Re:Ask HN: Is it practical to have many (4+) simultaneous co-founders?

Bare careful of too many cooks in the kitchen. It's tough to make quick, strategic decisions when you have so many people with an equal say.
Ask yourself if all these key people are really founders, or just the first employees with stock options?

Yeah, that's a great point. But I like that Apply is copying too. All the mobile OS platforms should copy each other's best features. It pushes them to make even cooler platforms. In the end, the users win.

In the browser and on my phone I use: Google Reader, Twitter, and a little bit of Facebook. My Google Reader has something like 150 sources and I generally skim the headlines of all them together. If I've tapped that source I'll head to Techmeme and HN directly.
On my iPad I subscribe to The Economist and I also use Flipboard (again, with Google Reader).
Via shared links on Twitter and Facebook I generally end up on the NY Times a few times a week, as well as the WSJ and Wired.
