The startup I would invest in tomorrow if it existed
- brlewis 19y agoSmart guy, but he may be too late. I don't think friendfeed is looking for investment.
- tx 19y agoDo you really believe that by "Trillian of Social Networks" he meant something as trivial as an RSS feed of updates? I have been at "RSS startup". The problem with RSS feeds is that sites (sources) are smart and are using them to BRING visitors back, not to give them away into your favorite RSS reader. A content owner is always a king. You want to own a content, not a pipe. Sean is talking about building a service that liberates you from visiting MySpace/Facebook/Orcut completely. Needless to say, Facebook won't be happy about such thing and almost certainly won't allow it.
- brlewis 19y agoGoogle search is a pipe. It's doing well. From your "RSS startup" comment I don't think you understand friendfeed. The main reason to go to myspace/facebook/orkut is to waste time looking at your friends' activity. With friendfeed you can do that in one place. For example: http://friendfeed.com/paul http://friendfeed.com/paul Facebook can decide they "won't allow it" and be left out in the cold.
- vlad 19y agoI'm sure many of us have thought of this before but don't see a point in attempting any new idea until one can find other programmers and getting investment behind it. Otherwise, no matter how good you are, you're just one guy wherever you are trying to compete with a few other groups of people who are funded in Silicon Valley. Anybody else thinking like this? There are tons of good ideas like this out there, but ideas aren't as important as getting a team together from the beginning.
