I would like only answer for one question. Are your paid members above 1% of all accounts, or below?

Then the number would be lower... Its all about marketing. "Unlimited", "hundreds of millions", "probably most of" sounds better than "5% of resources", "20 million active", "there is n

Remember that probably majority of those sites are either dead, not public and made when some people were learning how to make sites. You can put that number probably down to 10% active/public sites. If visitor number is 175m this migh

afaik SS is claiming it is profitable and it was always breaking even. There was an interview somewhere where the owner said until recent the only outside money was $30K loan from his dad (I think it was one with Alexis Ohanian).

Sanctions? The ones implemented already are basically non-existent and aim only at small group of people. Sanctions in line if russia will be proven that it sent army to east Ukraine will be economic ones - freezing all arm deals, weapon-re

Usually if you are not sure about an idea it means it didnt grow on you. Many people have issues with multiple ideas popping in their heads. I would suggest planning each idea (making mini business/action plan). After 10-20 scraped pla

No worries. Tomorrow we will hear that they are Ukrainian nazist trying to stir up situation in region and blame Russia... It seems that photo evidence is not enough these days for UN and EU to start another tranche of sanctions.

TBH it sounds like nothing serious that was blown up big by certain news channels. Steve Jobs could "fire" employees for "fun" in elevator and people were OK with it. But when it comes to gender/racial issues - ther

Some people prefer to aim at the moon rather than look at the ground. The issue with this article is that even if 5% startups will succeed - thats OK. Lets create 20 startups over next 20-30 years then. Because once you succeed - you are wa

MySpace lost because it lost war to spam. Majority of regular users were just fed up with freaking spam. Tens of comments, invites, messages mass sent from some unknown wannabes. Facebook offered more closed approach - focusing on real life

Not only Baltic Sea is really, really small and shallow sea with small circulation of water, but also it is one of the (or the most depending on source) dirtiest one. There are huge projects to return sea life to it - and now with chemical

Its not that easy. Radioactive materials dont just disappear. It would take probably around ~100-200 years for humans to evolve to be partly immune to radioactivity (the same way we "evolved" to be partly immune to coal vapors and

This is like Unlimited Webhosting. It is unlimited as long as you are within limits set by board that you cannot know what exactly they are. It is extremely confusing. Better yet - just do 1 week mandatory holiday every 3 months. This way a

Google is becoming mature corporation. Nothing new here. The same way Facebook will go. You cant just grow forever. There is a point where you will stop and realize that your strong brand might be vulnerable to markets humors. They are rein

The best part of services like this is that you can use it once every month-two to deliver all the large products. 20 large bottles of water, red bulls, watermelons, frozen stuff, soda drinks - all delivered to your doorstep (even if you l

IMO biggest issue - creating a product no one really wants. How many startups create "next Facebook or Google" that no one really needs/use.

You said it yourself - for low transactions. When people donate/do transactions around the web they wont spend probably more than $100 in one go. If any bitcoin service would be worried about scam they would implement same security mea

If you go to PayPal and want to open regular account for low transactions, do they ask you for ID and proof of residence? You cannot compare brick and mortar bank to bitcoin service.
