Whether or not something is good has nothing to do with what it's labeled. Sure by definition it might not be racist but certainly that's how it would play out. A better equation might be: exclusion != racism ≡ you're a minority

The financial incentives seem to be working entirely against you... From a user standpoint: One has no reason to join. Adoption occurs when the benefits of joining are greater than cost of joining. You inflated the cost of signups from 30 s

I don't think you understand what freemium means. I have some reluctance to believe this but, as the stories go, it's akin to a drug dealer giving a free hit to "see that the product is worth paying for". It is not perpetually providing you

Interesting conjectures... On the other hand since Zuckerberg's being an arrogant asshole preceded his wealth, one can argue that this sing and dance number that fools you is actually just history repeating itself. I think I'll base my opin

Interesting you bring this up... I was working on one for awhile that hard a sort of social karma system built in. I wanted to try and reenforce people creating tasks in a game environment rather than just through self-motivation. You were

We weren't. I also didn't think we were parading our medals though clearly I was wrong in that regard. Is it janitors I'm thinking of that arrogantly brag about successes? After all, you seem to be the expert on them ;) I have no desire to
