Diffen

Business Category: Tech Startup
Founder: Nick Jasuja
Inspiration for Product/Service: My 12-year-old niece used to subject me to a barrage of questions that I found I couldn’t answer – what’s the difference between LCD and Plasma TVs? iPod and Zune? Obama and Clinton? Jail and Prison?
Target Customer/Audience: Anyone who needs to compare options to make a decision… which is everyone.
Synopsis of Product / Service: Diffen is an online collection of comparisons and differences that users help write and maintain. You can compare cell phones, cameras, cars, service providers, employers, cities, schools, celebrities, sports teams, philosophies, presidential candidates, neighborhood restaurants, software products… anything your mind can dream up.

VMware and Parallels for Virtual Machines

chris@lockergnome.com (Chris Pirillo) — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 06:30:00 GMT

It doesn't matter if you're running on Windows or Mac OS X - every power user needs either Parallels or VMware (or both). There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer. Plus, there's no easier way to try new Linux distributions - see what all the fuss is about. Run Windows in OS X, run Linux in Windows, but the best way to do either is with VMware and/or Parallels.
