Kind of sad to see so many products that are derivative, either directly (we scrape twitter!) or indirectly (We're going to do what X did, only for Y!)
Of course it probably all makes good business sense and I wish them all luck and to be happily bought out.
I just wish there was something original - X because it's a good idea and will bring great good, rather than X because Y...

- iamwil 17y agoChances are, you wouldn't recognize something original if you saw it. You'd probably say, "that sounds useless" or "why would anyone want to do that"?
