nothing is going to beat google. if you tried and had a great idea, you'd get bought out in a heartbeat. then google would have your great idea and be even more invincible. by the way google if you're reading this, i have a great idea. br

because we're innovators not sharks :D and a business model is not a business, it's not going to make any money without a product. have fun with it, no one's going to make money selling ideas anyways

i really wasn't thinking about making tons of money, but more sustaining and growing the community hand in hand style if you want to make tons of money, simply billing the users is enough. don't charge the people who follow, but charge any

"At the moment, there is no one within big companies who gets in trouble when they buy a startup for $200 million that they could have bought earlier for $20 million" this comment is amusing although i do believe he is being facetious. i am

hate to break it to you, but jesus is not a real person. and really does the definition of humble apply to people who are decidedly NOT so? especially considering the definition covers a broad range of classification 1. not proud or arroga

are there really that many good ideas that are unfunded? i think the advent of these seed watering ventures like Y-Comb and Techstars, the industry is getting the saturation it needs. maybe instead of just seeding startups, someone needs to
