That's a really good point. A service like this has enough potential business use cases where I'm sure a lot of users would be willing to directly give them cash to ensure this is a long term company, not a flash in the pan startup.
Makes you think about the true intentions behind a startup/company.
- seltzered_ 15y agoI'll pay someone 10-30 bucks if they recreate ifttt with a pinboard model. Keep it simple stupid, fairly cheap, and charge extra if you want to do things like SMS/Voice/things that require constant notification.
- timjahn 15y agoThat's exactly what I see ifttt becoming.
- herbivore 15y agoWhat do you mean by pinboard model?
- nuttendorfer 15y agoYou pay once to sign up, this fee increases with the ammount of users.
- herbivore 15y agolol thanks, I'm so tired that I read (and then typed) pinboard as Pinterest. heh
- seltzered_ 15y agoyep. pinboard has both a "pay us one-time" model for bookmarking and an "annual-fee" model for special features like pdf archives. That seems reasonable and fair, then again I'm sure he can pull it off well because as far as i know pinboard's a one-man bootstrapped company.
- ThaddeusQuay2 15y agoIt's your lucky day! Make a detailed list of what you would want from such a service, divided into levels, and indicate how much you would pay for each level. Place the list here, or email it to me, and I'll try to build your ultimate ifttt clone. I like pinboard and ifttt, but I see ifttt as struggling to transition to a paying model because they are spending way too much time, money and energy supporting a large user base for free.
