I would say duplication of youtube is neither a feasible nor a desirable goal.

I only watch at home, so clearly I'm not the right person to ask about accessibility. Streaming though... It obviously depends on the userbase, but I have downloaded feature length videos faster through bittorrent than youtube took buf

There are a good number of channels who have hundreds of thousands of subscribers, combined with the hunger for new content... I think you don't even need to do much incentivizing.

I mostly use YouTube to watch channels that I subscribe to. I already disliked when they switched to their new "feeds" view that makes following channels very tough (sometimes videos are missing, the list only goes so long, but I

That's an incredibly broad question. I built my own business around a niche and established a client base through this while also doing jobs on the side that come about through that business.

I will never understand the persistent fetish to make E-Mail more like Instant Messaging. Sure, if you only send emails that are a couple of sentences this might make sense. But that's not what people use email for. That's what th

Bootstrap is crazy popular and people know about it enough that they understand that "designed for Bootstrap" usually means "you can hack it to fit your stuff".

Can't really pick a best. The reason why I write that recurring billing is hard is because the business cases vary so widely, so the answer is usually: It depends (on your location, userbase, what you're selling...). I started out

This actually solves a problem for me. For a long time, "finish Google Checkout recurring billing integration" was on my todo list. Just didn't get to it due to limited time and confusing documentation. Now I can simply close

So I have an opinion on why these types of game kickstarters fail: You're trying to sell me a game, not a story. There are thousands of games I could buy and most of them cost very little. But I don't. You have to figure out why I
