Currently there is no FB alternative. There will be eventually. There is nothing that I can think of that has no alternative. Even Google has Bing which is viable. FB has none.

if Google has taught us anything, it is that this is a bad idea. Sooner or later this service will shut down as it has no business model taking your app with it. It should be available as open source to deploy if you need to do so in the fu

Yes in theory but most work is organized around salary and freelance work is usually more work instead of a salary, so worse. The salary structure forces the type of logic I am writing about above. Every company wants to make as much profit

In my opinion the very ideas propping up the idea of work and the economy are flawed. They are flawed because work is not designed to meet human needs. Instead the output of work is designed to meet human needs. But people are so busy worki

What I wanted is to run Windows in a Virtual Machine on my Linux box. Can I do that? Not without paying Microsoft $150. You can get their trial to run for 90 days, but it sucks having it expire and shut off after a few mins.

Make 300k off a website and people make a competitor to mock the value you delivered. People are stupid and you can't win. They will always try to force everyone to race to the bottom, because if they can't have it why should you?
