I don't care either way about 4chan, but I'm surprised that Time is still publishing the results as if they mean something. It's just a funny hack.

I like their checklist of items they're looking for in a web app. It seems like a good list for anyone developing a product. This item stood out to me as insightful: "If you’re selling your product then it must have at least a 10% convers

I wish they would have put the data in a simple table as opposed to a large, shiny doughnut.

"Today with a guy or two, a good idea and about $1.5 million you can get a contract manufacturer in Asia to do your gadget." So probably not very easy with only a few thousand in investment, but I guess somewhat reasonable.

I like the advice to "start your day as early as possible, even if you're not a morning person." I'm definitely not a morning person, but he's right that it feels so good to have accomplishments done early in the day. Need to do that more

The marginal costs may be low, but overall the value is in their ease-of-use, reports and analytics, and time saved in not worrying about email deliverability. I think it depends on what features you need and how much time you want to spend

I've been starting to use MailChimp myself and they seem to be very active about policing their users. In the article he said that he was contacted by a human who reviewed his campaign before he sent it out. Here is their anti-spam policy:
