I wonder if this is going to be used instead of a whiteboard in coding interviews :)


A coding interview should best be done a keyboard...my opinion.



About "everything we improved there or modified, we submitted back as open source", the GPL doesn't let you redistribute modified code and only release the modified code unfortunately. I guess "we will release the app you saw as well" may mean that they'd open source the whole app and thus be compliant.

Also the fact that the company was once also known as "Wixpress" is easy to verify [1], not sure why he would contest that.

What an airhead. It's all about feelings and impressions and mutual admiration! No, it's not about those things. You violated a license, and you got called on it. Fix your shit, apologize, and move on. Don't dump a PR load on us without bothering to learn and understand what you did wrong.


You can use Docady's scanner that also does OCR and recognizes its content. It then stores your documents and encrypts them. At the moment it's available on iOS, but should be available soon in Android too.

(Full Disclosure: I work at Docady and part of its team)


I highly recommend watching The Human Experiment documentary about chemicals, toxins and the chemical industry strong lobby. It's available on Netflix.




I've been looking for a Doodle replacement. This looks promising.


Shameless plug for my app. http://slotted.co

Many people use it for one-on-one meetings like office hours. But you can make any kind of signup sheet you can imagine. Very geek friendly UI.


Moreover, the guy behind Free Mobile is also behind an Israeli mobile network operator called Golan Telecom. They have been game changers in Israel as well, providing unlimited call/text/data package for 99 NIS/month (about 26 USD). This package also features unlimited calls to more than 50 countries. Recently they even cut their prices in half (49 NIS/month), for 6 months for new subscribers.


I didn't new that. But he is also behind a very big hosting company who changed the game (dedibox). He was the first to introduce cheap dedicated hosting serveur with high speed connection and unlimited data.

He is behind kima venture.

He is also the founder of a Computer Science school, soon two.


He also co-owns one of the most famous french newspaper. And was well known for bringing defamation lawsuits to journalists and newpapers. He also got most of his early wealth from running adult services.

In short he is not without controversies.


Crashing on my mac as well (OS X 10.8.2, Chrome 23.0.1271.95).


Terrific job, thanks.



That's great feedback Chelsea - we're not mixing really since your activity is 100% confidential (no one sees it) - we're just giving you the tools to see which jobs your social connections can help you get (your friends and family are even more likely to recommend you than a random contact).

By the way, we also let you connect with LinkedIn so you can add that layer as well - and we fill the gap between Facebook and LinkedIn - you may be connected to a friend on Facebook that's connected to a potential reference on LinkedIn - we bridge networks to let you uncover those.
