- sczkid 13y agoI couldn't stop laughing at the "yes/no" pie chart.
- seivan 13y agoWoah, this guy is actually for real.
- co_pl_te 13y agoHilarious. But one point of contention. "It's like twitter. Except we charge people to use it." App.net seems to be doing fine sans a time machine.
- doktrin 13y agoNot being familiar with his work, is it a known satire or assumed to be an actual exchange? I'm having a hard time verifying its authenticity. There are at least a few claims (unsurprisingly, by the other party in the exchange) that the entire thing is fake.
- triplesec 13y agoIt's embellished truth, I believe. Like "Reality" TV, or 100 pieces of Glass or whatever that book was, though a whole lot funnier.
- peterjancelis 13y agoHere is the Linkedin from the 'project idea' guy: http://www.linkedin.com/in/simonedhouse http://www.linkedin.com/in/simonedhouse Name and work history matches perfectly. Edit: Here's a counterarticle arguing David Thorne is a cyberbully: http://www.smh.com.au/technology/technology-news/funnyman-of-the-internet-just-a-bully-say-former-colleagues-20110621-1gdht.html http://www.smh.com.au/technology/technology-news/funnyman-of...
- angersock 13y agoThe linked cyberullying article is an interesting read; then again, I'd hate to use an internet where I never had to fear running across a mean person--would be quite dull.
- nooron 13y agoI met Simon at the Bitcoin Conference. He kept calling Adam Draper, the fellow administering the Hackathon, "the Draper boy." He tried to hire my friend and it was weird.
