So it would depend on the state that your SaaS company is located in, or where your customer is accessing it from?

This may be a silly question, but does this sales tax also apply to SaaS products that you might sell? Or is this only for physical products a la Amazon?

I really had wayyyy too much fun playing this, for how "simple" it is. I'm very impressed with what was possible in just two nights. Thanks a lot for sharing!

Wow, yeah. Document fragments seem to be even faster than my original createElement. I'm really going to have to re-evaluate how I'm creating new DOM elements.

That sounds way more realistic - I'm not sure what's going on when I'm testing, but I may try later to repeat.

I second this - I've had great success using just Cloud9 for development and pushing to GitHub/Heroku

Another mystery of how a story can stay on the front page for hours with one comment while others drop off more quickly with active discussion happening. I know it's been discussed before, but sometimes I'm very confused about the ranking of stories.

This is actually a little more in-depth than some of these types of lists get into. I really liked some of the metrics tracking that they suggest adding in. It's unfortunate that this is getting posted to HN, though, before their actual site is live so that could check it out.

The term "Heroku" doesn't even appear in the post at all, so I think this is definitely one example where it does make sense to match the HN title to the blog article title.

It sounds like a pretty sweet deal, but I kept looking up and down the page trying to find the catch. Is it purely a promotional thing for the companies to which you get credit? If so, I think it could use some emphasis that you are getting this in exchange for nothing at all.

I know it says "free", but that doesn't necessarily mean they don't expect something non-monetary in return.

This. I really hope they're able to get that integrated soon. That would be awesome.

I may be interpreting the post wrong, but I took some of the lack of detail as a kind of challenge for someone to figure out how to make it happen. To me, it sounded like someone saying "a cell phone should be weightless and have infinite battery life" - obviously not achievable goals, but worth working towards.

I think the simplicity he's proposing has its usefulness - it's all dependent on where on the "[paper napkin] <----> [realistic photoshop]" continuum you need to be for your mockups. Depending on your intended use, you can get by without drop shadows and rounded corners for a lot of cases.
