Foursquare isn't about checkins anymore, it's about discovery and the TL;DR. Yelp users love to go on and on and on in their reviews while Foursquare's ratings aren't review-driven though I've found them just as acc

I think most people realize this anecdotally but the switching costs are too high for many to remove themselves. Personally, I have many connections exclusively only on FB - I don't have their emails, phone numbers, etc - that I remain

Eventually Uber will fire all drivers and replace them with self-driving cars. In many ways Uber is currently doing things that don't scale with regard to relying on humans to drive customers. Eventually the cost-intensive humans won&#

Non-technical co-founders need to avoid this way of thinking too. It's detrimental to the personal relationship and any potential for a positive outcome.

Austin, TX is at the cutting edge of the edible insect trend in the states. I had the pleasure of grabbing some mead and enjoying some snacks with a bunch of the companies down there. Anyone doing anything with cricket-based foods in the US

It's a monopoly because of multiple factors (some of which you've expounded on already. A main reason Google's search engine is a monopoly is due to switching costs and the fact that all of our habits are built around using i

I've been trying out Foursquare in place of Yelp when I'm looking for a place nearby (a good place to get an iced tea for example). It has performed well though I have yet to use it extensively enough to determine how it truly sta

Sorry for not being clear. I mean the pricing for multiple tiers of an item I'd be selling. The link you shared (the page looks great) has a button that says "Buy" then takes me to a page with the various pricing options. Doe

I clicked on a few links for Paystr and couldn't find pricing information (even on the FAQ). Even a Google search yields nothing. It's a gorgeous layout but I don't think I can bring myself to sign up for a website where they
