Execution requires 2 or more ingredients. If your a fantastic ideas guy, and an incredible evangelist - you will win. If your a fantastic designer, and incredible sales guy - you will win. The execution is the final baked cake, once all ing

I would like to see a real response to this, point-by-point. What this doesn't need is politician style answers, but true responses.

RSS is the pipe, its not a solution. Your average joe doesn't "know" what TCP/IP is and frankly its the same for RSS. Something needs to sit at either end and actually make use of the RSS "pipe".

Err, seems like your splitting hairs: "If you're looking for an hourly rate or a salary before funding, you've missed the point." insinuates exactly that. I for one don't see "very much" being offered here. Edit: ...do you?

Groupon, Facebook, eBay all build products that solve big problems , felt by your average joe . No explanation of product necessary. People like gossip, people like stalking, people like a bargain. It is as simple as that.

Yeah, I scrolled down hoping it would say. Remarkable none the less. Makes me very glad (scrap that, thank god) I live in the UK where carrying deadly weapons isn't seen as a right.

I'm not a techie. I couldn't tell you what a BSD licence is exactly, but I'm aware of the differences, and reasons for choosing between them.

I've been here for a couple of years (I think), and this is without doubt the best site for this kind of chatter. Better than OpenCoffee email lists. I have to say, I rarely read the articles, just the comments!
