The Card Shop Theory....
So Vincesanity and I have talked about this before and after looking at breaks of finest, I am wondering if this is true.
The theory is that card shops get LOADED cases and boxes while the large online retailers get the lesser filled cases. Seems crazy, but check out some of the finest breaks. We opened 10 cases total. Here is the breakdown of the hits: AJ Jenkins SP 2 Russell Wilson SP 2 Doug Martin SP 3 Devier Posey 8 Joe Adams 8 Stephen Hill SP 3 Brock Osweiler SP 3 Ronnie Hillman 10 Nick Toon 7 Bernard Pierce 2 Kendall Wright SP 2 Chris Givens 9 Jarius Wright 13 Michael Egnew 12 Robert Turbin 6 T.Y Hilton 9 Mohamed Sanu SP 1 T.J Graham 7 Matt Schaub 1 Isaiah Pead 1 Rueben Randle 2 Dwayne Allen 7 Brian Quick SP 1 Michael Floyd SP 2 Nick Foles SP 3 David Wilson SP 1 Justin Blackmon SP 1 Ryan Broyles 10 Coby Fleener 8 Alshon Jeffery SP 3 Torrey Smith 1 Lamar Miller 1 LaMichael James SP 1 Mohamed Sanu Gold Atomic Auto /25 Triple Rams Auto GU /10 Doug Martin Red Atomic Auto /10 Colt McCoy Red Auto Jersey /25 Trent Richardson auto patch /10 Mark Ingram Auto jersey /10 Michael Floyd Auto patch /10 AJ Green Red Refractor Auto jersey /25 Justin Blackmon Finest Moments Kendall Wright Gold Atomic Auto /25 Devier Posey Pulsar auto Patch /25 Brock Osweiler Finest Moments Auto If you go look at any case breaks in which they purchased from a physical store, you can see that their break blows any of our 10 cases away. Also if you look at the Exquisite breaks, most of them that came from the card shops were fantastic. It seemed as though each box anyone opened from a shop was able to make their money back. The ones now we are seeing from the online retailers seem to be AWFUL. What do you think of this theory? Do you think this could be true? |

I agree, I believe the ones that go to brick & mortar stores are called hobby direct, and the others are just called hobby, the hobby direct have better hits........ not sure it's like that with everything but I know of 2 or 3 releases I've seen that this was true......
everytime I buy something from my local cardshop I pull quality hits and money cards, every single time.
buying Andrew Wiggins, Karl-Anthony Towns, Marcus Mariota, Jameis Winston, Amari Cooper, Todd Gurley, Odell Beckham Jr. and Star Player RC bgs slabs. |

well I wish I had that kind of luck lol....seems the opposite to me, I rarely pulled quality cards at a brick & mortar shop, I think its just my luck though.....anyone that knows me personally knows that I have horrible luck

I haven't opened enough to pull much useful data...
...but my case of Finest with the Luck Jumbo Relic Superfractor and auto'd Tannehill Atomic Rookie /10 was from an online retailer. Albeit an online retailer which seems to have a physical card shop presence as well. Not sure how that would affect what I was sent. Yesterday I bought a box each of 2011/2012 R&S from my LCS. Nothing much in the 2012. But the 2011 had a Julio Jones 11/25 (eBay 1/1! ) with a massive patch auto...and some non auto'd Cam Newton patch out of /299. |

