Yet another reason on the long list of why execution matters a helluva lot more than the idea, especially when it comes to easy/simple ideas. I'm not convinced

Yet another reason on the long list of why execution matters a helluva lot more than the idea, especially when it comes to easy/simple ideas. I'm not convinced it was "stolen", and I think it's pretty crappy of you to suggest that it was unless you know something the rest of us don't. TipJoy almost certainly has a product roadmap of some kind. Theoretically it's possible that they pushed what they were in the middle of aside 15 days ago to attack this and managed to get it done and launched by today... But I think it's just as likely that they were already working on it. Even if they DID steal it from Twitpay, the idea certainly didn't originate there. http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008/6/how-twitter-will-be-worth-a-billion-in-a-year http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008/6/how-twitter-will-be-worth...
