I do have a thick skin - so I wasnt offended. I have been researching this idea for quite some time -- I've tried several other ideas / side projects over the years - some (like my earlier blog) have been successful, some not so much. After

I dont get what point you're trying to make with the relation between the quoted line and the title of the blog. As an aside, arent you being too quick to judge ? I quit my 6 figure job and have been working on my product for the last sever

The problem with Groupon and other local deal companies is that they have to manage fluctuations on both the consumer as well as the merchant side. Even if one side of the equation wobbles a little, Groupon will feel the impact. I think at

I agree. It shouldnt take more than 1 or 2 clicks for a user to review all your products. Ecommerce sites tend to not pay close attention to this - but look at how much significance Google pays to this metric.

Let the haters hate. Just like you might have shrugged off other, bigger downs during the 7 years of running Loopt, just shrug off the haters and savor the success, no matter how small or big it is. Very few people can lay claim to running

It is for this reason (2.x markups) that I am working on an ecommerce startup idea. I like the idea of selling actual product, making actual revenue and knowing what your margins will be. While manufacturing your own clothing is much more i

Joel - I'm just wondering. With your reputation and clout, how would your product launch have compared if you'd just announced it via your blog / twitter / SO ? I wont be surprised if you'd have gotten a pretty good response via that method

I dont think there was anything missing from the existing FB developer forums except for the main missing ingredient - active participation from FB itself. If they are going to be unresponsive on SO as well, migrating to the SO platform doe

I wonder if Nokia had approached / will approach HP to acquire WebOS. With Elop @ Nokia's realm, I am skeptical. RIM is too busy building its on OS to be really interested. Amazon, Intel and Samsung seem like very likely candidates to take

Personally, I think that 4sq should have taken up the acquisition offer that it supposedly had. No matter how much they try and innovate and launch new features, the premise of 'checking in' is forcing a user behavior - and sooner or later,

I suggest you change the 'slideshow' on the home page. I was expecting the entire site to be about the white boards and then seeing a 'download app in app store' threw me off. My confusion was cleared only when i clicked on the products pag

While I am no longer active on Twitter, I cant deny the fact that Twitter has become a massive distribution channel for content,links etc. There are two other such online distribution channels -- Google and Facebook. And they make lot,lot o

Give the Sequoia guys the benefit of doubt. They probably have seen something more (related to the product) that the rest of us havent or might be privy to other features in the pipeline. Obviously, they're a bunch of smart people who have

As someone who works in a deal-a-day startup, I can only describe your comment as naive. Deal a day sites seem very easy to implement technically, but trust me, thats only 10% of the equation.

actually, they're not that bad for gilt/hautelook etc. if you compare them with other online retailers. Most of the flash sales sites use some sort of dropshipping (brand / manufacturer ships goods to gilt/hautelook and they ship to custome
