I've had luck with https://www.19pine.ai/ for nebulous support issues like this, worth a try!


I've not heard of pine.ai. I'd be a bit nervous about giving it any of the necessary personal info it would need to 'help'. Anyone else heard of it / used it?


You could probably just start by giving it the invoice number and your phone/email and ask it to find you someone to talk with?


You should see if your local library gives you access to Zinio - I get the Economist (and numerous other publications) for free through ours.


Good tip, but when I was subscribing to the Economist, I found it worth using their app, which was much better, although, not free.


IMHO the Economist has the best iPad app for reading longer news/analysis content I have come across. The simplicity of the navigation and the non-nonsens approach to article viewing is just very good. I don't get why others can't do the same.


I'd love feedback on the listing, I want to make it the best it can be!


I know it would cut into the monthly profit, but I've researched property management companies that have great reviews and they do everything from tenant placement to rent collection to repairs. I'd probably take the profit hit to automate it even more, thoughts?


Thanks rex, this was the main issue I see with the app. I somehow need to get a bunch of loads and a bunch of trucks right away. I appreciate the advice, I'll look into the magazines!


I created this app to eliminate the broker for smaller companies who have no need for all the brokerage services. They'll get a substantially lower price by working directly with the truckers.

Any ideas on how to push this out to those that should be seeing it?


Aha, thank you!


I don't know why Instagram or Twitter haven't done this yet, but I'd love an application that shows me the top 10 newsworthy photos on a world map (Google Maps). So in the US, I might see a few over NYC and LA or maybe another in the Gulf from a recent oil spill. The photos would change based on where I zoom in or out.

The app could look at Instagram's popular page or how many retweets/favorites the photo had on Twitter, etc.

It would be a visual guide to news. Future enhancements would see a scrolling timeline, so you could choose a date and location and see what was going on. And in a few years, the collection of photos would serve as an amazing location-based history of our world.


This sounds like a really cool idea. We gave the freebie to someone else, but if you want to pay to have this developed, we can certainly do that for you.


karthikm I don't see it?


It's too bad they lost Denniston, I remember listening to him speak at Kleiner a few years ago as a student and thinking to myself, "this is one the most well-spoken, intelligent individuals I've ever encountered." Probably true for most KPCB staff, but a loss nonetheless.
