My thoughts exactly. Sad to see innovation die for no reason.

  Innovation isn't dying "for no reason." If it dies, it's in pursuit of a payoff for what was most likely a whole lot of work by everyone involved. For a community largely made up of entrepreneurs, it sometimes baffles me how resistant people are to acquisitions of their favorite companies -- this is part of business (and a good one, at that!).

    You're assuming we're all in it for the money. Some are. Some aren't.

      If you're not in it for the money, you're not an entrepreneur, you're a charity worker. [1] [1] https://twitter.com/#!/daeken/status/120926390685151232 https://twitter.com/#!/daeken/status/120926390685151232

        What a narrow minded and myopic view of the world. I could cite a tweet to counter that, probably from someone with far more authority than the person you cited, but then I'd be citing a tweet as some form of proof...

          The tweet is by Daeken, my grandparent, wrt to this thread.
