"Reuters reports on iPhone developer Tapulous, the team behind the popular Tap Tap Revenge applications, noting that the small company is reportedly bringing in nearly $1 million per month in revenue. The success of Tapulous, which boasts only 20 employees, illustrates the ability of small development firms dedicated to the iPhone to carve out profitable niches for themselves in the App Store." - Sam from Bookmarklet

"There are three key mantras that describe Facebook’s engineering culture Move Fast and Break Things – The company encourages people to take risks and innovate even at the risk of jeopardizing the stability of the site. It is important to them to not become risk averse because this is often the downfall of companies as they grow. Huge Impact with Small Teams – Most features and underlying systems on the site are built by teams of one to three people. They have a metric of users per developers that they are particularly proud. They claim that at Facebook they have 1 developer for every 1.2 million users which is better than most industry leaders including Google (1 developer per 190,000 users), Amazon (1 developer per 96,000 users) and Microsoft (1 developer per 75,000). [Ed. Note – not to be defensive but this metric seems weird to me and it wasn’t clear how it is calculated.  ] Be Bold and Innovative – self explanatory" - Sam from Bookmarklet

D'un point de vue strictement marketing, oui ça peut faire du sens et ça peut aider certaines gens à vendre leur salade mais d'un point de vue analytique, ça ne fait aucun sens. Correlation does'nt imply causation.. - Sam

"HOME is a 2009 documentary by Yann Arthus-Bertrand. The film is entirely composed of aerial shots of various places around the Earth. It shows the diversity of life on the Earth and how humanity is threatening the ecological balance of the planet. The movie was released on June 5th 2009, simultaneously in cinemas all over the world, on DVD and on YouTube. Its release on the same date in 50 countries is a world record for any film release in history. The film is 100% free and no profits will be made from its release or future showings. What is more, it's copyright-free, which means it can be freely copied, distributed, broadcast etc. - as a whole and in parts." - Sam from Bookmarklet
