This has nothing to do with Cue/Greplin.
- olegp 13y agoDid you watch the screencast to the end? i ran a search and got personalized results from all my web apps like Gmail and AngelList. How is this not like Greplin?
- mbreese 13y agoI know you're just trying to promote your company, but it feels a little like handing out business cards at a funeral. Sure, you can do it, but it seems little tacky. This post is still in the mourning phase. It will probably move on to the post-mortem, what is a replacement for it phase tomorrow or Friday.
- olegp 13y agoSo it did come across as dancing one Greplin's grave - thank you for clarifying that. I'm sorry. Next time I'll refrain from posting comments when I've only had two hours of sleep the night before.
- myan 13y agoDoes it matter? he advertises that page on pretty much all of his comments.
- olegp 13y agoYes, I do promote my startup whenever I can, but am always on topic. Why the negativity? Is it wrong to be vocal or do you feel like I'm dancing on Greplin's grave?
- chrissnell 13y agoYour post comes across (to me) as self-serving and somewhat socially awkward. The "PS" and "PPS", in particular, are quite crass and not the way to promote a company. You seem like someone who meets me at a keg party and jumps right into a pitch as soon as I tell you my name. No offense; I just prefer HN comments to be less blatantly promotional.
- olegp 13y agoI can't reply to Chris' comment for some reason, so posting the reply here: I'm sorry that I came across as crass and socially awkward - I hope I can prove to you that I'm not so bad in person one day. The PS and PPS are edits because I got excited about what this meant for us and realized I was being too self promotional esp. to people that knew nothing about us, so thought I'd give some background and clarify my feelings. PS. No offence taken :)
