  1. Prototype, fund, phase, user acquisition, traction, sell out.
  2. Reader grabs card data, modulates it, the mic-in audio port hears it, software analyzes it, merchant service processes it, then you tweet it
  3. It's like telling a city bus to stop only at Burger King instead of McDonald's and expecting everyone to pay extra for free ice cream.
  4. Iterate, get trolled, re-iterate. Ad nauseum. Maybe now AOL can finally compete. Good on them. TS on the shareholders, though.
  5. I, for one, like the new AOL logos. So what if a secretary came up with it on the fly and on the cheap? Welcome to valley startup culture.
  6. It's been a couple weeks and I still can't get Zynga to stop sending me text ads for more poker chips.
  7. Android logo is creative commons... That's one bad inheritance of open source traditions. Imagine if the iPhone icon is creative commons.
  8. PROTIP: People are buying $14 Starbucks holiday plastic tumblers and flipping them for $40 on eBay.
  9. You should probably break up with him. Cause next time you might not be so lucky to have some guy and iphone nearby telling him to stop.
  10. Clearly he cares more about his dinky silver Integra with NOS stickers and a spoiler than you & was willing to beat you over it.
  11. Dear girl at the Ralph's parking lot: I'm sorry that your bf jumped out of car when you accidentally swiped the speed bump looking pissed
  12. I should probably have all this figured out by now :/
  13. Fav time of the day. The streets turn gold.
  14. Creeping at startup weekend. Say hi.
  15. Girl, you shouldn't be wearing glitter clothes at the beach.
  16. But why am I telling you what you already know? I should be writing for HuffPo.
  17. Home is sweet. Babies are cute. Dogs are great.
  18. Someone whispered "she who shall not be named" is in LA...
  19. good hit piece on advertising, @weareyourfek
  20. "Lady Gaga" should give whichever PR firm "leaked" those "talent" show clips a "bonus" this Christmas.