So your saying we shouldn't buy from Blowout because we won't get the best hits? I think you might have missed some of these threads
http://www.blowoutcards.com/forums/b...er-2012-a.html Now I have a theory about cards and best pulls, goes a little like this. In a way it agrees with you since I believe brick and moter shops get the first cases released.... Card companies know that the more exciting they can make something the better it will sell. They also know that cards are bought and sold on places like this and Ebay and other online retailers and see how the value in cards usually decreases with time. The card companies also know they have to make it seem like spending money on a hobby box will make you money so that they can continue to make the gamble worth it to the buyers. The understand that box breakers are not collectors, they are gamblers. Collectors are the people buying the cards the box breakers sell. The know why people bust boxes and cases. The people who do that think they are going to gamble and strike it rich and love the rush associated with opening a box. This is a gamble and since the card companies are the dealers like any good dealer they are going to make your first experience a great one so you keep coming back. So my theory is this....All card companies will front load the earliest cases produced with the best hits and will leave the worse hits out of the initial cases and ship them later. So as a gambler the very best shot you have at hitting the top cards come at the very first date of release and the likelyhood that you are going to hit a very valuable top chase card decreases the further away from release date you go. The initial first round of hits you see on ebay go for the most money and hence generate the most excitement and momentum and gets people talking. The higher the prices the first cards go the more people who waited around for them want to buy...the more momentum behind wanting to buy the more sales the card companies will get down the road. In essence the card companies have a strong vested interest in ensuring that the first cards seen from a new release are high dollar money making cards for the buyers. They know that when people see someone spend $100 and get back $3000 that will generate purchases so they cater the business around that. So in short if you want to buy some cards and open some boxes you better get them the day they come out for the best odds of hitting something nice.

I buy from hobby shops and also buy from Blowout Cards and all my best hits have come from the boxes that I have busted from Blowout Cards.

I've busted many cases from both BO and my LCS. From my observations, the quality of the breaks have been about the same. I see no evidence to support the card shop theory.
Furthermore, I think it would be borderline unethical for card companies to knowingly load up their products to sell direct to the card shops and sell the less-loaded ones to their distributors. |
09-06-2012, 03:35 PM | #12 (permalink) |
Actually, at my brick and mortor LCS, over the last nine months. I pull these: Absolute Aaron Rodgers jersey autograph /25, Limited Cam Newton Phenom Spotlight /25 (13 breaks in patch area), Sandy Koufax Marquee Museum autograph /10, 2012 Topps Archive Topps Original 1969 Hank Aaron autograph #5/5. These were pulled within the first couple of weeks when the product was released.
I do agree that products are front loaded to generate interest; it is a standard marketing strategy. Example- why do so many short prints, like with Topps variations, show up the first week and a half, then, it is very difficult to pull one. Monster pulls occur with randomness, yet, we have all seen cases that seem to be loaded versus normal distribution of big hits.
Enjoy card collecting, trading and selling. If it is not fun, why do it. http://s821.photobucket.com/albums/zz138/tnj0426/ |

They would care because its basic marketing. Get off on the right track and put your best foot forward so people are excited and wanting to buy, just because Chrome is sold out online doesn't mean everyone is sold out everywhere and that it won't show back up somewhere later.

I do believe, and have seen evidence, that most products are front-loaded. If shops get their's first then I would think they have a better chance at better hits. NT and 5* seem to be less so, maybe because there is a smaller print run. I also noticed Black Box Basketball was consistent throughout the breaks I saw. I have seen quit a few older product breaks and they are usually brutal.

just doesn't seem to make sense considering, as ML said, they sell out at the factory before anythings even shipping.
sure, drive up excitement at first, but if things are sold out, it's not like the consumer is going to be able to run to the factory or Topps and buy more... They have seemingly little to gain from doing this, as when things cool off at the end of the run, might leave a sour taste in people's mouths for next year. or, they just overproduce the products that rocked the year before and screw it up anyway.
Luke Kuechly Collector pending: w8lifter28 (custom), Don't ask me how much I want to offer. Come with a price in mind. If I don't want it or think it's worth that, I will let you know. |

This thread, however, is full of speculation though with no factual information to back up any theories.

I tend to agree with this^^^^^^^ topps has already made their money on hobby cases by the time the product hits the market. Where is the true incentive? The product has already been purchased. To me, retail is a totally different animal. I could definately see topps "frontloading" retail boxes when a product is first released to build hype/excitement, because they could always print more depending on how well the product is selling, hits left, etc...... |

