I cant and wont do phone calls for many things. Everything has to be by email or text like skype, ect. Nothing about trust and purely about documenation so it can be referenced word for word later.
Yeah but where did you come in? Why you? Why were you working on a product that you had nothing to do with?
I just don't get it at all. Why did you give free labour and free time to a for profit company you had no stake in? See why we are confused?

I started building http://www.splatsearch.com A comparison engine with big plans to compare everything in the world. One online marketer and 2 developers building it. Currently the live version is a very different snapshop from the dev version which we roll out soon and just has 14 million sample products. We bootstrapped it and it probably just about profitable even though its barely live.
