Flying in from Seattle, WA So excited to attend this and meet amazing people.


manishm

I am flying from Seattle, too. Would you like to meet before we fly there? Let me know. Thanks.


from eastern washington.... how much was your ticket? also where did you find it?


Simple solution to this is to have a backup or failover to a non-AWS Datacenter too, basically don't be just dependent on one Datacenter. E.g. MS Azure/Google/Rackspace This not only spreads your risks but keeps your customers happy.


There's nothing simple about that. :)


Yea, but it should be done by providers like Heroku who can talk to multiple datacenters :)



Got the answer from here[1].

So what exactly did Google steal? The idea of grouping people together is not exactly new, and people have referring to their social groups as "social circles" for a long time now. Honestly I doubt they even saw your site—you have very little marketing or exposure, so they probably don't even know you exist.

As far as I'm concerned this is just sour grapes. To answer your question, just move on. You're reading far more into this than you should, and even if they did take your "ideas" there isn't anything you can do unless you patented them.
