Looking for tools that make creating one page information sites pretty easy :)

Currently running a successful SEO company - but do not have the time to keep running it.<p>How can I find another extremely reputable white hat company to possibly buy out some of my clients?<p>Also, I'd like to use my SEO skills to create projects that generate recurring income so that I can start requiring less time. Any suggestions of the sort of sites/platforms I could create, get ranked for with my own services?

E.g. AppSumo

I have a lot of time to get stuff done, it just doesn't happen. The easy choice is really too easy, and inconsequential.

Just trying to gauge places where the environment would be good.

Obviously, Stanford will be at the top. But then what would you have?

MIT? Berkeley? Princeton? CMU? Cornell? Caltech? UIUC? UCSB? UCSD? UT Austin? U Michigan? UCLA? USC? U Chicago? UIUC? NYU?

My current list goes something like 1. Stanford. 2. NYU/USC 3. Berkeley 4. UCLA 5. UIUC? UCSB? UCSD? UT Austin?

As an Australian, the process of choosing which to apply to is much more difficult because I can't ask my classmates/counsellors these questions!

Previously I was sure of CS.

Though now I have realised a big part of my interest is mixing programming/content with internet marketing/affiliate marketing, which I am doing well with so far.

Would a CS+some kind of marketing be a good idea? Or psychology? Or just doing a few units in these?

I honestly feel the internet will give me better advice than anyone I know personally.

As for unis - any suggestions? I am after a smart uni where I can find programmers+co-founders, but also women+balanced life. Stanford and USC seem great to me. I live in Australia btw, and have taken the SATs (~2350)

Which events should I go to?

I will be there from the 10th to the 16th of April, roughly.

And if anyone wants to show around an Australian interested in startups, please let me know :)

Looking to learn some new skills and make some money.

What do I have the best chance of making real money (say $50/day) with?

- Apps: iPhone/Android/WinMo/Ovi/Mac App Store/iPad

- Web apps: like most of the things that come up on HN. (Appt Reminder, for example)

- Digital content: ebooks on easy to learn and write about topics. Think long spammy testimonial pages

Sorry for the brief title.

I live in Australia and am considering Uni in the SF region.

Currently trying to decide if it is worth taking a 2 week trip to SF to help my decisions regarding university.

If I go, what should I do? Can I get a feel for Unis like UC Berkeley and Stanford? Can I get a feel for the 'startup culture' and maybe even check out a startup? Can I get a feel for living in the city?

Moving here for 4 years is a pretty large commitment, and I would love any opinions you can offer.

Hey HN, any chance you could help me help myself with a few suggestions?

I am looking for an issue to inform others about and take a persuasive angle on, but ideally one that will help me learn about something related to programming, startups, etc.

Needs to be a reasonably big issue - big enough to get in an Australian newspaper (since Sept 2010)

Some ideas I had:

- the Chris Russo POF hacking (persuading for/against this) - the Microsoft/Google search results debacle

What would you choose

Okay. This is my situation:

- Live in Melbourne, Australia

- Very interested in tech startups or tech businesses

- Also, as of recently, interested in the 4HWW lifestyle

- Currently in final year of highschool

- Debating between (major: CompSci):

   - a decent uni (Monash - top 250 in the world) 10 minutes drive from me

     - pro: easy, cheap ($8k per year)

   - an awesome uni in the SF/Valley area (UCB/Stanford)

     - pro (for all sf options): live with people like me, who are more open to my crazy ideas, and who are the desired customer for many of my ideas

     - con: extremely expensive, away from family friends, might not like living there

   - a reasonable uni in the SF/Valley area (or community college?)

   - going to Monash in Australia, and then applying to transfer to UCB

     - con: no guarantee on being able to transfer

   - ditto the above, though from a community college in SF

   - not going to uni at all, and travelling 4HWW style

     - con: miss out on the 'uni experience'

     - pro: much free time

What I would love, and what would help me:

- Please tell me anything you can to help my decision, including:

   - Your experiences

   - Your opinions

   - Contacts for people you know who went through something similar (international admission to Stanford/UCB, moving to the USA for a startup, etc) - or at least the decision (eg considered moving to SF for a startup but didn't)

   - Good places (forums, organizations, etc) or people to give questions like this post to

   - Would taking a holiday to check out the USA help me? If we did - what should I do if the trip was solely for the purpose of making this decision?
