6 patents pending? Is this all a big IP bet for them & their investors? That could really set back under funded entrepreneurs working on similar solutions.

Here's a link to the official Twitter statement: http://support.twitter.com/articles/452648-i-m-having-proble... No clue to whether this is a permanent suspension - or what? I suspect it is since they marketed their apps at the end.

Yes, it's a CTA. Just a weak one in my opinion.

Question here. Why not place a solid call-to-action during the advertisement for people to visit their website and sign-up? All they said was "visit Groupon.com". All Groupon needs is your e-mail address and a zip code. It seems like they c

But I thought Yahoo! were making content plays . . . . Perhaps they only make moves for blue collar content?

That sounds very clear and professional. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work out that way. Most of their competitors are in the same situation they are in. Being the first one to torpedo the other ship and not expecting someone to get ups
