Oh I see... well right now our focus is in sharing contacts easily and keeping the parties connected. We do provide an organizer that is powered by search, ex: "PHP developer" will find contacts that has PHP development skill-set. What's in

Very well designed indeed. Since so many people are raving about the design, is it really that important to launch an app with very good design or is that something you can iterate on? I am always interested to see the comparison on app per

Don't ever get a domain with .xxx if you aren't going to create what it's meant for. Damn site is blocked at my work place.

Hate it. A decent developer based out of United States will not be able to work out the prototype for anywhere near $500. That means you open doors for off-shore devs/companies to bid and try winning the project, acting exactly like other h

I don't see a point in releasing the dates 6 months before the event. I think we all know the approximate dates. It's not like you can block those dates and go out purchasing flights and hotel. Nothing is for sure until a pass is bought. An

I don't understand why Airbnb was considered as a crazy idea and I hear literally everyone refer to it as an example of crazy idea. I always thought it was a genius idea from the first time I heard about it. But the way I see things, it doe

It all comes down to what you are building and how your target audience will interact with it. Being mobile first is definitely hard when you are trying to penetrate into a sea of tough competition in the market especially if there is bette

Iteration doesn't really happen daily or weekly. It's about gathering enough data and the making changes on monthly bases maybe. In my experience I learnt that it's easier and faster to build an iphone app (no fragmentations, no jelly beans

The way I see it, if your product is technical then .io is fine. But if you eventually want to market to every tom dick and harry then you better get a .com. Another strategy is to get a .io until you can afford a .com. Also, if you can mar
