prtfl.io is much more polished—it shows that it wasn't built in a weekend. Please launch soon! After looking at prtflio.eu, I wouldn't worry too much about brand dilution—it's not even in your league.
- josh2600 14y agoHey, I get your point, but you can't compare something that isn't launched to something that is. How many times does Paul Graham have to say "just launch"? Launch and iterate, iterate and then iterate some more. Talking about brand dilution on an unlaunched product is a moot point to say the least. I'm not taking sides about what happened here, it seems murky at best, but you can't compare an idea to a product.
- eps 14y agoTo every Paul Graham that says "just launch" there is Steve Jobs that scrapes nearly done products, restarts from scratch and ends up releasing stunning shit. Let me see your "launch and iterate" do that.
- AnthonyJoseph 14y agoFor every dollar that a "Steve Jobs" type produces, 10 are produced by people "launch and iterate". Business is about making good decisions as often as possible, which the latter methodology seems to do better.
- jcoder 14y agoprtfl.io is obviously building a thoughtful product with the goal that people will get value out of it. prtflio.eu did the equivalent of putting a file upload widget in front of s3 and calling it flickrcom.eu.
