Question for the business savvy: Is second-price auction model actually based on what your competitor is WILLING to pay? I don't get it.

How does this work? User searches 'broadcast live video'. Meerkat wants the ad spot but Periscope is "willing" to pay $1,000,000 per tap.

"Or goal in designing search ads was to give all developers the opportunity to reach more customers." Just like Super Bowl ads too, right?

CTO: We need to hire another QA resource & developer. CFO: OR we could save $ & dump 150k into search ads. Taps don't need health insurance.

(1/2) When I joined I couldn't figure out how a crash riddled app w/ shitty UI was ranked #20 in the app store.

@KoriDHandy from a profit strategy SURE but not sure the 9-year-old developer Tim Cook highlighted has the allowance to pay for ad space. -

@RebeccaSlatkin I've dabbled in it to see if it works and it does, but it's not sustainable for indie devs, or small startups -

@RebeccaSlatkin These people will ask for 20K and get your app in the top 50 in the apps store, it's insane, but large companies pay to stay -
@KoriDHandy@RebeccaSlatkin they also fall instantly as soon as they stop paying. Click-farms suck.

@RebeccaSlatkin no minimum bid… I’ll take sustainability for $.0003
