Wow, Zuckerberg is genius. I remember everyone (including myself)criticizing Facebook for not taking the Yahoo deal. If this works, they might become the first truly great and useful portal. Google, are you guys paying attention?

Surprised that Zenter turned down a Google offer. I wonder how low it was?

Was Aaron Swartz a founder of Reddit? I thought he joined Steve and Alexis after Infogami didn't work out. Either way, he's a great hacker and that was great candid interview.

Startups are screwed? A MS/Yahoo combination is a play by MS to get immediate marketshare in search and other major online services so that it can allow it's MSN monetization engine to compete. Startups shouldn't be looking to compete with

Why does the fact the MBA grads want to work at Google take away from the company? There are a lot of very talented MBA graduates who are very good at specific things. It's not like Google is letting MBA grads run engineering.

That's not what I'm saying. I agree that Digg shouldn't censor it. My point is that the original poster shouldn't have posted it. Clearly, the intention of this particular number is to steal. It's not enough that pirates steal, but they hav

I really don't understand certain users. Digg is a great and useful service, why try to abuse it? Are pirates so proud of stealing that they have to broadcast it to the whole world?

Joost is an excellent concept and I'm impressed that they've been able to land some major deals before launch. However, as the industry moves towards HD standards - are consumers going to be satisfied with the solid but still lower quality

I disagree with the premise that Google is only good at making product's that its own hackers use (See aston's points below). Nevertheless, even if we assume that this is true, many of Google's employees, including tech leads, produt manage

I don't think emulating Keynote is the right play. Any online presentation app should be designed to exploit the inherent advantages that web applications have, i.e. collaboration, information retrieval, etc.. I don't think the goal is to r

You can't win on brand name alone. Zenter has some tough competition ahead of it but I'm sure they expected it.

Great point, getting users is the tough part.

Google the new Microsoft? I don't think you can make the apples-apples analogy. Google can't lock out or force it's products onto its users, they're in a very different business and environment. In order to continue grow they'll have to i

This might be true but it definitely won't come through CPM or CPC advertising. Facebook needs new methods of monetization (i.e. gifts, sponsored groups, user data).

I can't wait to see Zentor, as someone who worked on the next version of Keynote I admit I'm skeptical of online presentation apps but it seems like an exciting space to be in.

Good luck to all who got rejected and congrats to those who made it to the next step. We got rejected also, kind of expected since admittedly we were more interested in seeing what startup life was like than our actual idea. My partner and

The SEO Industry and practices are fundamentally against the goals of search engines. I wouldn't want to base my business on something that Google's core product aims to destroy.

Vinod Khosla is a very smart guy, maybe's he's not referrring to the software industry, but do you guys think there is a limit on what hackers can do with "just a bachelors." This is sort of related to having a technical advantage on your

"FYI, IPTV is better than YouTube." If such blunt and sweeping statements are being made in Redmond then surely Paul Graham is right. Microsoft is dead. To even think that IPTV and YouTube are 1 on 1 competitors represents a fundamental mi

If your speaking about Facebook's API then that the decision on whether to use it is highly dependent on the purpose of your site. Personally, I would think very carefully before branding your site as a Facebook addon. You might be referri

I agree that I'm skeptical of any significant technological advantage that Justin.tv possesses but they have a huge credibility advantage. Compare Justin.tv to Ustream.tv. Justin immediately presents us with live video and even provides hi
