How come every FlightFox post here feels like spam? :-(

Matt & Pierre, thanks for your thoughts and sorry that this ended up being a rookie mistake. I have a rel canonical good to go. Thanks again for your time.

I've even gone in to Alexa to start verifying all of our back-links. All of our links are from blogs / news / twitter , et al. That said, it doesn't mean Penguin didn't hurt us. Algorithms have corner cases.

I agree. This seems at this time to focus on the already easy to install/configure parts (a Ruby build and Rails gem) and not the harder items (like Nginx).

I feel the current state is summed up pretty well on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clickwrap

It's a case of put your money where your mouth is

Just for what it's worth: you are presuming China is backing Iran for the long term, when they could be using it as a bargaining chip against a different conflict with the US / western powers. E.g. Tibet, Xinjiang, Taiwan, the Koreas, to name the ones just bordering / within China. That said, I agree Iran has acted rational to their means, but as the country tends dangerously close to provoking an Israeli attack, one might alter that viewpoint.

It's unfortunate with all the tracking and data-mining going on that once information enters the public sphere, it's there to stay forever. Why can't we DMCA our own private information?

Wish more apps would support an Html5 experience, but the functionality isn't there yet. Is this just for SXSW or a supported product?

It's interesting to see brands adjust to social media. Pinterest is killing it right now by exploiting sharing in a way that makes sense to consumers. I wonder what techniques might work for selling on Facebook? I suppose getting things into the newsfeed or likes on specific items to be a crucial first step.

I've been looking for something like this. But what can you do about Facebook and LinkedIn and the websites that are sharing my information in the first place? What happens when these websites pull my information again? Figure this out, but I like where you're headed.

This is the sure sign of a bubble when a finance guy can quit his job and be funded in six weeks. Awesome idea, but.. really?
