If you don't get it, then why do you need to know? Obviously it wasn't clear enough to attract your attention, so why waste your time with a product that can't even explain itself clearly?

That's my thinking anyways.

He got my attention some how. That's why I'm interested on this :)

But he didn't convince me about what it exactly does? That's why I just asked.

Sometimes this discussion might help him to create a good web copy for http://app.net and get more paying users for his product. (I think there may have lot of people like me)

This thing called curiosity.

It's not a bad trait to have, actually.

The wording bothers me because I'm nitpicky.

If your talent was truly unlimited, you could do every startup.

If your money was unlimited, then you would probably get assassinated.

I'd like to see exactly how complex they can get. Like, maybe all the major cities in the world or something.

already posted, please dont double post

Amen, you can't just wait until the ball stops rolling to call your bets. That's not how it works.

Gotta be Rainman

Money doesn't mean quality. Often it means the reverse.

He's not making the argument that money is worthless. He's making the argument that funding doesn't imply technical excellence. Perhaps as a corollary: technical excellence doesn't even imply funding or any other form of financial success (but it sure helps).

I'm sorry to downvote, but your comment is rude and doesn't reply to the parent at all. This is not how discussions are made on this site.

Enjoy Meteor and have a nice day.

I'm pretty sure that Windows has had a lot more money poured into it than Linux has. But I'll stick with Linux thanks.

Well, develop a program for Linux, and then for Windows. The Windows one will net you more. I'm a Linux dev as well, but I know how things are, I'm not a narrow minded dipshit.

This is not generally how things are done here.

You've taken my argument (money!=quality), and decided to counter it with 'you can make more money developing a windows app than a linux app'. Perhaps you should go into politics... Or go back and re-read the thread... perhaps you'll see how badly and incoherently you come across.

That money is used to make their business more proficient, not necessarily to make the best framework. It is possible that creating the best framework is one stepping stone to making the business proficient, but it is not a given that they will take that approach.

Yes, but that diff is completely non-technical.

So don't discount anything yet...

Wasn't Kevin Rose previously thought to be "more impressive" than reddit's founders...

I am not picking a side - i am saying that these are factors which may equate to nothing or everything and it is far too early to call...

170,000,000 lessons.

"We contend that"

No. You cannot contend against 170 million.

Well, it's completely ambiguous. Why is your land page not an explanation of what your product is?

It seems this point is coming through clearly. I think maybe I was too close to the project when I wrote what it did.

See above comment for a description!

Thanks for your feedback.

I think social gaming is doomed by default. A person navigates to Facebook or Twitter because each company has identified itself and has locked in to the consumer. Even GhostTown+ has locked in as a personality based around being a social-er Skype. Seeing games and stuff is just a sideshow. People don't go to social networking sites to play games. It's possible to force this behavior (Zynga), but it's been shown and realized that it can't be sustained, and will eventually burn out. (ZYNGA)

Twitter uses Scala for most backend stuff...
