Probably want to internally build some products. Makes for much better returns when you own 50+% of a company vs. ~20% via traditional funding.

Android might never prove better. When/if it ever does then I will reevaluate and deal with being a fast follower rather than a first mover.
However, it is premature at this stage to state that Android is the better platform for startups.
Free apps do well on Android. Paid apps (Outright & Free + In App Purchases) generate more revenue on iOS. Being able to show traction is important for startups but, being able to show increased revenue is equally if not more important.
Until Android on a whole proves to be more lucrative to monetize apps, many developers will continue building iOS first (imho).
Too bad I'm over in the East Coast. Would love to have met you all! Have a great time.
iPad App works great and integrated extraordinarily well with the service. No limitations as far as I can see.
What use is 1Gbps when you are sitting behind the GFOC?
I agree wholeheartedly
This just shows how poor Google's think tank model of operation is. I mean how can all those people working on the Buzz team overlook this? With all their time spent analyzing which shade of blue they should use why not just ask people how they feel about an auto following model?
Worse in the sense that its diminishing the value of being an entrepreneur and CEO. For example, if PHD's were being handed out to kids a 40 year old's MBA is now depreciated. Same goes for the status and worth of the word and title CEO / Entrepreneur.
Fashions have definitely changed. Unfortunately, for the worse.
Wouldn't surprise me if this was an automated system that malfunctioned
Appreciate it! Any suggestions you might have?
