For the last few months I have been seriously considering applying to be a TFA teacher. But this article has definitely opened my eyes quite a bit.

The fact that even the kids themselves realize the lack of quality in the teachers should be a huge indicator that something isn't right.

Super neat! And the downloads are in easily editable file format...You are awesome!

But seriously, thank you. This is going to make experience teaching the kids I'm mentoring so much better.

Pretty simple and easy to use. However as someone who uses teambox.com I find it lacking quite a bit. I use Team Box for features like the gant chart, other app integration, and team sharing.

I can definitely appreciate the work but I would need a better reason to switch.

Thank you for the awesomeness you have infused your post with. I began on the very road you've suggested not to take about a year, never got anywhere with programming. Got a 9-5 after graduating then finally started doing what you've suggested...

Quit my cube job, got a technical internship, and code practically every breathing moment I'm not at work...friends and fun...what are those again? :P

Super smart on AA's part, with this and their sponsorship of things like Startup American they're weaving themselves into the startup and hacker community. At the end of the day they're going to get way more than $10,000 worth of ideas/apps/products.

Here's an entire thread on this from a few weeks ago:

Check this out: http://hackdesign.org/ They have a weekly set of "lessons" they send you and the reads are all really good.

This is pretty exciting. I'm stuck with reading 20 year old books about typography and design and it's not exciting me anymore. I think this will be a boost to my design knowledge.

This is a great start; I will commence tonight! Thanks!

The idea is cool and the browser looks like it would have some pretty neat features. But realistically I feel like there's already Google plugins and extensions that will let me do the majority of things shown in the video.

Not to bash on the product, but the logo also reminds me of and makes me feel like I'm using a spam filled search engine that's going to add yet another junk tool bar to the top of my browser.

Definitely love the idea of revolutionizing the web browser though.

It's a cool looking alternative. But functionally I know it doesn't really meet my needs. The circles make the calendar view somewhat confusing to look at and I'm not a big fan of not being able to look at my tasks in order that they have to be completed within an individual group.

Cool idea just not very useful for me personally.

Really like the idea!Funny thing is I always advised people to do this when I worked at a web hosting company but somehow never actually got my own father to implement this in his business...time to practice what I once preached.

Thank you!
