And what about when all TV is served over the internet? Or when all billboards are controlled over the internet? Or all magazines are displayed on epaper via the internet? 95% of advertising will be done over the internet, and if the author is too short-sighted to see that well then that speaks poorly on him. Of course if he had any insight maybe he'd be building something and not whining about it. He just sounds bitter because he's getting left in the dust.

Yahoo is a well managed company on the forward curve of web technology and I look forward to something that will kill the bloated and poorly backed software that is Google Chrome.
guys like this would be better off "hacking" their wrists.
I have a lot of sympathy for those guys, their ability to artificially pump stock prices brings a lot of value to the economy. Anyways my heart goes out to them.
lol wtf does this do? I know talent is tight in the valley right now but surely you can find someone who can write a meaningful splash page. I don't think my iphone servers coffee.
Affiliate marketing bro. I make six figures doing it. Not saying it's a great long term solution but in your situation you could turn a profit quite quickly potentially. Just look around at various affiliate programs and see if you can come up with a solution to add value to the customer experience. Maybe just a simple price comparison site. Then drive traffic to it, paid works well as long as you can do it profitably. If you can turn a profit on an Adwords advertising campaign you may well be on your way to a tidy income.
Do you have a paid subscription to Highcharts?

omg you got plagarized? omg on the internetz?? omg serialz???
It's the internet shit for brains. Lemme ask you: Ever downloaded a torrent? Ever hotlinked an image?
The content you wrote sits on a web page, written in html and served with the http protocol. Anyone can save your webpage as file on their desktop, copy it, put it in a torrent, whatever.
Getting plagiarized sucks but man up and understand the game you're playing here though you could argue that you do know the game by bitching about it on hacker news and reddit, that's a good place to bitch about such things, the girls here like to get worked about this kinda shit.
uh yeah reddit is a pos full of mediocre tools, I don't need some butthurt to write a blog post about it but thanks I guess.
So where do you search for engineers if you're a startup?
