This looks to be some sort of partnership with LinkedIn... http://www.deltainnovationclass.com/

Exactly. At first, it seems simple, but a lot of complexity behind the curtain and huge potential. Pharma and pharma distribution is a massive industry and provided they're able to scale and prove the model, they could go on to do a lot of other really interesting things.

There's a huge amount of creativity that comes from solitude - I've often felt that the biggest issue for me with having a "real job" is the fact that I can't carve out enough time to be truly alone with my thoughts. The grass is always greener... :)

I'm not sure it's really the number that matters - each network has a distinct focus - some non top-10 or top-5 schools (Carnegie Mellon for example) may have less highly-ranked MBA program/network but have a really strong engineering/undergraduate network. For an MBA who has an engineering background or is pursuing engineering management, getting an MBA at that sort of program may make a lot of sense. I think the real key here is that blindly following rankings makes little sense and that picking a program that's really right for you is what does make sense.

It's interesting that they chose not to include the ability to pull videos being shared on Facebook, Google+, and Twitter (these are all options in the web app).
Curious what the HN community thinks about that lack of "social" inflow - I always feel like those networks are better at curating video that YouTube's "recommended" stream.

It's really a shame that FG's comments were downvoted here... Can anyone shed some light on what happened?

i'm a climber too and that actually helped me get noticed as well. i interviewed a guy recently that had "guitar hero expert" on his resume and it led to an awesome conversation. that kind of stuff matters way more.
