- jacquesm 16y agoYes, and I agree with that too, and so does Mark (though I don't speak for him of course, but judging by the other stuff he's doing). It's just that there are more ways than one to achieve that goal and essentially by selling threewords.me Mark just made pretty good profit by selling a 'good' (threewords.me + the work invested) to a customer.
- axod 16y ago> turning a profit (i.e. selling goods or services to customers) Why does everyone on HN ignore advertising revenue? Or is it lumped in with the above?
- Tycho 16y agoIn this case, I believe there was no advertising, or at least any advertising revenue. It 'wasn't monetized.' I don't think anyone ignores it, particularly in the case of something that people wouldn't readily pay for.
