Here's my logic: if you read the post, you already saw the plug (on the post). Edit: that sounds snarky. It's not intended to be, but just an explanation of why I downvoted. I can appreciate your later comment, but when I made my reply to y

Like when Yelp snuck in Monocole in before the iPhone 3.1 release? Except in that case, there was a very different outcome (they weren't removed from the store).

Color me the pessimist, but my response to the "8th startup" would be "why'd you quit on the other 7 and decide to do it again?" For me, a startup is something you throw everything into: time, (your own) money, and aggressively focus on. It

Just because the originating server allows massive attachments doesn't ensure the receiving server will accept it. Within the past week, I got an email from a client saying they couldn't receive anything larger than 5mb and we'd have to ga

It depends on the type of feedback you're looking for. If it's engineering based, take the suggestions of others and look for meetups or user groups in your area. Even at 17, don't be shy about looking for tech groups at any colleges in you

Would you mind talking about any lessons learned from offshoring? Was there anything you could have done differently to have a different outcome?

i'm curious -- what part of this is a great idea? for example, is it the html5 execution (and flash rollback), or the music library, etc.?

Keep me posted on the Swiss bank, also any offshore accounts in the Caymans. There's a couple offers coming out of Nigera that I'm about to move on. :) Congratulations on the launch, and cheering for your team!

Launch...but don't blow your wad on marketing until you think you're ready. If you're not confident in it, I'm not sure how you're going to sell it. A small launch within your network could get you the feedback you're looking for. Don't bea

Tried "the wombats." Artist not found. "Clutch" found results, but the first three songs were pretty painful. "Mos Def" and I'm happy. What's behind the recommendations? Is it manual (like Pandora)? How are you approving music? There's a re

i may have taken the original comment out of context. i've seen a couple CEOs being cool (hip, funny, etc.) when they needed a leader. i think that's dangerous, and that's the point i meant to make. specifically to yours, no, its not cool t

There's a lot of other good comments here. Some might be relevant to you, some might not be. Here's my advice: If you don't have the AH-HAH moment, don't do it. More rigid framework: - what's the problem you're trying to solve? - who is you

(With the IP owners permission...) Convert the screencasts into a standard format via Hey!Watch or Encoding.com, make them available for offline content on mobile devices. Charge for that, give a kickback to the IP owner.
