The integrity of the founder to stay true to his mission, and not just chase the highest dollar has led to a consistently high quality product, that has real value.

I don't think the key is not to have advertising, but to be committed to an authentic vision.

thanks for the helpful round-up.

I know some people doing data entry jobs at groupon.

1- they hate their jobs. 2- many are hired as temp, and given absolutely crappy wages 3- they are being hired to do something that could easily be accomplished with some programming (i.e., taking data from one system and copy/pasting it verbatim into another system)

I like the 1080p indicator! It would be cool to add similar ones for other formats (CAM, SCREENER, 720, etc)

Yea, if Steve Jobs hadn't played around with Blue Boxes, where would we be?

I agree with you here.

My point of writing this post was the illustrate that in the pursuit of ultimate convenience we sometimes loose sight of the importance doing committing to new behaviors or overcoming our own laziness.

And technology should not enable laziness, or replace effort, but rather elevate and extend and magnify existing effort.

I am curious about anyone currently trying to build a communication tool, and their argument for why it is a better solution than email.

I thought it was a cool idea to be able to present my work history in a more in-depth and interactive format. While it may be overkill for a first glance, I think it is a nice option for someone who is interested in learning more. It almost takes the place of a first/preliminary interview perhaps. What do you guys think?
