I’m Coming, I’m Coming!
…up for air. Phew!
Is anyone else sickened by the dot-com-bubblish social-networking two-point-oh! sites popping up lately? I mean, come on all you Ajax fondling code jockeys. It’s been done to death! Well, memetrackers have at least.
I thought Ajax was supposed to expand things? It may in terms of cool stuff you can do with pages and backend to frontend interaction, but everyone seems to be copying the same old stuff and making it look different.
Where’s the imagination? Where’s the creativity? Where’s the next thing that’s going to make the Yahoo!s and Googles want to part 8 figures of their investors hard earned money?
Sheesh, I’m seeing 3 year old scripts over at hotscripts.com that have the potential to do more than what some of the former art majors turned valleywag headline-fodder wannabes are doing, or at least making public.
Anyway, I’ve had my bloodshot eyes superglued to some php scripting and java (both the code kind and caffinated kind) for 3 days now. I’m even thinking about cranking up an old computer I have here and installing a scripting and development enviroment on it (apache, php, etc.).
The testing site is online behind a password and it’s looking like the core functionality is working. And if it doesn’t fly in the media world I’m fretting not, ’cause I can always strip it down and sell it to the internet marketing crowd as the next big AdSense/web page builder.
I may do that anyway - sell 500 copies for $297 and use the $150,000 or so to fund the development of the real thing
Hmm, now there’s an idea…
