Sorry - didn't mean to imply the post was the list. Wrote it to illustrate how this list is both absurd and at the same time lacking. The link to the doc is first in the post (list of monitored words starts on page 21).

Same here, although I didn't contemplate the change. It just sort of happened somewhere in my late 20s. Late bloomer I guess? Always thought I was smart and understood people. But, now realize I missed plenty by not really getting it and

The fact that news like this are so rarely brought into light is the real news. People want their rankings to improve yesterday. If you won't tell them we can move you up to the first page or #1 in X amount of days, someone else will say it

I've never smelled a pitch deck but I'd say absolutely yes. The team section isn't just a rundown of precious startups - it's you. What have you done, built or hacked that shows these people you're someone who gets things done/they can trus

Yes, success. Suppose it validates that it's a cool marketing idea. I'm sure you have others (and those will be copied too...if you're lucky). Think of where else you can post this to get some attention (sorry I have no suggestions). Maybe

I must be missing something because I don't understand why they are so desperate to get rid of it. If it's really making $200,000+ per year just hire someone for 1/4 to 1/3 that to handle it.

The Forbes article definitely isn't praising Zynga. But, I also didn't read that it stated the loss of users had anything to do with Zynga. The article writer actually infers that the loss of users would have happened regardless. "but they

It's anybody who you hire at your startup - until they leave and then all of the sudden they are C players. Because, if you only hire 'A players' and you have decided to hire John Doe #4 for some combination of skill, experience and vibe, t

Interesting that the "marketing guy" wanted him to lead off his SXSW talk by discussing how turntable's traffic was down. That just seems crazy to me and Chasen rightly ignored this advice and deemed it a "defensive" way to start of his tal
