I'd say that you're really over-thinking this. Just pick one of those three site ideas, keep a narrow focus, do a good job executing it, and expand from there. Nothing "hits the market" as a giant network. It's a process of accumulated grow

Interesting, it looks like Blackboard has their own interpretation of a "patent pledge," but it only covers open-source and non-commercial software. http://www.blackboard.com/About-Bb/Patents/Patent-Pledge.asp...

Think about that for a moment…if you look at Steve’s background and took it against engineering-centric hiring practices, the CEO of the decade couldn’t get a job as a secretary let alone in management. Conversely, the type of person desc

Real world situation, you decide to move your database from mysql to postgresql because you're unhappy with something that oracle is doing and you want to move to a database that is completely free and open-source. Using a framework, you ch

The claim that PHP frameworks are not well maintained is completely unfounded. Are you going to seriously say that Zend, Codeigniter, Symphony are not maintained? The claim that they are more trouble than they are worth is also a common mis

No, no international charges with BrainTree and none in the foreseeable future. If that is a concern then it might be good to look at other options, I'd assume you'll face similar difficulties with other processors (I could be wrong).

I agree with the assessment that both terms come with such differing meanings, that they should probably be avoided in the mainstream for the fear of losing the point in the technicalities. What I took issue with is that the post was in dir
