This is naive. Do you not realize that Edison was an engineer? Just because he had a workshop of people (not so different from having a team of engineers) doesn't mean he didn't create tons of experiments.

There is a great biography of Edison which was very eye opening to me - I did not realize how many patents he held or how many other inventions and innovations on other work he had made beyond the longer burning commercial lightbulb. http

Definitely doable, I love Ifttt and seeing Referly API + Ifttt would be a dream come true. API added the feature request list, thanks!

Agreed, my personal preference is an iframe from a user experience perspective although from an engineering standpoint this could be a nightmare. The interstitial is somewhat industry standard, but feels very high friction. Thoughts on wh

The key difference right now is that you have 1 signup, and you're done... that's our minimum viable differentiation (for now)

You're right, I should say it is widely perceived as shady by people who don't know much about it.

FTC regs are covered in our Terms and FAQ, and its the responsibility of the sharer to disclose. BUT that being said, I think there is a big opportunity here - to make the disclosure automatic AND possibly even user friendly. Right now dis

Thanks! I think non-monetary and group rewards will be huge, because unlike cash they are something that can be made available to a very broad set of users. We plan to be as open as we can week to week about our progress, and how our users

I'd love to learn more about the business options you are looking for (danielle@refer.ly is my email). We're using a bunch of servies on the backend to get the maximum affiliate coverage we can, and from your comment and others here it sou

Providing a check mark or some kind of validation as to whether or not a link is covered for rewards is a great idea, I've added that to the list of potential features. I understand the cynicism - the entire affiliate world is pretty shady,

Sorry to disappoint you. For teh sake of getting this out the door and in the hands of users we haven't built our a directory page yet but its in the works - we move fast. You can also request a specific product/reward here (not yet public

I landlord 3 properties and I REALLY need your little startup. Spread the word! The pain landlords feel, and the crap we sometimes put tenants through because of crappy tools/laws should be solved.

Totally agree. Kind of cool to hear I'm not the only one finding this channel surprisingly valuable - anyone else out there?

You owe a lot to the practice of PR actually, which you should probably consider investing more in if its working for you. I have this spreadsheet at Twilio that tracks signup sources by type, and lifetime revenue. Without going into too m

Want to hustle? This is a great list to go through and familiarize yourself with these people, what they make, what they need, how you can help them, what you might ask them for if they ever offered to help you, etc. Great way to visualiz

Seems like its better to just cause a cultural shift by jumbling it all together. Nerds are learning about business, business people are getting more into code. Long term win-win, short term usability problems.

Yay, congrats and thanks for using Twilio. We'd love to share what you built with the community, can you drop me a note at danielle@twilio.com if interested?

You say that you know if you worked on someone else's idea you wouldn't be able to find the passion to sustain you. I would challenge you on that - how can you be so sure? I joined Twilio very early and it wasn't my idea. However, I took

I completely rebuilt http://refer.ly and learned just enough about the backend part to configure the entire box myself on EC2 (yay!). 350 people in the beta, and sending out the next batch of invites tonight. Yay!

Have been hoping for someone to do this for so long - kind of like casting Star Craft, but codecasting instead. Rock on!
