@CasJam thanks for sharing that Brian!

@thomasfuchs I hate when that happens.

@asmartbear I wonder if a better saying is: "ideas are nothing without leadership". Execution is the product of a good leader + good team?

@_BMF_ in that case, the salesperson should get the credit. ;)

@mike_hasarms I don't believe it.

A young programmer working 14 hours a day, and making a "startup" salary is also taking a risk.

If "ideas are nothing without execution" how come Silicon Valley's founders usually get the credit, and not their teams?

@justinabrahms sweet! Good work! @SendGrid

@pmarsh hahaha. Yes! In multiple columns, perfectly set. ;)

RT @EliLanger: You have 135,000 followers?! That's great, but you follow 85,000 people, social media influencer.

@A_Farmer yup. People print copies to remind themselves how the software works, or they print reports to take to meetings.

@homakov as in: "can you make this page / report / screen / output" printable?

As ridiculous as it sounds, if you're going to sell software to the enterprise, "printer friendly" WILL be a feature request.

@chadkoh Alberta!?! Who would have thought. They're supposed to be a bunch of oil-guzzling polluters! ;)

@brandonhilkert @amyhoy @patio11 @nathanbarry this is too funny.

The real question is: which one did you open first? ;)

@madebyloren you're welcome.

@ttimsmith MySQL?

@SweatingCommas every summer is like that here man. I'm telling you, it's paradise.

@SweatingCommas I'm in the Okanagan valley. It was 97 F today!

@JamesAddison phew. You just saved my show from Satan.

I'm sweating like a... man who's really warm.

Ack! Somebody follow @productpeopletv quick!

Want to build your own thing? @jason's interview with @tobi of @shopify is inspiring: http://thisweekinstartups.com/thisweekin-startups/shopify-ceo-tobias-lutke/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+twist-audio+%28This+Week+in+Startups+-+Audio%29

@ryancarson ummm... I thought you were getting this tattooed to your chest.

Of all the things @patio11 has taught me, this one sticks out the most: http://buff.ly/15VtYrC

@amyhoy wow. Print's not dead! Congrats @nickd!

@earthlingworks @amyhoy totally; reminds me of a lot of bad advice: "Beware! You don't know what it's like out there! Stay put, and be safe"

@earthlingworks yeah; a bit self-serving on one hand / but a dose of realism on the other?

@thomasfuchs does it involve selling digital stickers?

@Jason have you read Seth Godin's take on this as well? http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2013/08/the-choke-point.html

@amyhoy desperation.

Desperation causes folks to do silly things.

(I know this from experience)

@amyhoy lol. Stop. omg. You're hurting my stomach with all these...

@amyhoy YES!!!! DIGITAL SLAP BRACELETS!! It's perfect! To go around your digital arm. ;)

RT @amyhoy: @mijustin SLAP BRACELETS.

Stickers, stickers, stickers. The key to monetization for every new social media app is stickers?

Eventually, Facebook, Google, etc... all need a "choke point" - they control your attention so they can monetize. http://buff.ly/14cSdxA

@rrhoover I'm with Godin on this one. http://bit.ly/15StL8A

@rrhoover money... Where does the money come from?

Awesome! @mullalatweets just provided a Serbian translation for "This is a web page" http://buff.ly/19fA1vM

@avclark aww dammit. http://justinjackson.ca/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/n40351310856_15.jpg

@patio11 hahaha. A kanban board would be helpful in this situation.

Just found my 8 year old son's to-do list for August 5th, 2013.

@iChris @avclark hahaha. I thought you killed that show?

So far I only use it for sharing drafts; I generally write right in WP or notepad.

@avclark You can create edits as well. Yup. Edits are "forked" until I "merge" them. (Like Git)

@mullalatweets here's the translation! Should I say this is the "Serbian" translation? http://justinjackson.ca/words_serbian.html

.@mennogazendam just helped translate the "Words" essay into Afrikaans. Thanks Menno!

@avclark @iChris @ttimsmith Funny, I have an unpublished post about Bezos' wealth / AMZN stock.

@BenedictEvans do you think investors are wise, given that Amazon is hiding all the cards?

@BenedictEvans just read your Amazon post. Interesting! I've been working on this draft for the past couple of days: https://draftin.com/documents/106182?token=9aG6KSFjs6xvr1cmz_3eR8UO_QKxqh95X6JoCzpukBAIUitda_2iKhlT84fE-CCjbiKIiDAORQg55BR8eY9x6NM

@mullalatweets read it. Thank you!

@amyhoy odd, I haven't had any of my emails go into the promotion tab yet. Maybe our IPs at @industrymailout haven't been flagged… (yet)

@amyhoy it must be based on a content algorithm; I'm wondering if certain keywords set it off?

@amyhoy Interesting: your emails marked at "Promotion" in new Gmail tabs.

@mullalatweets most have been sending me HTML or plain-text via GitHub, Dropbox, or Google Docs.

@ttimsmith just remember: they have a big team, public funding, and they've been at it for 18 years!

@itengelhardt thanks! I'll check it out tomorrow.

@luckyryan hmmm. That seems crazy to me.

Do you think that valuation is merited?

@gauravmc thanks for replying!

What seems odd with Bezos is that this isn't "earned" money. His salary is quite low

Anyone want to give me some feedback on a post I'm working on? https://draftin.com/documents/106182?token=9aG6KSFjs6xvr1cmz_3eR8UO_QKxqh95X6JoCzpukBAIUitda_2iKhlT84fE-CCjbiKIiDAORQg55BR8eY9x6NM

What kindergarten SHOULD be teaching our kids is how to take good photos when they steal dad's iPhone.

Sheesh.

Is this native advertising?

@kenromano yes.

And the entire newspaper industry. ;)

If your business is dying, nostalgia and sentimentalism are two good ways to put the final nails in the coffin.

Call me old-fashioned, but "record sales" don't mean much unless they're also paired with "record profits".

Brainstorm for profitable journalism:
