Yipit is actually in Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver.

You're right, just saw that (sorry). But I mean, 3 cities isn't exactly grabbing the Canadian market.

Yipit.com aggregates Groupon, LivingSocial, and hundreds of other daily deal sites(including non-location specific ones like Woot). It will filter the deals based on your location and specific interests you have.

Disclosure: I recently started working for Yipit.

Very nice, I had heard of the site but never tried it out. Do you guys manually aggregate everything?

Originally it was all done manually, but we've been automating more and more.

Feel free to send me any feedback. steve@yipit.com

As someone who just finished an internship, I can provide some insight into the good and bad.

As far as a main project, I would choose something new and independent. Think of that crazy idea you've been playing around with for a while, but haven't had time to implement.

Another thing that often gets overlooked is a side project. My internship work level tended to be very cyclic. Whenever my main project was stalled for one reason or another, I had little to do(I ended up roaming through the code base). Find an incremental project for this. Bugs and small features may suffice.

Finally, recruiting. Posting on sites like this is a good start. The type of students you want will find it. Also contact the career centers or CS departments of the specific schools you like. Most have some sort of system in place. Recruiting begins in September in a lot of places.

Send me an email if you want to pick my brain.

Fresh off an internship myself, I can attest to the benefit of having a side project. Primary projects often do get hung up, and with nothing else to work on, interns are left venturing off into places unknown. Some predetermined side projects would prevent a lot of downtime, something that's vital when one only has ten or so weeks to work.

I can confirm that the security hole was not limited to only friends. I was able to insert non-friend's IDs for the "viewas" parameter.

Yes, the title was designed to be somewhat tongue-in-cheek.

Thank you, corrected.

I agree that Alice has not provided a substantial argument, but this does not make Bob's response any more legitimate.

The on-demand approach is not completely eliminated. Users can still watch episodes of previously broadcast shows. I'm hoping that the show owners will be out there encouraging voters. I also thought that some statistics displayed to the user could encourage voting(consecutive weeks voting, total shows voted for, etc.)

The long-term plan would be to have multiple channels, with at least one that would presumably fit your interests.
