There's like two Japanese newspapers in NYC, printed weekly, and it's free. They're usually found where japanese diaspora shop, eat and gather. Great price, great distribution, great visibility.

what about a simple one time purchase? I imagine the half life of a good pitch is really short. So your churn will be high. If people last a long time on your service, they have other problems.

it's interesting but two things come to mind. Viewing it on this site makes it seem like it's great, but what about in context? If i came across that, I'm forced to think more than a capthca, just since it's so different

Had no idea this was going on. I'm aware of life insurance offered through the company for myself at very low premiums (and I guess google and the like are no premiums for whatever-x your salary). First time I've heard of a comple

There's still too much value to be had in high end smartphones for them to start competing on price. They're competing on ecosystems.

Right. They want the perception of it to be a best in class smartphone.

Cost has nothing to do with price. It's all about customer perception and their willingness to pay. Handbags cost very little to make, but some are priced at $800 and some are $8. 16GB more on an iphone 5 is $100 more in price . That

Then again, it could be more about software and services than just hardware. They've offered a competent competitor to high end smartphones to be sure, but they've also extended and bolstered the Amazon ecosystem with Firefly. I d

I don't know. Living in NYC has taught me to make-do with less stuff. Storage space and closets are at a premium here. One thing that is great, I don't buy things to keep in the house, like books, or stuff from Amazon without real

I think it's for the career opportunities - there's a huge density of jobs in NYC and a diverse collection of industries. You can job hop and ratchet up your salary if you network and manage yourself well. You can do all this with

You live in Bay Ridge so you can afford to live in greater NYC and access NYC opportunities. Not to live in Bay Ridge for the Bay Ridge lifestyle (necessarily.. some people live there for the schools).

It's not really sharing though. It's teasing or playing, much more like Snapchat. You wouldn't use this to share things. It would be too annoying.

Well, it's not like they're a public company with obligations to report financials. We're at the mercy of their great media handling, PR, and tech-media darling status.
