Yep we do it every year. It's also super expensive though, basically $50 for 2 minutes of time and a pic. Growing up my family could never afford it and I was sad as a kid that I didn't get to talk to Santa.

Why do you presume these were two separate projects? He built fandalism, then realized from running it that his users wanted something like distrokid. It is one big company called Pud Inc.

But he entirely bootstrapped fandalism too. So his argument is completely legit. Any one of those competitors could have built a fandalism for customer acquisition too. Anyway, his point is he did this stuff all as a one man shop with no funding. Nobody can dispute that. He is David.
the point is that he did it. just because you or 1st year undergrads could have done it is irrelevant because guess what, none of you did.

I just tried it out. agreed it is a great experience, but i wish they were more upfront about their pricing. I figured they were just charging the delivery fee on top of safeway's prices, but later realized they are also marking safeway up by 5%. I'm sure most people won't notice it, and most people wouldn't really care about it even if they did know about it (myself included), but somehow discovering it on my own I couldn't help but feel a little bit duped.
