If you find one, I’d greatly appreciate it if you’d share that info.

This is a very basic tool that I’ve wished for when working on previous projects. We built it because we needed it to specify hiring areas for employers on our job site, and now it’s published in case someone else needs it.

Are you saying that you don't think your product provides $30/month value compared to tooltip scripts like on Code Canyon, or compared to not having a web app tour at all?
- I think most web apps with users or revenue would get $xxx+ of value from a tour.
- I've thought about creating a tour for some of my sites, but I've always been too intimidated by the idea of mucking around with scripts that I don't understand. A WYSIWYG tooltip product might as well be the only tooltip product from my point of view.
I agree that you should be charging 10x-100x more.
Re:Knowing when to quit - an under-rated skill.

Yeah, the article addressed that pretty well:
VENKATESH: So one of the strange things we found out when we spoke to baseball players is that they have their own language for quitting. They actually quit. They just don’t call it that. They don’t call it quitting. They don’t call it giving up. But, they say, “You know what? I’m just going to shut it down for a while.”
VENKATESH: So, what does it mean to be a quitter as opposed to a “shutter downer”?
HALL: Probably the same thing, is just sounds better when you say ‘I’m just shutting down.’ You know, it’s like you’re not really doing it, but, you know, you are.

Agreed, being able to see multiple variations of the logo simultaneously would be nice.
I could see myself paying somewhere between $1-$5 for a zero-effort placeholder logo like this.
Re:Whitman Expected to Get HP CEO Nod After Markets Close

Back when I was doing e-commerce, a large percentage of my revenue was on eBay from '05-'09. I didn't realize how stagnant the platform was until John Donahoe replaced Whitman and finally changes were made to increase safety for buyers and differentiate sellers in the marketplace. I don't think ebay would have lost so much 3rd-party seller market share to Amazon if Whitman had been proactive.
I don't know what the HP board is hoping for by hiring Whitman as CEO, but if it's anything other than "steady as she goes," then I think they are making a bad choice.
