It was educational and informative. It wasn't until you mentioned it as being an ad that I went back to see who actually wrote the article. You increased it's effectiveness by focusing on it...and now even further. ;)

Google didn't need search.com. 37Signals didn't need basecamp.com. If mint.com were mintybooks.com you would have found it anyway. The owners of schoolbinder.com wanted a ridiculous amount. We went with myschoolbinder.com. People are findin

It is 2010. I'm sure there are apps that were a success after 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and some after a year or two of pivoting. If its an innovative and useful idea users "get it" almost immediately. If it's not as innovative and you're bui

Interesting. I'd like to see videos of the gameplay and stats on performance, load times, lag etc. The Netflix of gaming consoles?

I personally think they should focos on bands, musicians, and teenagers. Regardless of whether or not its a good move by MySpace, i think its a little low class of FB not to send their CEO. Yes we all know the almighty FB is king and the My

GREAT point. I thought that was just with my users.

Pavs, I totally agree with you. Gmail, Chrome, Search and iOS were late. I was all over them when they came out too. I was all over Wave and still think they should have slowly integrated its features into Gmail. I was excited to get my han

Great point on this article. FB is starting to remind me of AOL. AOL users didn't care that you could run IE outside of AOL WWW or that you could use Thunderbird instead of AOL mail. Just make it simple and keep it simple. Good job.

I guess everyone has to have one of these too :/ Is it just me or is anyone else sick of seeing the same features being developed on different platforms? Can't google and Facebook fill different spaces? Buzz was late. Hotpot is late. Where

Everyone is saying that they might be on their way back to the garage and I agree except that the driver should have the off-duty light on at that point. They should pull over and explain "Hey I'm on my way back to the garage but I can take

Agreed. My mother-in-law owns a NYC cab. They get hit with complaints all the time...even when its not them and the person had the wrong cab number. Cab drivers are guilty till proven innocent.

I thought he was just being funny on a Sunday morning. I was going to guess something like $10K for a PG breakfast.

Making $500K per year at Bank of America and earning $20K a year with your side s-corp does not make you a small business owner that can help unemployment with a Bush tax cut.

Facebook has an advantage for two reasons: 1. Facebook ads point to other Facebook pages. 2. More people fill out their FB profiles than their Google profiles.

What you guys did deserves recognition because it was a gift to those who did not even notice the outage. We should also give credit to Netflix and those who at least choose to notify their members. It is almost like the "honor system."

I never noticed so I didn't claim. I figured they should get "paid" for their honesty.

I know they don't love me but it's much better than what most do.

Why not do both? Give the credit and send the email.

I would look into another platform. My kids are older now so I couldn't recommend one without researching. I am sure there are plenty of good sites out there.

Also look into Ninjitsu, the Bujinkan, Ninpo, etc.

Go where you feel comfortable learning. What good is an intense class if you can't get comfortable to learn?

So what if I wanted to use my Facebook contacts to see how many of my Facebook friends were on Buzz or Twitter? Facebook wants us to use our Gmail username and password to import contacts from those services directly into their network but

by rodericksilva 16y ago
Ummm...they are my contacts. "Facebook's reasoning for not providing an API" is because they want to protect me from other Facebook type companies? Really? ...or is it that they don't want us moving our data to another social network? Let's

You are right the medium is free but it cost time. If a company hires a consultant for social marketing it cost them but on the other hand if a startup founder has time to spend they can do it themselves (for a while). It can 'some-what' le

Remember its a battle of OSes and not devices. When will we see iOS or Droid built into our TVs? If it were just devices the iPhone would be out-selling each individual phone independently.
