Re:Google Buys Slide for $182 Million, Getting More Serious ... by davcro on Thursday August 05, 2010 @01:17AM (#1577288)
Quiz Monster and Friend Interview have a bigger userbase both international and in the US than Slide's apps. Granted I'm only looking at FB here, but IMO that is the only social network that matters. I work solo and believe that my apps could be run with just one educated rails developer. Isnt that a better buy than a smaller app that needs 100 eningeers?

And I'm not some special case here. There are a handful of Indy fb devs with bigger apps than mine.

This deal makes zero sense to me.

Buy some foosball tables and hire some engineers. You'll be rolling in it in no time.
