Chartbeat clone, but they can't afford to give it away for free.

For now.

Google products are free--long enough to destroy a poor startup. Shame on Google.

Real names = self censorship.

Should have said brand-able, sorry. But my point still remains, names are extremely important and $250 is relatively nothing. Fix a script for someone and you'll get that much.

Skype, Facebook, Zynga, Twitter, Jawbone and Box.net are all in the Andreeson Horowitz portfolio. He seems to be doing fine.
He bought FB way too late than most others. What valuation did he buy in Zynga, Twitter etc than we'll talk? Jut because they're 'hot' now doesn't mean that they'll make him money later.

google+ is dead. Google doesn't have the talent.
They have the talent, they just aren't sure what to clone.

Andreesen pointed out recently, it was pretty common ten years ago for startups to sink tons of cash into Oracle
And Andreessen should be listened in this field because.... ? Serious corporations go for IBM, Oracle, SAP and the likes. They want stability and someone to show up and fix when things go wrong. Most of the 'startups' Marc is talking about, will be not be here 5 years from now.
What was Marc's last good investment? Ning or Groupon?

I remember reading that Ellison takes a lot of things personally .

acabal, $250 is a steal. Cut on beer and coffee for a month and there you have it. Branded domains can go for a lot more

True to a point but there is no love lost between Google and Microsoft. Google tried to drive Microsoft out of business with the Google Pack, Chrome OS etc. No serious company would turn $5 for each Android.
Apple is no fan of Google either, nor are the content and publishing companies and the list can go on.

The flyers were probably printed before Samsung decided to pay $5 - $15 for each Android they sell to Microsoft.
itswindy | 14 years ago | on: Google / Samsung October 11th event: Ice Cream Sandwich and Galaxy Nexus?
It's going to be odd to see Microsoft, Google and Samsung in one stage, celebrating Android.
Don't be surprised if Microsoft placed HTC and Samsung Android smartphone ads on their homepage, it's very lucrative.
itswindy | 14 years ago | on: Google invests $75M (more) into home solar power.
They are probably subsidizing them. 20 years is a long time, especially when people move often and technology changes.

Those that sold shovels during the gold rush, made money too.
There's a video of Bill Gates making a mathematical case why solar will not solve our problems. We need another nuclear plant, the name escape but I think it uses all the nuclear waste.
itswindy | 14 years ago | on: Google invests $75M (more) into home solar power.
The financing approach makes a lot of sense for Google. They can make a lot of money without building any sort of infrastructure.
Solar is more hype than anything, and it's good press. Is anyone making money from solar?

My most important one, roboform is coming as 'will be disabled.'

I like this BUT addons need to catch up and for many it's impossible due to such frequent changes.

Huge benefits for G Drive! For example they will even scan the contents and let you know /IRS about any tax discrepancies for example.

Clearly you're trying to imply that some country is behind this, so feel free to just say it out loud instead of being cute about it and wasting everyone's time.
It's an internet forum, not a court of law. OK? I am speculating. When someone does something this big, I tend to think of someone way out there, like those that tried to hack Google, defense companies etc. For all we know they did to get the info from one company, steal CC from a million of them, or just have the option to take million of sites offline. Relax.
