   i created a very similar site, it would statistically matchup people based on all kinds of things likes, location, photos, sharing, frequency of updates.. etc. I wouldn't focus on the dating aspect but more of a viral aspect, similar to ot

   If you are using the benchmark that 10+ uses = a loyal user, wouldn't that mean 76% of users are fickle.

   I think you're focused on the wrong set of users. Because of the nature of your product there are so many alternatives that people use.. I would focus on that very specific niche that need these features to try to build a loyal base. I t

   I find the same in my own usage patterns. Most apps I try just to see what its about but never return to. With games theres almost a new free good quality game to try everyday, I rarely return to older games. The utility apps like maps, e

    headline is a little sensationalist, but I would hardly call them idiots. Just some people don't place a priority on personal information. Are the real idiots the ones providing the information, or the company that allows peoples personal

    I think focus of articles have changed, not so much as quality. I remember when HN ran erlang articles for a few days, which was effective for some time, but sadly brought more attention and audience outside of who the erlang articles were

    Awesome work man. I'm with you. I've been seeing this in the top 10 free apps. Can you share any insight into your marketing strategy, and how you got some traction ?

    I know theres a lot of slide sharing sites, but I find just slides pretty useless without the context of what the speaker is saying. Slides are meant to be complimentary to the speaker so why is it useful sharing this.

    I'd be more interested in who are the people MyLikes chose to advertise your campaign based on the categories you chose. From the categories you chose.. Moms, Youth/teens, Finance,Education, Art, Small business. This seems like its the ri

    what ad service did you use for the reality star ? for those talking about the campaign or the non targeting, I think the example he mentions about using another service is relevant. I'm not familiar with MyLikes, but are the influencers th

    By going into the facebook privacy settings for that application, you're allowed to remove some of the individual permissions they ask for. Example: Access to data at all times can be removed individually.

    I think you need to just stick with what you know best. Why not write back end services in C++ and create some services, that can be consumed with Java or PHP. When creating projects/products.. your main goal should be to get it out to ge

    this is a great list of gems, just wondering how you discovered all these. What do you use as a discovery tool for gems, or do you just search for them prior to coding yourself? For example I've never heard of awesome_print or kaminari.

    I agree with the cluttered part, first thing I thought was where do I start. I would start with a nice landing page, that has a nice explanation of what the site is. I think you need to put less emphasis on the game, and focus on getting

    from how I interpret this you're saying this is all guessing, and you actually haven't executed anything ? This makes no sense, just do it. Right now you are worrying about things that may never happen, and is holding you back from actual
