Does it really matter in the end? It's not the idea, it's how it's executed right?

- nopassrecover 16y agoWell claiming complete non-awareness of the popular competitor just seems a little odd. It would be kind of like Mozilla saying they weren't aware of IE - sure execution is all that matters, but it's curious why you'd say that.
- arn 16y agoDigg wasn't a "popular competitor" at the time. It was an unknown competitor. TechCrunch did a first profile on Digg 5 days before Reddit launched. I'm going to assume reddit took more than 5 days to build. http://techcrunch.com/2005/06/18/profile-digg/ http://techcrunch.com/2005/06/18/profile-digg/ So is it that absurd that they started on Reddit without knowing about Digg? For that matter, TechCrunch wasn't that popular either in 2005.
