Off topic - Does anyone here remember the post someone wrote awhile here about how they got a boat load of hits by basically paying attention to what was popular here and then writing about it? Thanks in advance...


I think I understand what you said :)


LOL - sorry I am drunk..... Dang - I wish someone would remember....


I agree -the interface is super clean.


Why does college cost so much?


I'm not sure if this whether you're being serious or not. If you aren't, than could you please explain the relation between ebooks and college? I see the knowledge-is-pricey relation, but I find it weak. Writing a book and building a school, hiring staff, etc. is not a strong comparison.

If you were being serious, than the reason college is costly is because everything that goes into me being able to attend a college costs money.


the author uses visits as a metric..... Compares Pinterest uniques to Linkedin's uniques....

Worked just fine for me - posted screenshot here http://www.facebook.com/seanmalarkey


this is pretty fascinating.


Nice work - I like it!


Huge thanks to the hacker news community. I posted this earlier today as I normally do with my posts hoping to get 20-30 hits and ended up shocked when it climbed up to number 10 on the main page. Over 1,000 hits today from hacker news - muchas gracias.


Serious? Withdraw at any time? I usually pull funds out as soon as they come in, but hadnt considered them withdrawing funds w/o permission.

I need to look into that more. Maybe open a 2nd checking account somewhere else and tie that in.


no, they cannot withdraw from a linked account without your permission from an initiated transfer. any funds you leave in your temporary paypal holding are theirs for the taking, of course.


If they decide to reverse a payment to your paypal account and you do not have enough funds, it will start to transfer from your bank account tied to the paypal account, without warning or consultation.

There are stories about this all over the web. You essentially agree to it in their TOS.