125 The Hopeful Donkey
Title: The Hopeful Donkey
Studio: Terry
Date: 12/17/43
Running time (of viewed version): 6:14
Commercial DVD Availability: -
Synopsis: A retelling of the Brementown musicians folk tale.
Comments: Same narrator as Chicken Little? Establishing shot of a character eating oats. Throwback design on the farmer. Cartoony tho. They bothered to have the farmer walk closer to the camera and become larger while they controlled his perspective so he would avoid the fence, so don't tell me Terry (the studio) didn't give a crap. The farmer is on his way to dig a grave for the donkey. Which would be grim except that it means he's not going to use every part of the animal, so it's more of a tribute. It's a wonderful donkey shaped grave. Dog and donkey both seem very simple in design. Fairly high falutin' dialogue for the animals. The chicken seems to just be shirking its duty by refusing to be eaten, while the others were simply going to be executed/left to die. Robbers with sneak walk. Point a gun at a goose and say "lay". Then it goes all "Clue" the movie and has an alternate ending. In the alternate ending, the robbers are apparently not scared and are left to their booty. Probably some of the worst looking characters for the year.
Last Terry cartoon for the year.
6 comments:
Yes, it's the wrong place to write about it, but don't you want to start blog about cartoons of 1944 or 1945 next year? I already have the chronological list of releases...
ReplyDeleteThe internet says a cartoon called Hopeful Donkey is on "Storytime Classics - The Golden Egg Goose and Other Tales" on VHS ( http://www.ebay.com/ctg/Storytime-Classics-Golden-Egg-Goose-and-Other-Tales-VHS-/3251183 ) , also "Fairy Tale CLassics vol 3 ( http://www.worldcat.org/title/fairy-tale-classics-volume-iii/oclc/013896214 ). Googleing "Hopeful Donkey" and VHS will bring up some hits of people selling DVD copies of thier VHS collections as well.

Don't miss Mindi Abair live, tonight, April 29th, at Jazziz Nightlife (201 Plaza Real in Mizner Park) in Boca Raton, Florida.
Go to http://www.jazziz.com/event/mindi-abair/ for tickets!
Mindi Abair was playing in the band on American Idol when Steven Tyler stopped the show to ask the contestant "Who is your sax player?" But that's not entirely surprising: Abair is the kind of artist who commands instant attention. A triple-threat singer, saxophonist and songwriter, she's recorded no less than 10 No. 1 singles, sold a half million records and repeatedly topped the Billboard Contemporary Jazz Charts. After catching Tyler's attention, she wound up touring with Aerosmith for two years, while also making time to play with Bruce Springsteen and jam with Paul Shaffer and the Late Show with David Letterman band. Now she comes to JAZZIZ Nightlife for a memorable and intimate concert.
She will be performing songs from her upcoming CD release, "Wild Heart," as well as tunes from her previous albums.

To gain in-depth understanding of farm mechanisation, a 16-member delegation from African countries including Ethiopia, Tanzania, Kenya, and Zimbabwe, visited the College of Agricultural Engineering and Technology (COAE&T) of the Punjab Agricultural University (PAU) on Monday.
The delegation led by engineer Saidi Mkomwa, executive secretary, and African Conservation Tillage Network; comprises farm manufacturers and scientists from national systems and farm universities.
The visit is a part of two-week training-cum-study tour on, 'Farm Mechanisation for African Stakeholders,' led by Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) under a tripartite collaboration amongst ICAR, International Maize and Wheat Improvement Centre (CIMMYT) and Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR).
In his welcome address, Dr PPS Lubana, dean, COAE&T, said that farm mechanisation plays a key role in agriculture.
Highlighting the success story of laser land lever technology in the Punjab state, he told that this technique helps in the uniform application of water, levels fields precisely, and saves irrigation water up to 30%.
Presenting an overview of organisational set-up of the college and highlighting key accomplishments, Dr Lubana said that PAU conducts training, on different aspects of agri-engineering, at state as well as at the national level.
Dr JS Mahal, additional director of research (farm mechanisation and bio-energy), said, "The scientific interaction amongst the experts and delegation members should result into fruitful outcome so that mechanisation skills, applied in Punjab, can be effectively used in African countries as well."
Dr HS Sidhu, senior research engineer, CIMMYT, Borlaug Institute for South Asia (BISA), stated, "The involvement of the scientists, manufacturers, and farmers is vital for success and development of farm machinery."
He informed that delegation visited BISA, Ladhowal, wherein the experts demonstrated conservation agricultural practices and related machinery, in addition to water management trial on spring maize, direct seeding of summer moong into wheat residue using happy seeder, and various other research trials.

