Re:Spotify And Ford Team Together To Showcase Spotify’s First In-Car I... on Sunday September 11, 2011 @05:04AM (#2983517)

Wow...I am really glad Ford decided to do this. There is a huge advertising market in radio right now that a potential partnership between Ford and Spotify will expose. For people will no access to smartphones/data plans, this will finally be a chance for them to listen to what they want whenever they want on the road!

Re:Twitter closing another massive $400M round on Friday September 09, 2011 @02:09AM (#2977057)

I completely agree. Twitter's motto of simplifying their current product definitely steepens the hill to justify their value. But then again, the whole concept behind Twitter is a simple microblogging service. Very hard to monetize this unless they expand...

Quote: “We’re thinking about how we can simplify the product even further. That’s what makes it different. [We're looking] for what can we ‘edit’ out.” He said. “These other products are adding services and we are trying to simplify ours down.” [1]
