Cool, simple, and creative. Bravo! I even love your app store icon. It's cute and eye catching.

The site states that they are using a WISC stack via BizSpark, which gives companies free use of a TON of tools and software for something like 4 years or once they make over $1 million in revenue. Sure, you could also do this for free using open source tools, but I would GLADLY pay a couple grand in licensing fees if my company was making over a $million in revenue using the Microsoft stack.I think the fact that StackOverflow uses a WISC stack is a testament to its reliability and robustness. Hey, whatever gets the job done.

I'm curious, did you have specific demographics or criteria in mind when you chose your testers?

Either way government money flows to VC's doesn't it? How would this be any different than say a pension fund who receives government money and invests that in a VC fund? It seems like this would almost be an American sovereign wealth fund, sort of like Singapore and the Temasek Holdings company. It's better that the money go to startups and innovation rather than buying more sub-prime mortgage securities.

Actually, super heroes CAN die... if they don't make money for their parent companies. We just don't see them die :)

I'm curious about how caffeine consumption goes up when waking up earlier. I find that when I wake up earlier I will sometimes drink an extra cup or two of coffee throughout the day to try and stay alert, though I suppose if waking up earlier became a habit then maybe caffeine consumption would level off?