From Senior Bush's Second Year in Office comes this thoroughly traditional .38 Military and Police Stainless, the Model 64, fifth engineering change. Serial number prefix is BFT, late 1990 production. Metal surfaces exhibit holster buffing, contact scouring, and some polishing. Matte finish atop frame and barrel has been buffed but is still strong. There are perhaps two dozen tiny pecks here and there along the sides of the barrel, left side of frame, and mostly on the side plate. Yoke screw shows minimal stress from annual armorer servicing. Finishwise, we rate this 64 as Very Good, 75 to 80 percent of its original finish intact. Photos, however, should suffice for interested parties to judge finish grade for themselves. Note the classic, highly desirable satin stainless hammer and trigger, and their excellent condition. Grips are new replacement Hogue K-Square Combat Conversion grips, but Hogues are period appropriate for the decade of production. This 64-5 is Excellent mechanically. Double action trigger pull is smooth and consistent, and the hammer travels a full, exceptional 15 degrees after the cylinder times on all six positions in double action. On single action, the hammer travels an additional 30 to 35 degrees on all six after the cylinder times into place. Single action trigger pull is a crisp 3 7/8 pounds. Lateral play to the cylinder is minimal, less than 1/2 mm total movement by our estimate, both with the trigger relaxed and with the trigger pulled all the way. Blast effect to the under side of the frame top strap directly above the barrel's forcing cone is negligible, a faint impress only with no depth that is not distinguishable from a mill mark. This revolver has had very few if any +P rounds fired in it. Cylinder face to forcing cone gap is a very tight .005, and this helps explain the absence of blast impress to the topstrap. This 19 year old service revolver has been well maintained and sparingly used during its career, and it is eminently serviceable for civilian or security use. We are even including a period correct left hand holster from the North Carolina Department of Corrections.

Mum has the day off today, as she worked the weekend. She was up early (for her), and is getting some jobs done. We are donating our old couch, chair and some other things to the Salvation Army shop to make room for our new things. So there is a bit of shifting things around today and tidying up. Yippee!!!
Have a good week everybuddy!!

Mum at home with her darling girl!
What a treat for both of you! It's good that you found a soft, cozy place on a piece of furniture that's staying. We wouldn't want our dear Poppy to be carted off to the Salvation Army by mistake!
(Even though they are a very well respected charitable organization.) Have a wonderful day,dear.

Mr Taylor's comments came as Wardle published reduced pre-tax profits of pounds 8m compared with pounds 9.2m for the year to 31 August. 'Things in Britain did not get any better nor any worse,' he said. 'In Europe, however, things look very sick.'
Wardle moulds plastic for products such as baths, the interior trim of cars, and parts for prams. It also makes life-rafts, life-jackets and parachutes.
This year operating profits were flat despite successful efforts to reduce costs and stimulate sales by introducing products. But a drop in the amount of interest received meant taxable profits fell.
Wardle has cash balances of pounds 32m, generated out of profitability. As a result of falling interest rates, interest earned fell to pounds 2.2m against pounds 3.3m.
The company has been actively looking to spend its cash by making acquisitions. It has been put off purchases, however, because due diligence programmes have highlighted problems within targets.
Earnings per share fell to 21.7p from 27.3p. The total dividend for the year rose 8 per cent to 17.25p from 16p. The shares fell 17p to close at 431p.

From the architect. The construction area, occupied before with a house, several support structures, a porch and a upland, keeps an old wall, made of stone, that subdivides it in two platforms, being one of them perfectly on level, in the interior of the field, and being the other one ramped into the street.
This two platforms insinuate also the existence of a withdrawn area from the surroundings and the street, and a nearest area which maintains a highest proximity with the street. The proposal is the result of the maintenance of the referred wall in stone as a regulator element of two distinct realities, proposing also an object that revalues this dichotomy and defends it.
The house is located somewhere upside the wall, allowing a semi-suspension relationship that values a certain duality between the creation of a very regular/rational image into the street and simultaneously a very arbitrary image into the other side of the field.
It allows also a kind of linear functional distribution, solving functional spaces into the backyard, in East side and bringing the main permanence spaces into the street, in Oest. It expands the visual connection between the rooms and living or dinner rooms with the landscape and controls the physical and visual connection of the rest of the spaces with the private exterior areas, in East.
It solves the parking areas under the suspended constructed volume at the same time that offers a more privacy connection between the different interior areas with the balcony and mainly with the surroundings. It looks to achieve, mainly, a correct location that simplifies and offers a better distributive connection with the physical particularities of the intervention site plan.

