@shlominissan - why no plans to monetize? (I voted for you based solely on that comment, among others). And how does it compare to some of the paid versions? Tnx!

@francescobovoli - we are already getting some interest from journalists that want to use it for investigative / data reporting, which is a great use case. Also from recruiters and content marketers.

This looks really cool. But a lot of the features you offer I can get for a lot less money using a combo of SaneBox and Streak. Why should I use this instead of those tools if I primarily need reminders, variables inserted into my mail merges? (Hint - please sell me on MixMax!) Thanks!

Cool product! We need to add you to our Drone Startups DB - http://drones-startups.silk.co/. Can you upgrade the camera to higher grade for additional capabilities?

You can also use it paired with other products like Import.io and CrowdFlower to extract or clean data, if you want to create things beyond what you might have in your simple spreadsheet.

This is super slick for Twitter. I can't tell, though - does it automatically optimize images for FB, G+ and LinkedIn in the same stroke? That was one of my big problems before. Thanks!

We've been training teams on Silk for the past 3-4 months and we love working with them. (Disclosure - I work at Silk, too, and and am a former BusinessWeek editor).

This is great stuff. Smartphones are basically smartmed devices waiting for the right inputs. When will I be able to use the service in the U.S. for remote eye exams and screenings?

Read the first version. It's a great book, really eye-opening and helped me not only think about how to draw people in but also how to get them into the habit of using a product.

You can never get enough of these. We have looked at most of them in building stuff for our site and the free JS ones are getting really, really good.

It this device also could handle cardio stuff well, I'd be in. I really don't want a separate device for cardio and strength

I can't wait to try this. Where do you source the mentors from?

How does the embed process work on my domain? Or do I need to run the software myself? It looks beautiful, BTW.

I drink Nitro-brews at Thirsty Bear all the time. This looks perfect for home brew.

This looks amazing. Even better would be one that can do the same for families - maybe have a teacher travel with them, and family friendly accomodations.

This looks interesting. Is there an app yet? I could definitely see using this.
