Thanks for the marketing typo, on it.

I tried this and was really impressed. Removed the hassles of 1) finding a cleaner; 2) arranging a huge time window to be home (they text you when they are on their way); 3) guessing what cleaning products I need to provide; 4) guessing what language to speak.

I'm already familiar with what a cleaner is for so it was a small step for me to try this. Now that I'm in their system I'm much more likely to use Exec for things I've never considered hiring someone to do before.

For anyone who smelled a startup opportunity increasing pricing transparency in healthcare, check out Castlight Health. They were founded in 2008 to attack this exact problem and are making a killing targeting large employers.

There will be many of these, and deservedly so.

Airbnb = Craigslist competitor (#25)

Using mobile devices to facilitate a shared buying experience with friends is huge. This app is a first step into this wide open and potentially massively profitable space.

Discounting the future of the business from a landing page describing its very first private beta is not only mean-spirited but also shortsighted.

Is it just me or does this smell like a great social media job by Car2Go.com?

This is something I'm actively working on.

There's a lot of entrenched interests blocking this kind of innovation, but several disruptive forces at work (like massive iPad adoption amongst physicians) are enabling interesting approaches.

"...when you consider that better than 60 percent of Amazon's sales come from repeat customers--which implies that they're loyal..."

That seems to be the key figure missing from the Groupon discussion. If they are buying loyal users and customers, their mad-dash growth strategy would seem rational. If their retention is poor, it would seem more like a Ponzi scheme.

Thanks for the perspective. My impression from reading about Grigori Perelman was that almost all papers in arXiv are eventually published in traditional journals, for grant purposes, as alluded to by mechanical_fish. Maybe arXiv just needs to hire Scott Chacon (VP of R&D at GitHub).
