I'd also like to know this. Is the apple watch better or just better with marketing & PR? The 'my watch told me i had heart issues' all seem to be Apple Watch related.

Wow you guys have a lot of experience in this space! For a product like alltheflightdeals, i've never understood how entrepreneurs justify competing here. I assume you're not directly integrating with a GDS and that this works off

Very cool. I'm just using My Maps from Google at the moment so this is better. One question: Did you manually populate your pre seeded itineraries or did you parse it automatically? I think they add a lot of credibility to the iti'

A refreshing take. On the surface it seems to be common sense (focus on product, talk to customer) but the real take away is to not get bogged down by metrics and a/b testing because you feel like its some mandatory part of success. It

Question non snarky question: Why do some people opt to host their videos in vimeo instead of youtube? Are there benefits or is it the cool contrarian thing to do atm? Great article. I hope to use it to do something similar soon :)
