Always space in any market for competitors. Check out yipit.com for an aggregation of such deals.

For the most part right? I thought the argument myth #6, what you know matters more than who you know, was made pretty well. And we haven't really seen much of such advice.

I like the comment aggregator idea. Thought of it some time ago as well; it'd be really neat.

A patent?... Let's not get started here. Just do it.

Perhaps Apple TV debuted at the wrong timing. Google simply waited.

So by strategic relationship, would that be a less than 30% cut?

Key point of the article: Brainstorm on your own first, then collaborate/share your ideas with others in a group. Don't ever do the latter first.

Should be #1 on that list.
