- meh02 14y agoLOL, no. After the Reader-is-dead news cycle ends, the money will stop flowing, and the real work (supporting paying users) begins.
- DuskStar 14y agoOh, wow. I had not realized that number was the DAILY signups...
- wilfra 14y agorevenue, not income - he's going to have high server costs now and if he wants to keep this scaling up, i suspect he'll need to bring on another person soon. at the very least, a customer service rep. still should easily net him a nice recurring six figure salary.
- klox 14y agoCurrently adding over 4k paid users per day. He reaches $1 million at just over 40k paid users. Factor in the userbase he's already been building for 4 years, the hundreds of thousands of Google Readers currently leaving, the millions that will need to find a replacement before July, and the last-minute movers on July 1st. I don't think server costs and a couple of employees will put him below a 7 figure income.
