by gdilla 12y ago
but I HATE that once in swarm, you bounce me back to Foursquare to see what's good here, after not allowing me to check in in Foursquare. It's so maddening.

but it's no worse than several displays, screens and buttons that area already present in your car that divert your attention even more than a HUD would.

It's still pretty easy though - except when the bars let out in the bowery.

This is great! Request - could you add the ability to choose your city and normalize the others? Example, I live in NYC, and I want to consider a move, how much cheaper is it? So if NYC cost is normalized to 1, then I can quickly understand

The issue is letting your brand be accessible on some third party's (often) sub par app/platform, where you don't get access to data (often) and have little to no control on the UX. The tradeoff is app fatigue and a cluttered

Check-ins have been valuable to them in so far as data and intelligence. It hasn't been valuable to them as something to monetize off of enough to satisfy investors. Hence the pivot in the hopes of more Yelp like ad revenue. But I woul

I didn't mean to imply it's a bad strategy to take on local personalized search, but the implementation to date is so confusing. If I open up Foursquare now to check in, it bounces me to Swarm. If I use Swarm to check in and want

I was so puzzled why a company like Foursquare, which if they didn't invent the check-in, brought it to our lives, and associated their brand with it, completely removed it from their flagship eponymous app and put in a new one called

Sure, because those books have rights to be sold in your geo. OR, your account is based in the US (billing address).

How is the deal structured? Per stream, per 'play', per open? What about books that have higher list prices? etc. Existing ebook rights contracts are based on the agency model (70/30 split with retailer, then some portion of

True, O'Reilly books has had a successful, expensive, subscription service for years. All reference titles, and more enterprise customers.

This won't have the major publishing houses titles (beyond those who have agreed to work with Oyster). So no Penguin Random House, the market leader in print and audio. It also remains to be seen if the subscription model can work for
