  • Hannah,

    One of my favorite ways to "back up" data is to arrange my data storage, such that I never have to back anything up. This method is not applicable in all cases, but I am suprised to find that it works out for about 90% of my data needs. For most of my data (addresses, documents) I store them on gmail under labels and storage based Gmail account names. I figure, Google is well positioned to reliabley deal with my backup needs :) At the same time, I have a local copy of most documents, should I need off-line access to them.

    This doesn't work as effectively for things like music and video yet but I figure that's only a matter of time. I also store my photos on a photo service, again, for me, for the sake of only having to manage a single sign-on, etc it's Google Picasaweb, but a lot of people like Flikr better.

  • Clearly I'm pretty out of the loop on this. I thought FFT2 was a version 2 Fast Forrier Transform algorithm.

    Hopeless nerd :|

  • Banu,

    I think your idea is totally cool.

    My mental block on this is that I have found that there is very little from popular culture that expresses my dream collage. If I were to use magazines for the collage, I don't think I could find much material.

  • Jim Rutler's patent class is truely da'bomb. I would recommend this class to anyone who has ever felt that they had a unique idea that could be (have been) patented. If for no other reason, this class is worthwhile merely to strengthen your appreciation for the value of your own ideas.

  • Shoot.

    Well, I'm a woman, but I need more stategic advice on how to get a raise rather than change my rate at the moment.

    Post again when you have a seminar more apropos to the worker bees of the world and I'll totally show up.

  • ...and just to confuse matters a little more, not all "black mold" is dangerous. What is more likely a problem is the quantity, virality, and tenacity of the mold in question. Basically the kind of condition that Brian is pointing out.

  • I'm potentially interested. I'll need to check out this book and see what it's all about to be sure, but I it's a great idea IMO.

  • I totally agree Jacob. There is a real shortage of this kind of space. I am interested in apartment based co-housing space in a kind of mixed commercial/residential space to possibly fill this kind of need plus a filling a need to have a more functional shared communal space for many kinds of social events.

  • Too bad Kate. Was looking forward to saying hello. But I understand that you would have a very long commute had you come. Look forward to seeing you at Joe's event.

  • Hey Shahin,

    If you can export this ppt slide into a pdf format, I think more users would view it and comment.

  • Well, "networking" can be exhausting. I agree. Biznik has definitely benefited from your participation, IMO. Best of luck in your "recovery".

  • Awe shucks you guys, yer the best. Thanks for the enthusiasm. It felt right like the right thing to do for me for sure. Seems like everyone's coming forward with their admitions of suckdom.

    ...ok so here's mine.

    I suck at: settling down on doing one thing.

    There are just too many interesting and important things to do, IMO.

    Some other suck ideas that I've allready heard during Biznik conversations (that I think fit for many of us): I suck at..."paying down my gigantic student loans".

    Come on people...you know who you are. It's time to represent!

  • You're welcome.

    I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's really unlike anything I've ever seen in terms of data presentation.

  • Roomba's are great. But they don't handle long hair very well at all. Big time design flaw!

  • I think that's a great point Mikelann.

  • I think the answer/question about free service (freebies) really depends on the service that you are providing.

    If you are fortunate enough to find yourself in an environment where the value of your service is well understood, then it's much easier to charge for service from the start. If you are trying to establish a business that is new or otherwise unconventional in the market, you may need to cultivate some degree of awareness via "hints" and freebies.
