Aside from bets, it might be a good way to get clients to pay up faster :D

I don't think it's for the general public, but there are enough 'subversive individuals' out there to make this work for them, I'm personally extremely fed up of the increasing lack of anonymity on the services that I use ...

Nice story, I enjoyed reading this ... I find it very difficult to believe that they can feasibly force you to stop trading under the same name ... was there any way you could have continued with different products?

definitely don't be depressed, take the lessons learned and apply it to everything else you'll ever do .. and ask them for a job! really impressed by this app by the way - my only issue with most new apps like this is that they usually don

I'm presuming that Lions in the wild have a far greater chance of death and injury as well - a good reason to stay in the zoo perhaps ? Eitherway, good luck to us all!

hmmm - "try checking your settings of perception of objective reality." - a bit geeky and out of touch I think ... I would have said: "remember, you're alive, now take a deep breath, count your blessings, and make the best out of today and

I already did, and didn't get much feedback :) Anyway, right now my focus has changed - I'm launching a new service, my second, and the whole reason I got into web development in the first place ...

I recently moved to Germany from Ireland, and I must say I find it extremely limited in terms of what you can and can watch - half of youtube is blocked!!

I built nift.ie a while back if you want to check it out - it's incomplete and I think it only has one regular user, me! - but I find it very useful for myself, which makes it worth building :D - actually I couldn't function without it ..

Make it easy for developers to build awesome apps to sit on the google+ platform - make it much clearer and more user-friendly than facebook, and you've got a game-changer ...

Regarding why we dream, I've always thought that it's got something to do with exercising our right brain. We feed our left brain when we're awake, we feed our right brain when we're asleep ... can anyone confirm or deny this ?

hmmm, i don't know if scobleizer is a benefit to a product or the kiss of death ... for me Google+ is missing key features, like a decent messaging system, and events ... it's also lacking a feature to link up with similar interest group

I'm super surprised they haven't implemented it already, i mean, it's not that difficult to build a granular permission system, what they have in place right now is a disaster ...

Hi Tim I wasn't actually expecting a personalised response from the AnyAsq creator. It was more a general comment, and the question still stands I think - read my DM's?, no frickin' way!! - that's a serious invasion of privacy ... I under

Great article, it really puts it in perspective. As an afterthought, does anyone have any good information on how to sensibly value a product or company ?

It's how facebook started, and it's how facebook will finish ... Zuckerberg's mantra appears to be 'kill anyone that looks like competing' rather than 'collaborate and succeed' ... My gut says that the collaborators will win the day.

true, but at least they're transparent and they allow people to grow with them, which is better for everybody. that said, I think they could make a fortune out of paid support.

I really hope they kick facebook's ass - Google is a company which allows other smaller companies to grow and build on their system, they're inclusive ... it's near impossible to build a serious business on a facebook app (outside of farmv

I think they could have done much more with wave - I would have got far more benefit from it if they linked it to my gmail in some inventive and unintrusive way ... I'd like to see them rework it because I think it's a really great product

I'm not worried about that, since it's basically nonsensensical text, and with the amount of searching I do, it's going to be buried. By regularly, I mean about once a month.

16 years from now - I'm guessing we may be seeing the start of an energy revolution ... which will be even more significant than the communications and data revolution which just happened. Also, a lot more progress will have been made in t

I feel that Berlin is a far better startup hub than Amsterdam: It's cheaper, has far more space, and many creative people and programmers ... That's why I'm moving THERE and not Amsterdam ...
