Agreed, but this one seems to be the perfect fit with google places and checkout. It's not great to see a Goliath taking on smaller competitors, but the truth is that Groupon hasn't innovated much since it launched.

Sorry, Groupon, it's not like you didn't have a buyout chance. (does this sound coming from the future?)

But that s what fb is already doing. They have a long term agreement with zynga to use fb credits exclusively, and they are extending that exclusivity to all developers starting this July

Facebook became popular without apps, true, but they have yet to prove how successful they are. Zynga is more profitable than facebook itself, that must mean something. It's just speculation, but i believe things will change as growth start

You do not rely on other companies only when you rely on open standards. Web development is an example (although you indirectly rely on Google for example). All kinds of apps usually rely on an underlying commercial technology ( windows de

Agreed on all. They need to do better work. We 've been much more satisfied with our previous currency processor. Right now, with the facebook credits option in the same page as other alternatives, 40% of our users prefer to pay through fac

I d say disqus strikes the best balance. You don't have to retype your name on each site, You can be as private as you wish and there are proper discussion threads. They need to work on speed and user interface. I also comment on blogs that

Not important. The question is: so what? people have liked products, actors, bands, cars etc, and have had no problem saying it out loud for as long as i can remember. Unless they manage to actually plow your brain, they can't make you like

That is good news. However, it 's not the first time a "social interview" style app gains momentum. They should work on retaining the users they gained some other way.

I won't quit until there is a better alternative. It seems that ultimately it's the popularity of any aggregator that becomes its doom. Maybe stories run too fast so it becomes pointless to comment, or it is because everyone who disagrees s

Without trying to be condescending, no. I am not a golf fan, and I already know that practice makes perfect. If I were to devote 10000 hours of my life in something it would be more "cerebral" than a motor skill/sport. Just my point of view
