Do you have a blog about your projects?

Shouldn't whether a company CHOOSES to do it be their choice? The law would say yes. I'm betting a bigco will C&D them in the near future if they don't make it company-opt-in.

Is it just me or was getsatisfaction nowhere to be seen on those links? If so, go google!

Perhaps GS could just shut down it's service and redirect all customers with problems or questions to send an email first?

I think it's time for an open source getsatisfaction.

They aren't equivalent, but are similar. I was offended by their business model (pay to get your competitors ads off your support page - wtf) and would never use them for that very reason. I must admit it's a pretty impressive model regardl

No. I don't contact the bakery if it's bread is mouldy either.

It's quite ironic given their business name how unsatisfied many people are with them. I certainly felt this way, but thought there was nothing I could do about it. Thanks Jason I say.

Remember getsatisfaction provides a public front for YOUR company. Why shouldn't they discuss it in the public. They are discussing YOUR business in public, without your permission, and trying to come off as legit.

It would make sense for google to make sure that companies it buys are doing it the google way. I think they have learned from jotspot and jaiku that it is probably better to get in earlier rather than rewrite the entire system to fit on th

Clones FTW. Until we can clone and adjust environments to experimenters desires, the jury is out.

Do you see the future of YC investments as being acquisitions or building profitable companies?

I would say users are the biggest winner. Things are pretty good for users right now!

Personally I don't think they can. I agree with misappropriation vs copying, but I still feel sad for the content creators. It must suck to put in thousands of hours into something that people love but you can't make money off it.

So you are saying that it's ok to pirate as long as you say "this was made by x, get the original here"? How about considering what the creator of said content wants?

Mininova make 1million pounds per year, probably more. What's the difference?

by trapper 18y ago
The net result is the same though - revenue is taken from the content creator.

I always find it interesting when articles like this take the stance that piracy is bad, but articles about copying movies/music/game piracy take the opposite stance (piracy is good). Perhaps I am missing something? Content is content, if s

is wxwidgets a good framework? Has it been embraced by many startups?

Completely agreed. Go with a universal color like blue. And install awn/metacity by default with a good theme. I use ubuntu as my primary os and can't stand the default look. It looks like a "toy".

I have always thought you would be awesome at taking someones product and taking it's web sales to the next level. Is that what you are interested in?

She's a special girl what can I say :) We have both been working on a mutual startup products for a few years now. It has worked for us, probably because we are both different (optimist/dreamer vs pessimist/realist) yet the same (passionate

I started my first company by getting supported by my partner, working all day & night :). I had a deadline of 6 months to release which I met. We lived like students (still in a student flat), and by no means had any disposable income.

Possible scenarios can easily be abstracted. E.g. Building attack, car bomb, etc etc. They have the data.

I have always thought a good business model for sites like academic earth would be to offer tests (using the many test centers around the world) to users to certify them in certain classes. Kind of like a DIY degree, but verified.
