Agreed on all your points! But I think offering a better service in an established sector is the opposite of "no competition" and being a "first mover".

- lotsofpulp 4y agoLike how we would say a professional sports player playing against an amateur has no competition. Technically, yes, but effectively... The context of the discussion is whether or not an "invite only" tactic works for building hype and launching a successful product. In that sense, I would attribute Gmail's success not to the "invite only" tactic, but to the fact that it was so superior that it had no competition.
