Did you think about your comment for months before you posted it? I think you need to give this article a serious shot (think months) before you'll be able to objectively assess this article.

I agree with SeoxyS - 14 days is nothing! I'm just now reaching conclusions about my business and it has been a whole year! Granted my business is very different and conclusions to be made vary based on the character and intentions of what you are doing - but I still hold to the logic that 14 days just isn't enough time to draw conclusions. Further, you could actually put forth why you disagree with him instead of taking his comment and applying an out-of-context switch with the subject. Comments and articles are completely different from a business on scale and intent (seriously, months to think about a comment? However I do re-read my comments to make sure they are sound, so maybe minutes). What I think you meant to say is that writing and sharing thoughts is okay no matter what stage you are at; in that I agree, but I disagree with writing about weak conclusions (weak because 14 days isn't enough time to gather the data and experience necessary to clearly conclude) based on the fact that as an author on the internet, drawing conclusions too soon can actually hurt your business.

  As you said, writing and sharing your thoughts on your own business is fine at any stage. The author wasn't making a final, definitive assessment of his business, and it's absurd for SeoxyS to assert that he was. Even if the author had made a "conclusion", he is welcome to. If he learned something in two weeks, congratulations to him. If after two weeks post launch, and months of development, he cannot plausibly have "made a conclusion", then no one on this thread has the right to "make a conclusion" after reading one blog post.
