I second your thoughts. Our application was turned down and I got the same email in my inbox this morning. In my case, I had a different reaction to the rejection though, in that, I decided to take on the challenge head-on. But then again,

Personally, I'd love to use this if it can provide context to my photos. No one gets context right. Couple that with discovery and you have a winning proposition. I don't think the rejection has anything to do with the product its

I just realised the irony in that sentence. You're right! What I meant was, we haven't really figured out a product for consumers, let alone the enterprise, for us to be able to go for it. Having said that, what we're now doi

YES!! I don't think ideas need to be protected if you can back it with great execution. Ideas aren't unique, can never be. As René Girard said, all desires (and hence ideas) are mimetic! So, I don't buy into the philosophy th
