I don't have an actual blog to test it, but I truly like the idea. One question though, are you planing to support hosted blogging platforms like Blogger? I think that could drastically expand the circle of your potential customers.

I don't have a conclusive answer but a few inputs. I think it drastically depends on the state a company is in. An established business which is listed on the stock market probably has much less of a markup for the 51% than a very young com

This article clearly shows the fear VCs have to miss the next big thing. IMHO thats why they try to collect data on as many companies as possible and according to the article that happens without much coordination or without a clear goal. A

Invest against the trend. And don't invest everything into one thing, diversify. As a last piece of advice I would suggest to keep some liquidity.

Even though I wouldn't use the gold to make a front door but if you look at the development of the Gold Price ( http://www.google.com/finance?catid=64980108 ) it doesn't seem that unreasonable of an investment. But I wouldn't put all my mon

I agree with you that using less bloated software could be an option but for some it just isn't an option and they are bound to use (at least some of) the bloated software because of the platform they are developing for or other dependencie

I think the article is interesting but mostly stating the obvious: Projects that do not make money and aren't able to garner a top spot in their sector/niche get killed. What I would find much more interesting is an article how Google choos

I can see how this seems to be a bad idea but executed correctly this can be a success for Microsoft and this also means that they probably shouldn't just copy Apple's concept. What kind of Products does MS offer? Computer Accessories, MP3

Feedburner "only" delivers stats about your Feed and not a Feed about your stats, so I think you weren't talking about the same thing :-)

Exactly my point. That's what I tried to express with: and I'm not saying it needs to be someone who has an MBA or something similar I just think that someone needs to keep an eye on the business perspective and take responsibility for th

You are right, I could have phrased my original reply more politely. I understand why you you would find it a useful feature because of the situations you describe, I would probably use other means and tools to detect your later case. I cle

What would be the use for you in real-time stats? IMHO you use Web Analytics to optimize your Website and to monitor success of different aspects of your site. I don't think that real-time data would help there much and I don't think that G

I think a StartUp needs management from the beginning. Maybe its because I'm a business student, but I think if there isn't someone with a perspective on strategy, finances, marketing and management in general the StartUp will fail because

I completely agree with you. The name isn't the best it could be if thinking ahead.

I somewhat agree with you. In the long-run in my opinion it will hinder widespread adoption because, as you said, the name just sounds silly. But right now the name probably helps them because it generates attention and is memorable. But ho

this somewhat sounds like the search-wiki extension Google has. you can only see it when you are logged in but you can influence the ordering of results. it's not one result but you can manipulate them and AFAIK Google mentioned that they w

it's also google.com If you enter google.com/ncr anywhere around the world you get to the google.com Version, which often sports more features. By adding the ncr (no country redirect) you don't get forwarded to country specific sites.

I think the cost for new computer hardware would be negligible if you compare it with the upside of increased productivity. But of course to get the system running (with or without new hard- and software) will need some time...
