You've mentioned your father and what he does a couple of times. Could you work alongside him for a bit - helping out, maybe. You'd see things that work and things that don't work. For your own stuff, maybe he could help you with the sales while you do some of the stuff you're stronger at. I'm...

No commitment. Cheap. Can be used just to put an ad up in a shop window etc. Anonymous. Won't be left lying around to embarrass the owner in the future. Doesn't have to be thrown away, of course.

According to digitaltrends (I can't post the link but it will be easy to find) almost a year ago they claimed 36 million users and growing. Facebook was over a billion. I wonder what's happened since?

Is it worth the effort? I suspect anyone who can find it there for free can find it somewhere else for free. Maybe inform the product creator and leave it at that? Maybe they aren't bothered themselves. You also said it's a previous version. I remember the days when computer magazines would...

Yeah, that's my judgement too. But you've more to go on than me. In researching, the only ones upbeat about them as far as I can tell are those trying to sell them to businesses. So they have to be. Do you know what types of numbers we're talking about? Say a flyer that's done reasonably...

Do people still scan QR codes (if they ever really did) in the UK? What I'm looking for is anyone with any stats they have on recent usage, assuming the qr code is reasonably well presented - eg on a flyer or something with some indication that scanning is going to be worth it. I know hardly...

Is this some type of secret language intended to confuse newbies? Or am I just being a bit dense here?

Two working protoypes (at 3:40) - that's a long way from real production. But I think it sounds pretty exciting, if they can make it work as a road surface. Big IF. Camber, grip, wear and tear and replacements, etc. We have these wonderful things in the UK called cats eyes - reflectors in...

So there's basically two different things meant by "autoresponder" reflected in the previous replies. Which one do you want? One is just an automated response to any email you get - like a "I'm away for a few days but will get back to you when I'm back". It's plain and simple. The other is...

I expect to have a a number of small mobile-oriented sites in a directory structure. (Don't know how many - starting from scratch here.) Each will be controlled by an individual small business or person (under different unconnected domains for different broad categories). Eg...

What doesn't make sense to me is why would they want to ban you if you were bringing in legit business for them? They wouldn't (surely?) want to cut off someone who is making them money and would go on doing so, without a reason. If you can explain it, I think you should. Maybe they'll reverse...

Whether he lives there or not doesn't matter. It's easy to confirm it for yourself in a minute on the internet. I just googled "unsolicited sms us". If you do the same then faster than it took me to type this, you'll discover that very definitely, yes it is illegal in North America.

But $1000 a month lost has got to hurt! Is it really to late? Can't you offer a humble apology directly. Tell them you genuinely misuderstood what they wanted and say stuff got a bit mistranslated along the chain? Isn't it worth $1000 a month?

I couldn't see any substance really in what you wrote. Even knowing nothing about gaming I got to the end feeling I learnt nothing - and nothing that would make me want to see what else you had to say. Now you also mentioned doing all sorts of stuff to do with restaurants. So you've probably...
