I'm a Google Adwords certified individual and I can help you to promote your startup/product with Adwords. I can also fine tune your existing campaigns. If you're bootstrapped and can't spend a fortune on adwords, I would love to help you achieve your goals within your means. I'm also very proficient with Google Analytics, Mixpanel and KISSmetrics.
If the above sounds interesting but you had something more on your mind, I should note that, I'm willing to learn new things and I'm always trying to broaden my horizon :) Right now, I'm learning Javascript.
What they provided wasn't exactly 'proof'. Without any conclusive ground they accused other lyrics sites. Linking to Open Site Explorer and saying they they think some links might be suspicious hardly counts as proof, IMO.
Besides, now that the matter has been brought under Google's attention, they'll of course penalize the other lyric sites too, if any violation is found. But in case of RG, it was all out in the open and I think that's why action was quick.
I'm happy to see this pop up on HN since HFT is something I've been looking into lately. If you're interested to dig deeper into HFT and algorithmic trading, 'Inside the Black Box' will be a good read. Link: www.amazon.com/Inside-Black-Box-Quantitative-Frequency/dp/1118362411
If you want to take your reading further, there are some great recommendations on the review section. And just to get an insider look into quant traders and the effect HFT can have on the market, I also recommend these two short documentaries made by the dutch national TV:
Interesting question: your old Developer account actually had more limitations than the new Free Trial accounts. For example, you couldn't have made outbound voice calls to regular numbers via PSTN.
BrainTree has been bootstrapped since it's beginning until October, 2012 when they raised $35 million. And the guys at 37 Signals sure love BrainTree since, that is what they use to process payments for 37 Signals. Also, BrainTree was featured in their famous 'Bootstrapped, Profitable and Proud' series http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2800-bootstrapped-profitable-...
I've been trying to come to Finland to study. I became very interested about Finland after I saw some of the the things happening in Aalto University(Startup Saunna, Venture Garage and such). But my Residence Permit application was rejected last year and it was very frustrating. The rejection letter got lost in the mail and for the last six months my communication with the Finnish Immigration has been futile and I still don't know the reason of rejection.
Where are you now? It might be easier if you were to visit Finland first on a tourist visa and apply from here.
There's also been talk of having the Startup Life program (http://startuplife.fi/) take interns from abroad and get them to work for Finnish startups. That may be a good stepping stone for you. I'll ask around about it and get back to you via Twitter.
I'm in Bangladesh. I would've come to Finland on a tourist visa and apply from there, but looks like that is not allowed for my country. Do you think applying from any other EU countries can make things easier?
I would love to intern at a Finnish startup. I'll keep my eyes on twitter :)
Do you have any plans to open source this for people who wants to install Moot on their own server? As a forum junkie, I'm excited about Moot, but I hope you do understand that to be successful as a platform you have to give the option to self-host :)
Our infrastructure is built as a service. I totally understand that many people want to run their forum on their own network and that's totally ok. There's plenty of products out there servicing that market.
If you were to compare us to blogging companies we're more inline with tumblr than wordpress. We're a service that makes it simple for anyone to add forums and commenting.
Our service obviously isn't for everyone, but we feel like there is a large market for simple to set up and manage forums that can integrate with little to no technical knowledge or expertise.
No, it wasn't offensive to me and I'm a muslim. Just because something 'offended' you should not be the reason for somebody else to go to jail. He posted stuff on the internet, the people who got offended had the option not to see it.
