious when someone points it out to you: someday interfaces will have better scenery so we can recognize where we are in our data.<p>but this particular one seems pretty counterintuitive. it will be deeply weird if in the future we're all sifting through little piles of fractal amoebae to find our files.

IANL but I'm pretty sure YC funding is not enough. But I've heard there are ways to get into (or rather stay in) the US if you go on to raise larger amounts of funding.

You can get a 90 visa waiver if you're from most EU countries. You'll need to prove that you intend to return to the EU afterwards, for example you'll need to be employed by an EU company. I'm unsure about a more long term solution. I've heard of some people getting employed by friends in the US in order to get a visa. Might be worth looking into.

A similar users list. Show me all the users who like the same stories as me and comment in all the same places. I've already noticed some users who are similar to me and a nice system for making sure I don't overlook any would be great.
