A friend of mine has a designer garment & jwellary business and she wants to setup an online store. I think instead of using a custom made or open source option it is better to use a SAAS provider for a couple of years to see how it goes.

So, who are the best SAAS e-commerce providers right now in terms of features & quality of service?

Anyone can help me discover some good newsletter related to photography? or online magazines with good quality content?

Now that the HN is up & running again I noticed that the HN Notify(http://hnnotify.com/) service I am using is sending multiple notifications of same comments again and again. Is that one of side affects of HN outage?

Also, out of 7 comments 5 are gone.

For someone having a decade of experience in software application development(mostly web applications) but not so much knowledge about hardware, what is the best approach to get into hardware hacking?

C was the first programming language I learned and while I was in college I did some fun projects like developing a graphics & GUI library from scratch using just BIOS interrupt calls to set video mode, read/write pixel on screen and mouse handling. Since I left college I code mostly using python, php & javascript.

What would be the best approach for a person like me to get into hardware hacking?

I am about to start a new side project and this time I am interested in writing a book on "Web Design". My primary target audience are hackers who want to get better at web design and use the knowledge & skills to develop well designed front-ends for their product. Here are my initial thoughts on how I would like to go about it :

1. I don't want it to be a 500 page HTML reference. There are many such texts available. That's why I want to focus only on HTML5 elements that are used in real life projects.

2. Teach CSS3 in a simple and fun way by focusing on fundamentals and using mini-projects to illustrate how it can be used in real life projects.

3. I also want to cover design concepts like typography, layouts, responsive design, color theory, etc.

I am looking for suggestions on what to include in my book. What are the most important topics that you would like to be covered in a web design book?

As I am writing this bitcoin is trading at $950+ at Mt.Gox. So, given that you already have some bitcoins and also some cash to invest, would you buy new bitcoins or sell that you have. Why?

What are the options for someone living in India to buy/sell bitcoins online? Is there any exchange site that accepts credit cards or netbanking of indian banks?
