LaunchWeek

  1. Why is this feed getting so many new followers? We set it up to cover two events, which are now over.
  2. from @rafe Yammer wins top prize at TC50. Lesson: do one thing. Do it well.
  3. from @josh: Just spotted MC Hammer. He co-founded DanceJam and was an expert judge at last year's conference. He also had a few music hits.
  4. from @josh: Like a much bluer 37signals product that's super vertical.
  5. from @rafe iamnews reminds me a lot of Nowpublic
  6. from @josh: The demo pit winner is iamnews (www.iamnews.com) runner-up is Expensify (www.expensify.com)
  7. from @rafe "star rating means nothing." Say what??
  8. from @rafe GoodRec: New recommendation system that's like Yelp but with a more personal angle - ranks your friend's reviews highest
  9. from @josh: TrueCar's CEO looks eerily like Greg Kinnear.
  10. from @rafe GoPlanIt, new trip planning servce. BTW check out TripJane in facebook. Related, and awesome
  11. from @josh: The site is only covering "personal care and household chemical products" for now. Food you buy at the store coming soon.
  12. from @josh: GoodGuide's CEO just called it a "Page rank for products." The site still needs a "are you feeling lucky" button.
  13. from @farber Goodguide.com Big winner and could transform industry...what products won't kill you
  14. from @josh: iPhone app soon. Lets you see check the scores on the go and keep bookmarks like a shopping list. Snazzy.
  15. from @Josh. @Rafe and I are comparing our deodorant scores on GoodGuide.com. The good news is that they're still working right now.
  16. from @josh: You can add products you like to a shopping list then buy them off Amazon. Now they're analyzing @KevinRose 's desk at Digg.
  17. from @josh: If you're a Wired reader you'll recognize this in their "What's inside?" feature. This is that--on the Web.
  18. from @josh: GoodGuide up on stage with a really neat product. It tells you what's in the products in your house.
  19. from @rafe: Sadly, massive fail on the demo. System crash. Awww.
  20. from @rafe, and the first game is "Chaos War." So bascially this is an MMO with a somewhat different dev model.
