DISQUS

This one is crazy (Especially the finale at 09:50) and lasts nearly 1 hour: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5gHiNgSQnM

It was nice of you to hire craigslist's UI designer. :)

At least, please remove this font which was made for paper, and use arial or verdana which are appropriate for screens. :)

But what if Facebook did it on purpose to not impact the performances? As much information as the previous information may have been difficult to manage from the technical point of view. Do not remember they want to reach "real time".

If we get in the live feed what we have in the "new profil" (I love how they aggregate), it will rock...

Has some insider some information?

Also the big issue is that some journalist working for newspapers write this information. And there is no follow up and/or correction...

The big issue with Techcrunch is that they prefer to publish quickly rather to wait 1 or 2 days to verify the information. A shame.

<joke>C'est pour un lunch americain (1 sandwich en 15 min) ou europeen (2 heures dans un bon resto)?</joke>

Le plus drole est la derniere phrase de la presentatrice.

La realisation de la video est incroyable... comme quoi, il y a encore des gens qui ont de l'argent et qui ne comptent pas. :)

I am Swiss and worked in the headquarter of a fortune 50 American company. What is the big difference between European and US employees?

Amercian employees spend a lot more time at work than European ones but.... (gentle remark) their time is more a "presence" time. Their productivity rate is usually lower. This is true in many industries.

That said: the fact that (1) social security is low in US and (2) that many people give hugh amount of money to companies without futures are the 2 keys that make people more willing to take the risk of entrepreneurship in the US.

@loic: en lisant cette article tres interessant, tu comprendras qui est le veritable coupable: http://www.econlib.org/library/Columns/y2008/Ja...

En une phrase: "Good news is no news". Pour preuve: le prix du petrole qui grimpe c'est une catastrophe, quand il baisse c'est egalement un catastrophe...
Dans notre sphere professionnelle, Arrington y a participe, malheureusement, tres activement avec son deadpool et sa page speciale "layoff"... Du reste, je prefere la lecture d'autres sites depuis que Ducan est parti de TC.

Le plus amusant: les journalistes ont cree une serie de psychoses... qui ont fait fuir les annonceurs payant leur salaire... des masochistes... ;)

@Duncan: I really miss you on Techcrunch. The new writters are totally disconnected to the market they are supposed to analyze....

Loic, we all appreciate your transparence and you are really an amazing guy: during bad time most of the people are just staying hidden. You are a true leader: you face your obligations. Not so many Fortune 500 CEOs are like you....

I think it is a bad thing to link these layoffs to the financial crisis. *There is no link!* The root cause is for sure elswhere. It can be technical, it can be income growth, team members casting, etc.

Like the Onasis, the people staying positive and with a good business will start their success story during this uncertain period.

Remove the emotional part of the journalists propagenda and only trust the fundamentals!

We (European) are still here but we are all suffering from sterility now....

Sorry to tell you that you are totally wrong.

With this strategy, you have to make a different job: software editor. You are no more a web developper. The project cycles are different. The jobs and costs are different. You lose flexibility (which increase the costs) and the markets are more segmented which force you to dev. specifically for each device.

Last point: the environment is close and owned by one company. The web is based mainly on open standards.

With web application you can reach HTC, Nokia, SonyEricson, Apple, etc. owners.

This site is a joke: the party name must be unique in space and time (during 60 days?)...... Do not waste your time with it. Use http://www.doodle.ch instead.

I think it is a really good one: Creativity comes from constraint. This kind of "making of" was a really interesting idea in fact... :)

This one is for you! ;)

Waooww I love these CEOs. You should only ask them questions about how to use powerpoint, how to do a budget in Excel, etc.

For technical questions, ask the tech guys....

This reminds me one must-do we had when I started developping websites:
A web page must not be scrolled down to ease the user's life! hehe

In Asia (bangkok, Tokyo and other Hyper cities) it is really cool to have clothes with the nazi cross (and it is really different from the Hindu symbol).
Even the most extrem guy would never dare to wear such a cloth in the streets in Europe.

It is only a matter of references and perception...

I think this guy hired the designer of craigslist....

They surely did not do that before for performance reasons.

Keeping a tree structure is more ressource demanding than a simple comment-response structure.

They may have found a solution now.
