Read. Set. Run!!!
It’s Monday. I’m caffeinated. Double shot espresso machiatto (spelled right?) running through my veins, and I’m pumped. Why am I so pumped? Caffeine helped, but I’m pumped because It’s widely rumored (i.e. on Mashable) that MySpace is adding “viral” features to its application platform. Which means, our applications now have a chance to infect and spread throughout MySpace’s social graph at a lightning pace, virally. Of course, I’m sure, every other application developer is waiting with bated breath to exploit this viral channel too, where users can “send messages” to their friends to add an application.
Just when our team thought that we could take a breather or two, we’re thrown into a frantic race, again. And when I say breather, I mean a day or two to rest and recuperate. In this space, everything moves fast, and success or failure is accelerated to weeks, or days, not months or years. A day or two late with your product, and your competition will be eating your lunch, dinner and dessert. There’s no rest for the weary that’s for sure. The stakes are high.
Get ready. Set. Run for your $#$#$ life!!!!
