Re:Ask HN: Beaten to the punch by a competitor, advice? by jonny_noog on Thursday September 11, 2008 @09:07PM (#301975)
I would definitely suggest that you not give up development of your idea.

As someone else has already said, learn from your competition and make your product better as a result.

If the idea you're working on is a good one, then you're almost bound to have competition. So I see competition as a sign that I'm on the right track.

Keep at it! You just have to make your implementation a little bit better than the other guy.
