Maybe they can capture part of the anti-Facebook audience. They would never get the anti-social-network audience, though. And this, which seems trivial, is important, because (for me) it's not that I am anti-Facebook, it's that I would neve

In Sleep (for Android), I have set it to turn off by scanning the barcode of the shampoo bottle in my bathroom. However, if I am too sleepy, I just open the phone and throw the battery to the other side of the room.

It's sad to think that quality is not always enough to get noticed. The more I enter the startup / entrepreneurship world, the more I see bullshit is mandatory. The problem is, sometimes we are not good at communicating (bullshit?).
