I agree that some stuff is "stealth" but oftentimes "stealth" is a coverup for "we don't really have a business model. We'll try to get a lot of users and then figure out what to do." Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. Sometimes it remains to be seen - Meebo is a great example. Cool app with lots of traction but not sure of how they'll make a dime. I think you're spot on that I look like the anti-TC, but I have a real start-up that I work at and TechCrunch does have a lot of good articles, it's just trending towards crappier ones recently. @ vaspers - I don't eat out of a trash bin becuase I work at a place that makes money. You didn't refute any of my arguments and resorted to name calling. By your own definition of a troll that makes you one and lest you use your own (oh but you're calling me a troll), grow up and read my blog. Have any arguments? Write them down. Be constructive. @ bdb - thanks for the feedback. I agree that some stuff is “stealth” but oftentimes “stealth” is a coverup for “we don’t really have a business model.

Several Firefox extensions as well, some quite more complex than this one, but that's not important, is it? It's a nice extension, I just don't understant why would it cost $1,000 to develop. My guess is that something like that could be done in less than 10 hours - QA provided for free - which can be done by any seasoned programmer in his spare time (=cost zero) in just a few days. Now, if you're paying someone else $100/hour, then so be it. Anyway, my comment was more a joke than anything else. The irony market is in an all-time low I guess. Take it easy. #48 (vaspers the grate): A lot more than what you think. Several Firefox extensions as well, some quite more complex than this one, but that’s not important, is it?
