The comments on this thread are such an embarrassment. Someone's worked hard on something for months, and people go and piss all over it. If you don't think this is a useful or good app, you don't even have to look at it. Just pass. At leas

Rob Walling, Jason Cohen, Ruben Gamez all write excellent blogs. Mixergy is a goldmine. There's always the danger of spending all your time reading and hearing about other people's work. It's better to go looking for info when you need answ

Don't forget Amazon does the same for physical goods purchases (I don't know about their streaming service). Your purchase history is not available via their API. Product reviews are also no longer available via their API. They don't mind l

There's a ton of stuff you could do, but it depends on what you've already done and who exactly you want to target. One effective thing I can think of - Ask @pud nicely if he'd put an ad on fandalism.com

Thanks, I didn't see that. Clicking on a list-specific bookmarklet didn't seem to work. So, I clicked a few times and then found that article saved multiple times. You need to provide some visual feedback while saving the article, otherwise

You need to improve your onboarding process. The sign up process is slick but way too long. Need to provide some instant gratification. Just because I like to check out new products, I was patient and did all the steps properly. But, in the

I said nothing about conversion. My guess was about the top of the funnel. He said he hasn't tried selling his web app yet, so the comparison remains to be tested. At least I qualified my speculations as a feeling. If you're going to misrea

Yeah, a huge mall is probably a better analogy for the app store. The web is more like a network of high streets.

I see your point about the black box. But, I have this feeling that maybe the sheer numbers of people that enter the mobile app funnel at all far outweigh those on the web. It seems like the difference between having a big shop on a quiet

Distribution seems to me the big advantage of mobile apps. How's your experience been with getting users for your mobile apps? How does it compare to your experience with web apps?

That was one of the things I always thought was weird about me. All my friends always showed off how quickly they read books. And it took me ages - I would keep re-reading lines and paragraphs that I liked. Now, I can just say, "Did you k

Ok, you agreed with my original comment and then gave the example of Meetup, so I misunderstood. I disagree with your reasons for making big changes that most of your users hate, but that's probably because we disagree fundamentally on how

Actually, that particular example is the opposite of people loving the change. If you lose 95% of activity, most people must be hating the change. And it's not clear that the rest are loving it, unless their activity goes up. It's easy to j
