          How nice, the reverse question
          Back to the drawing board to find the, non-thought off yet, solution?

Lately, it seems like those people have moved away from GFY, so I'm back. I've been focusing on bulding my own internal traffic sources since I left.
                  i suggest you take a look again, if anything the number of people who realize that "illegal" tube sites are protected by the safe harbor provision of the DMCA has increased.

                  When you left people kept arguing with me on those legal points

                  now those who hired a lawyer to check it out, know that i was right about those legal points

                  love to see the tube killer you came up with

                  although i will be the first one to predict that it will fail.

                    I like the sound of that.

                    Steve, you're an inspiration.

                      Steve,
                      BTW... I have been trying to sign up for your solo girl board for a long time now and can not. Just tried again and got the same message:

                      Failed sending email :: PHP ::

                      DEBUG MODE

                      Line : 234
                      File : emailer.php

                      Please take a look at that. I would like to be part of that board as I have some solo projects going live soon. Thanks.

                        LOL indeed that is a funny post. And as Steve correctly said we all have an ego.

                        Still it was all cool as shit. I have only existed in this biz because of leaders who have gotten it done since day one.

                          I'm not so sure where you get the word "non-niche" from since I use the wor d "Niche" very much in my post .

                            We've tried various ideas to monetize the mobile market. It changes so fast, I haven't seen any home runs yet.

                                I've never compared net worth statements with any of them. Anyone can spend a million to make a million, its more about what you KEEP than what you SPEND. "Rich" is relative.
