"Is their product useful and will they succeed?"

I think the following line should answer your question:

"Since Slice’s launch in May 2011, the service has processed and tracked over 25 million purchases,"

Sometime QA cannot re-produce some issues. This is very common in almost every company you go to. Our QA has access to log servers, and they try to provide the exception logs if they are available.

Congrats on your launch. I like the idea and the UI design is slick. Can you share more details about "It reached 250K+ members with only viral". Some pointers for rest of us would be great.

Which suggestion you followed to reach 250K member mark? Also, most of your traffic seems to be coming from Turkey. Could you explain bit about that?

I liked it. Its simple to use both for poll creator and people voting. It would be nice if you can capture the names of the people who are voting.

Mixmastamyk, thanks for your reply. The problem is if he learns python and lands next job which is completely .Net shop or Java shop, how would python benefit him there?

Since he is in valley I think it makes sense for him to learn Core Java with test automation tools like Selenium. What are your thoughts?

Looks like you are only supporting 1 web-cam? I recently purchased a IP PTZ cam from fry's which came with its free Android, iPad and web based application.

How are you planning on competing with those?

Lumberjack, thanks for the feedback. Our current phase only supports playing in our free lottery pools where users don't spend anything. We buy all the lottery tickets and put users in the lottery pool. If our lottery ticket wins then we will equally distribute the winnings among our users of that given pool.

In the next phase the biggest incentives users will have is to create their own lottery pools and play with their friends and family members by creating private pools. Instead of spending hundreds of dollars on lottery ticket to increase their chances of winning users will be able to share the cost of lottery tickets with their friends/family members. Together they can purchase more tickets, increase their chances of winnings and keep low out of the pocket costs.
