Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:
Only 10 days left to apply for Triangle Startup Factory's (TSF's) Y-Combinator-like accelerator program. I HIGHLY recommend Chris Hievly and Dave Neal at TSF for any entrepreneur who wants to change the world.

Why I Recommend TSF
I officially turned OLD on 1.1.13, my 55th birthday. I've learned a few things along the way. One lesson is some people GET IT while most do not.
In this context "get it" means more than being an expert about an area of business expertise. Getting it means you live life bounded by passion, love and connection more than money or its many pursuits. To a true entrepreneur, money is a TOOL to be used to build cool stuff.
Most of the really rich people I know, and 100% of the mega-successful entrepreneurs I've met and know, have a common approach to life. All mega-successful people are kind, generous and giving.
Successful entrepreneurs didn't make their millions and then become kind, generous and giving. They made their millions BECAUSE they are all of those things.
Chris Hievly and Dave Neal are brilliant entrepreneurs who make a living now helping others. KUDOS to Chris and Dave and kudos to you if you are smart enough to apply and win a place at TSF.

Yummy Yummy ! Great deal I had just started a Pinterest board of my favorite recipes from marmiton.org, France's best social recipe sharing site. The way Punchfork sends traffic to cooking blogs and other sources is that it publishes the picture and the ingredients but you have to go to the source to read the recipe Delete the scoop?

Robin Good: Woobox is a web app which allows you to integrate and display inside any Facebook Page you manage, your full Pinterest board set (or a part of it).
In addition you can get stats on page views, likes and visitors and you can choose to show all of your boards or just the pins from a specific one.
The service is free and can be activated in a matter of seconds.
I have already activated it on my Facebook page here: http://facebook.com/RobinGoodItalia ;

Gaia, Woobox works only on your FB Pages, NOT on your FB profile. That's the reason why you can't get it to do what you want. It doesn't do that. :-)
