This is the first "single use case marketing package" I've seen from Task Rabbit. Would be awesome if they opened an API for others to create a similar site across different verticals.

Thanks, Cory! What do you mean by "better as a blog"? It's currently presenting the most recent entries (like a blog) and includes category links (like a blog). I'm curious what ideas you have.

Lol, "using web 2.0 technology". Thanks for the insight. Shady, incompetent firms seem to be a common theme but there has to be at least a few honest, effective resources available.

That's an interesting concept. What if there was a Netflix for independent content producers (bloggers, video shows, podcasts, etc.)? I could see this model work in the tech scene, where there are early adopters and tons of content.

Media is becoming more fragmented as the internet disrupts traditional TV broadcasting. We'll see more networks and independent shows similar to TWiST. Most of these people and shows will have relatively small audiences that don't yield e

I'd like to see more content producers adopt this model. As a long time TWiST fan, I gladly donated. I actually wrote a short blog post about this model and twistlist.co a few hours ago: http://ryanhoover.me/post/4768633874/please-take-my

My initial thought is to leave investment/equity out of the program and stick to the original vision. There are dozens of established incubator programs that have a reputation and history of performance.

Google has built one of the most successful email spam filters and they've arguably done a decent job at cracking down on link farms and other black-hat SEO tactics. They'll certainly have more work to do but I don't think they'll have a p

Still waiting. They received about 2,000 applications and typically call in 80 to interview from what I've heard.

+1 for This Week in Startups/Venture Capital and Mixergy. I'm also a long time listener of This Week in Tech/Google with Leo Leporte. Buzz Out Loud and Today in Tech are also good daily tech headline podcasts.
