In the spirit of Daniel's post, I wanted to share a project I've been working on since my kid turned one during the nights and weekends.

BabyDigest is for parents who are looking for an easy way to keep their kids pictures in one place and share them with family. KidPost, recently featured on ProductHunt, does something similar but BabyDigest will actually find past baby pictures/videos on your feed and sync them down. Parents can also upload directly to the site (via the web or email) and maintain a timeline for their kids.

I also used this as an excuse to learn AngularJS and Mongo. Happy to answer any questions about how this was built.

Would love feedback from fellow parents on HN!

I am a YC alum (S'08) and am looking for a technical co-founder to work on a start up with myself and my business co-founder. The start up is in the real estate space, and has a very unique/compelling idea. We are based in SF and NYC. The product is already live and built on Django, MySQL, MongoDB. We are looking to speed up our development cycles and experiment with a few ideas to identify a monetization strategy and would like to bring another person to help us get there quicker.

Any suggestions on how we can go about finding a third technical co-founder?

I've been trying to find some way of determining actual uniques and pageviews for a given domain using Alexa's API. However, the data returned is relative to the number of Alexa toolbar users.

Since Alexa does not disclose the number of active toolbar users, is there a way to determine the absolute number of uniques and pageviews given Alexa's data on a domain?

WolframAlpha seems to be able to determine this: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=daily+page+views+news.ycombinator.com . I've tried to determine how many Alexa toolbar users there are by using WolframAlpha's data on 10 domains at random but there seems to be a considerable variance (up to 500M), so it seems that they are using some non-linear formula to extrapolate daily page views from Alexa Stats.

Any suggestions or anyone done this before?
