Same here. I am sure EngineYard will use this opportunity to provide services on micro-instances. It's going to be a big boost to EngineYard. Heroku, not as much I guess since they anyway run multiple dynos on a single m/c.

Nice summary. Completely agree to your points. The reasoning of value network may not directly apply to Apple, but yes Nokia was in the right position to make as much impact if not better than what Apple did with iPhone.

I wouldn't consider Nokia as having adapted to disruptive technology. I think Nokia's example is similar to 3M's. IBM may be a right candidate, but I wouldn't agree that it has adapted to disruptive change. Yes it has survived through it.

I created a similar app, but primarily for India (using India local number). But it should work internationally also if you are willing to pay international SMS charges (don't know at what premium). I've hosted at appengine first to see the

India has definitely progressed in the last 5-6 years, but to emulate a startup ecosystem like the valley takes a lot more time. Fred Wilson had a good article on this the other day. Valley today is what it is because a lot of ventures and

twitterfox that I use as my twitter client does not recognize "<user>.bit.ly/xyz". If it is an undocumented feature, it is susceptible to link hijacking. I can take a url shortened by you (pplante) and brand it as my own mayank.bit.
