    Pokemon Go Game Discussion - Opportunities?

    HOT! 
    Watching it only because it introduces the general public to augmented reality. I can see how AR can and probably will make eCommerce more robust. Overall the game might be a fad, but AR is just getting started ...

    "Relay" by Stripe - One click purchasing across mobile apps

    SAAS / APPS WEB/DIGITAL 
    For us eCommerce guys: Could be a great way to sell on mobile - specifically Twitter (not just on Amazon)...finally. It also lets people buy straight from the ads that run in mobile apps. http://www.theverge.com/2015/9/14/9323735/stripe-announces-relay-single-way-to-pay-within-mobile-apps...

    Discussion on "Grow first, monetize later" philosophy

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I'd echo "it depends". With those type of high-risk, high reward tech companies, you most likely have VC funding, traditionally VC's are willing to wait on the profitability in hopes of "figuring it out", an IPO or a takeover. Think Tesla, Google, Amazon (usually runs at -2 - 2% PM...

    Is Reddit Imploding?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    One of my favorite websites on the web right now uses a voting system like Reddit has, unlike Reddit the layout is nice and clean and the individuals who can leave a comment are limited and selected by the founders. This keeps the comments and dialogue clean and intelligent. I agree with MJ...

    Thoughts on Periscope ...The most important social app since Facebook

    MARKETING 
    I get what you mean, some people on it have been broadcasting non-sense but I'd assume that eventually most people won't be producers, they will just consume and like Twitter, you have the option to follow who want. Twitter and FB started out this way (with people tweeting and posting things...

    Thoughts on Periscope ...The most important social app since Facebook

    MARKETING 
    haha! They have actually been doing a pretty good job of banning people who are doing drugs or showing nudity during the stream. I saw this one live feed of an upcoming comedian flash the camera, she got banned but she was able to convince them to let her back on the app. They did get into...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I did a search and did not see this video posted here yet but this some amazing stuff! The entire clip is worth watching but they drop in to Dubai around the 6:30 mark. I need to get to that city someday! Oh, and the jet pack is amazing as well.:)

    What would you do differently ?

    This. and I feel like we created another job for ourselves at first, heck I still feel like that sometimes with our main product, so every product we introduce now, we make sure it's possible to detach the entire process from our time relatively quickly.

    why is europe doing this?

    I cover macro economics in my day job. In general, European countries dislike change, are much more conservative in nature than the US, and don't look at entrepreneurship and innovation in the same positive light that the US/most of Asia does. Look at like Greece, there were literally riots in...

    Does anybody know this 25y/o Bugatti driver?

    EXECUTION 
    I'll help you out. It took me 3 seconds to find out what he does. Restaurants, wine and real estate (did he begin wealthy?) He (his car) was also involved in this prank: Not sure how this will help you...complete waste of time to follow someone like this. However, if you find a...

    Apple Watch... Yea or Nay?

    HOT! 
    @rwiman ..awesome post! Apple seems to get new products "right". No company does consumer products better than Apple. They literally take over the market with their revolutionary products and then other companies make variations of those products (ie: iphone, ipod, ipad)...each one of the...

    Game Development Fastlane?

    EXECUTION 
    I'd say game development can be "fastlane" to the extreme: Minecraft’ creator Markus “Notch” Persson has just closed on a $70 million home on tony Hillcrest Drive in Beverly Hills. The 23,000-square-foot, Contemporary-style home, with a wall of glass that provides a 280-degree view of the City...

    8 Eyewear: From Idea, to Launch, to Growth (And Quitting the Job)

    IDEA 
    Awesome! I'm sure you're thinking this...but maybe sportswear targeted to extreme sports? motocross, wakeboarding, skiing, MMA, kinda goes along with your brand. Maybe niche down and focus on one sport at first, that seems to work best for these clothing companies. I'm huge into snowmobiling...
