True. Looks like I better start building my rocket and prepare for a test launch.

YES! You are right. This is exactly why I am compelled to try one more time. I see a frontier that is market is not reaching for, they are thinking too small and conventional. I honestly think branding, rhetoric, design, and features could

Noted. I get psyched out thinking 'they are already at 25k followers and I have 0'. But when I stop and look closer, they could buy followers because their content is not that original or powerful to have that many followers organ

I think I can, so I'll try. I have nothing to lose. Worst case, I'll use it to improve my skills and to land a job.

You're right. I'm glad I asked, I need to get over my 'but-I-didn't-go-Harvard' internal dialogue I think this space is missing a critical component. That's why they have all failed to scale beyond a little ear

It's crazy to think that no matter how much money we have or don't have, when a man loses his mother, it all feels the same. Birth, aging, sickness, death. We are all united by these.

wow. this is disturbing when you consider the original intent of the WWW, the evolution throughout the 90's and 00's. Only to end up with Facebook being the gateway for potentially billions of people from developing nations.
