We tend to throw the baby out with the bathwater when something doesn't work out. So I hope Spot.Us succeeds spectacularly, but I hope more that we learn something from the experience.

I am aware of the criticisms and skepticism. In fact, I try to remain skeptical as well. But you are 100% correct - spot.us is an attempt to see how much we can get done without advertising. Thanks Daniel
