How Has Product Hunt Become Such a Critical Startup Website?

How Has Product Hunt Become Such a Critical Startup Website?

By Mark Suster on June 12, 2015

Product Hunt. It seems out of nowhere it has become the go to website for startup companies to launch their new products or businesses. It reminds me a lot of how TechCrunch felt in 2006. It was the place that every startup knew they HAD TO be in order to attract initial users and also […]

Is Reddit’s Decision To Kill Off Remote Workers A Good Idea?

Is Reddit’s Decision To Kill Off Remote Workers A Good Idea?

By Jacob Morgan on October 6, 2014

The popular user generated content site reddit just killed off their remote worker program and issued a mandate that everyone must move to San Francisco or they are no longer going to be employed by the company. Clearly this is causing a lot of discussion and while I don’t think we have the exact details […]

Does the Internet really need a Delete Tool?

Does the Internet really need a Delete Tool?

By Dan Morrill on May 8, 2013

Does the Internet really need a Delete Tool? Every once in a while someone comes along with an idea that makes sense, but given the value of the data we put out there for governments, employers, and marketing folks, I don’t think a delete tool for the internet is going to happen. I am sure […]

The Misstep of Quora and The Importance of Trust Amongst Your Community

The Misstep of Quora and The Importance of Trust Amongst Your Community

By Mark Suster on September 10, 2012

You know the old saying about trust … “It takes years to build and seconds to destroy.” And once destroyed it is very difficult if not impossible to repair. You need to be the guardian of your own reputation. You need to constantly ask yourself whether your actions in rapidly scaling an online community are […]

Mesh net Darknet plans over on Reddit in response to SOPA

Mesh net Darknet plans over on Reddit in response to SOPA

By Dan Morrill on November 28, 2011

Image by cambodia4kidsorg via Flickr Just thinking about the difficulties in rolling out a network is enough to make anyone’s head spin, but the boffins over at Reddit are thinking about doing just that in a direct response to SOPA. While this is an interesting idea there are some security things they are going to […]

Europe VS Facebook the data deluge edition

Europe VS Facebook the data deluge edition

By Dan Morrill on September 28, 2011

Trolling Facebook is in high fashion today as Reddit users swamp Facebook with requests for individual user data. It would be awesome to know what Facebook knows about you, and to get an idea of just how popular this idea is, check Slashdot this morning. What is interesting though is out at Europe-V-Facebook.org website they […]

I am not sorry that Digg is slowly dying

I am not sorry that Digg is slowly dying

By Dan Morrill on March 20, 2011

Digg has always been problematic for me, and watching it slowly fade away in favor of other systems like Facebook, Twitter, even Reddit has its advantages. While Louis Gray points out that Digg seemed to peak in 2007, about the time the AACS and DMCA takedown happened, Digg really faltered after that event, and never […]

Mafia Sourcing – How Insiders Game User Generated News for Money

By Mark Suster on September 1, 2010

The Web.  Open, democratic, leveling, freeing information from closed networks.  The wisdom of the crowds. Or so it seems. I originally came from the entreprise software world (for 10 years) and before that I was in mobile & telecoms (8 years) so the last three years of immersing myself in consumer Internet, digital media & […]

Why Technical Communicators will need a Enterprise 2.0 Content Curation Strategy

By Mark Fidelman on May 26, 2010

Ever wonder how Wikipedia maintains such a high degree of quality material on any given subject?  They have an army of unpaid content curators.   They also have you.  The all-volunteer team of curators is constantly checking new submissions to ensure they meet  the rules that Wikipedia established that were designed to prevent self-promotion, that articles […]

Why I Quit Reddit – Actually, Reddit Quit Me

By Zoli Erdos on March 4, 2010

Three years ago I was quite active on Reddit – at least for a while, until I realized just how manipulated it became. I’m not really holding it against reddit, the same happens on Digg and probably on all similar sites – nothing new here, you’ve probably read all this a thousand times, so I […]
