One thing to keep in mind is the audience itself. You tuned the benchmark for one specific audience. You'll find that in the fashion industry, not a lot of people are browsing expensive dresses on 3G connections on older devices in th

Will do in Spring, as it becomes more feature complete. (search, articles, user blogging, etc..) All compounded by the fact that I also do the content for the site. Anyone want to turn this into a platform product?

That's nice and all, but no one is going to have all the images/videos/audio available offline for their media sharing social network app. Web servers exist so you don't have to have all that data locally.

A lot of it is that they think they need to create unique art projects for things that have absolutely no need for that. Bike-shedding to the max. They seriously don't need to make the Mac Pro an art product. But, I believe that there

You can also look at the USPS as an example, since it IS a government entity that doesn't have to serve profits. Also, the military and healthcare is more efficient in government, but you probably already knew that already.

The numbers support my case. You can send a mail with the USPS for 50 cents anywhere in the country, but it costs $5-$10 to do the same with UPS or FedEx. Literally 10x-20x costlier. Government just doesn't have to waste money on thin
