I read something like that sometime this year. It was kids of age of the kids from Lord of Flies and they gave them an island or something similar, I forgot the results though.

Maybe it's just me (and this is more of a general comment to start pages), I don't see the need for a search bar in start pages, I can easily (cmd/ctrl+k) go to the search bar in the browser and it's not that much harder. As for your site,

I like how some of the things actually make sense, such as commenting with BTW, breaking out of a loop with GTFO, etc.

I think a problem is that either all the APIs have to agree, so new sites can be added without manual coding, or every startup has to agree on something, which could get hard. Also, the sites without APIs will not be included in this app?

I remember the v1, and this definitely looks a lot better. I have one suggestion though: the 3+3 main points on either side are the ones that people will probably read first, so users should be able to easily understand how the process work

Would it be too late if you buy from a shady source and if they know that they are fake? They might not accept exchanges or returns.

I don't know how many people use Jabber, but when I first tried it it was pretty confusing (I figured it out 2nd time trying it, but IMO it should be a lot easier), so I imagine for a normal user it might be confusing to start using Jabber

Wasn't Apple the one where some third person had 2% in case the two Steves had some conflict? But that third person was just for conflict resolution. In general I find 3 or 4 is a good number for a start. It's not too many to manage, but no

I go to McGill and our email addresses end with .ca, I think similarly for some other universities in Canada. Interestingly, mcgill.edu does go to mcgill.ca (not emails though, I tried).

Usually in those cases your domain name might reappear in a few days, since there are some 5 day money back policies that the domain hogging companies take advantage of.
