Well, I'm sure social networks like Facebook have already an internal "how good a friend is this person to you?" index for each of your friends, based on how much you interact with them (private messages, invites to events, wall posts, like

Of all the "big features" Lion has, the one that I find a good reason to upgrade is Mission Control. Still, not being that big of a deal, I've been lazy about actually upgrading. Funnily enough, reading about some of the really awesome smal

You're right, that's what they do (mostly). That doesn't mean they're not useful. Plenty of services have been creating around "reorganizing" (more efficiently) sources of information. Also, once you get some volume of events and user info,

Good point. There was a Like button on the previous design of Fiestastic, but I ended up getting rid of it. I also have other ideas to make Fiestastic more viral / shareable and to make users come back to the site, but first I want to focus

I agree it makes a lot more sense to start with an iPhone (and Android) app, but being a web developer myself, Fiestastic so far has been an effort of a few weeks, while developing an iPhone app would take a lot more time for me. First I wa

Well, the good thing about both Crowdspottr and Fiestastic is that, unlike classic social networks (Twitter, Facebook, etc), even if only 1 user uses the service, it's already useful for him/her, as all data (events and friends) comes from

Regarding your issue of "I already know what my friends are doing" and "I don't want to go somewhere I haven't been invited", I guess it all depends on what you define as "friends". Your closest 10 friends? Sure, it applies. But who doesn't

Whoa! I feel like I've just been slapped in the face. Don't get me wrong, the design is beautifully, and the app is great. The thing is.. I've been working on something like this myself! And yours looks way more complete and polished. Her

Clothes! I think it's the one thing I can't seem to buy online. Too much hussle of "guessing" what size will fit you, or buy a few and then return them.. bah, I'll just walk to the store.
