Wow. They are very upfront, and might have a niche they cater to that needs to see prices immediately. I can't hate at all. I may do the same with my services. It will stop the low budget projects and answer a lot of questions upfront.

The apple in apple computers is explainable. If your logo fit your name or a concept, then it would work, but as of now its just not connecting. otherwise, without signing up, I'd like to see the app in action with a tour vid or screen gr

Marketing and funding can be a connections game. in my opinion, it's best to substitute years of sitting on a project with no connection to funding with giving a cut to a connected person with previous startup funding experience. Saves t

unless the navigation scrolls the page, this is a horrible idea. I agree that if you can fit all of your info on one page, it should be done, but the example was 5-6 pages long. I wouldnt scroll down that far.

Kongregate has a great community. The only difference is theirs is more of a developer community than a casual gaming one. How did they begin to grow their users? Is viral marketing and press releases enough? Thanks for all your help!

Adobe had image-ready to compete with fireworks. Upon acquiring the Macromedia products, they canceled the image-ready line. Illustrator is a vector editing/illustration suite. Fireworks is a web graphics suite. No need to worry, there

Am I wrong, but didnt Time Warner pay 40 million for access to bittorrent last year with plans on distributing high quality movies online? This goes against what their goals are with regard to populating the web with high quality video. M

Web 3.0 is based on simplicity. Even simpler than web 2.0. Now there are just blank screens + white noise with backend tags for a semantic, metaphysical experience.

Actually the new flash player allows direct access to your computer for processing and cacheing. There may be some privacy issues along the road ahead, but your browser does not need to be open necessarily. Hopefully they can iron this out

Actually your point works for P2P not a centralized solution. A centralized server is 1 rd vs a P2P highway of a undetermined amount of decentralized servers(roads). I believe that the answer is not a centralized solution or a P2P solution

Who is the target user? I agree that a semantic web is better, but I cant honestly see myself using it. As far as execution and design however, nice job!

The elevator pitch should not contain information that detailed. When you get into revenue models and such, unless its a USP then it becomes more than an elevator pitch. Once you get a formal pitch then you can go into detail. Everyone s

Great idea, The look---not so much. It is a jumble of text and bright colors which confuses me (I had ape-brain transplant). So if you want to make an improvement, I'd start there. Otherwise, Great!

who wants to use the web without a GUI? how many ppl want an experience like that? Maybe diehard code nerds like a few of us, but we are a extremely small minority in the sea of web users.
