Does that mean it is not open for MERCHANTS outside the US or it won't take CARDS from outside the US? You may want to clarify this for potential customers.

It is like them in terms of features and functionality. A self-hosted option is appealing to companies that want something like Campfire/Hipchat, but want more control/security over their own data (they can host themselves behind their own

The jury's still out on whether or not it will work for us - we just launched today! :) This software sales model isn't new, but at the same time it is not widely used. Most people either go for hosted offerings or encrypt the source code.

I say "unfortunately" not because of PHP, but because other languages like Python and Ruby are still not as widely used. PHP's "upload-and-go" approach is a big reason for its wide success.

I guess time will tell if it was a good move or not. You don't have to be so cynical. ActiveCollab did this for Basecamp and it panned out pretty well for them.

Same reason people use Campfire and Hipchat?

Unfortunately, PHP is still the easiest thing for most people to setup and use, so that's what we went with for a self-hosted option. We are strongly considering a node.js version that would allow a lot more users. Is that something you mig

There are no software limits on users. It all depends on what your hardware and connection can handle. The Groupon dev team helped us beta-test it a bit, and it handles 100 users well with decent hardware on Apache (they were using an EC2 i

My overall reaction after reading this piece is: who cares? I don't put any big secrets or personal information on Google Groups, and I don't want to manage my own mail server. They have a good product that works, and I want to spend my tim

I use an Android every day, and my wife has an iPhone. The absolute biggest thing that annoyed me about using the iPhone after being used to the Android is the lack of a dedicated hardware back button. The problem you describe about an app

I think the root of the difference is indeed competition on iOS, and lack thereof on Android. The lack of any decent SEO app on the Android Market is the primary reason I made SEMTab in the first place. I think that is the biggest reason it

Thanks for the suggestions and critical feedback. This was the first release that I wanted to get on the app store/market as quickly as possible, so it has not been perfected yet. I am aware it doesn't have the best design/UI right now, but

I sell an SEO app ( http://semtab.com ) on both iOS and Android, and the Android version is outselling the iOS one by a wide margin. It caught me a bit off guard because everyone I know keeps repeating that iOS users buy more than Android

Scraping photos is a lot different than scraping data, I fully agree. But for the pictures, I am using Flickr's API, and it's not illegal. I have read the terms carefully, and since the site it not a commercial one, I am well within the pub

Wow, I have an incredibly similar experience. I made a PHP news script called "CzarNews" back in 2003 that was widely downloaded and used, and is still used on many sites today. I too am now a bit embarrassed by the amateurish-ness of the c

Those photos are gorgeous. I made http://autoridge.com and I had a lot of trouble finding good vehicle photos. I ended up using the Flickr API to pull in photos for both the website and the mobile app. Most of the resulting pictures are g
