An interesting idea but it comes at a pretty high cost. Digg and reddit work well because of the simple design; they are essentially lists of links. This allows the user to go down the list, read what they want and casually vote on links on

How is that a design firm? From their homepage: MonVia is a business and technology accelerator built by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs. And the "What we do" page only mentions design in passing: http://monvia.com/whatwedo.html Given w

I can't say the 20-30 hours contracting he mentions at the end is the best option in the context of entrepreneurship (all other things being equal it's really hard to complain about; definitely don't tell any of my friends I'm naysaying).

He denies that his source was Amazon in a comment: I have no evidence that Amazon leaked this. They certainly did not do it formally in any event. I got this on two email tips from sources unrelated to Amazon. Also, the Amazon lawsuit make
