Can't say I agree with you about us "abandoning" our users. SimpleGeo was acquired by Urban Airship and the decision was made to discontinue the service. Disappointing, sure.
- runako 15y agoI think you just disagree with my choice of words. But to the extent that a Web business can abandon its customers, this is what it looks like.
- rhizome 15y agoThat's just passing the buck, and besides, "you" didn't abandon SimpleGeo users, UA did.
- shinratdr 15y agoI don't see how your comment explains anything or makes it seem better. You sold the company to a company that wasn't committed, and your users are suffering for it. I like that phrasing, "The decision was made." Like it was an unstoppable edict from God himself. I can't speak for anyone else but I never support the future endeavours of a dev that treats me like that. I'm your customer, and if you sell me to another organization you better make damn sure that organization has my interests at heart, or you'll never see me as a customer again. YOU dropped the ball. Passing the buck only makes you feel temporarily better, it doesn't actually make anything better.