The DPW's Flaming Trebuchet at Burning Man 2015 was a Resto art piece which showed off our cleanup abilities. 6:37 was the time — that's six minutes and thirty-seven seconds to clean up a flaming piano that's been launched from a two-story slingshot and tossed splashing onto the ground like a fiery dirt clod.

Well, this is exhilarating: D.A. said Day Four was one of the more inspiring days Playa Restoration has ever had out here. Maybe it just felt nice to go full speed for a full day, after all those weather-filled half days.
The choreography of Line Sweeps, Special Forces, and infrastructure crews swirling towards the goal, the dirty ballet in work boots … it's a logistical symphony to behold. We've had some practice this weathery week with evacuations. Now we can't help but muster forces and move out and load up with ever more economy and efficiency.

Hello from Playa Restoration, where the dust has subsided and we can finally see. As of day three, we still haven't had a full day's work due to a little rain, but we're churning along quickly anyways.
To review, Day One of Resto was a three-quarters day. Day Two was a half day. Day Three was a day off due to weather, so it doesn't count, so Day Four Is Day Three — which also ended up being a half day due to weather. Still, look what Resto got done:

MOOP Map 2016: Day Two – Weather and Machines
The wind in Gerlach howls. Howling wind is a literary cliche but what's another term for the 'awooo' sound that moving air makes when it whistles around buildings and through the few trees in the streets in this town. Desert nomads in other places probably have a word for the howl wind does after a long flight across a huge expanse of flat land the size of Delaware, unencumbered by high-rises or people or even scrub brush.

MOOP Map 2016: Day One – The Bodies and The Gears
"Killin' time 'til Resto."
It's a phrase often used in the DPW, or the Department of Public Works, Black Rock City's builders and tearer-downers and cleaner-uppers. City superintendent Coyote likes to say we in the DPW build the first piece of art out here at Burning Man — the town grid and all the infrastructure upon it.
We build a boundary (the trash fence) and stretch a 9.5-square-mile city canvas for Burners to paint on.
As you know, all this has to disappear after Burning Man is over. Welcome to the realm of the Playa Restoration crew.
Burning Man didn't get to be the world's largest Leave No Trace event for nothing — the Bureau of Land Management, or BLM, decides every year if we did a good enough job on the restoration to be permitted to do Burning Man again the following year. So we make sure we do.
Black Rock City's 2016 BLM Site Inspection is slated for October 3. Since the Burning Man event ended and up until this past weekend, the DPW has struck the city and put everything back where it goes for the winter.
Now, as of yesterday, Playa Restoration has started. Cue cheering and applause! This is the event some of us in the DPW have been waiting for all year. And you, Burners and MOOP enthusiasts at home, you're eager to see how your neighborhood did on the MOOP map, aren'tcha? Hang on a sec. Let's huddle for a recap of what Resto is.
We used to call it "cleanup" but that's not specific enough. What the Resto team tries to do is to pick up every wayward wood chip, cigarette butt, and fleck of glitter on this otherwise immaculately clean-for-an-event-site piece of public land — and then to fluff, buff, and level out dunes so the playa itself can heal for the winter.
We do this gargantuan task in about two weeks, with Line Sweeps, with Special Forces, and with dunebusting — assisted by the auto shop, commissary, ranch, shoreline crew, office, housing, saloon, fluffers, and several other crews which keep the DPW cogs moving in the Playa Restoration machine.
Playa Restoration Manager D.A. says that Black Rock City 'is lookin' pretty good' this year. He says he saw more line sweeps, landscape rakes, shovels, and MOOP buckets in theme camps and camps in general at Burning Man than ever before. He's not the only one. We see you, and we're winking at you.
Because what we gather from that is: Leaving no trace is up to all of us. You all worked to make an effort to help Burning Man 2017 happen, and this is how you did it — by knowing the drill, packing it in, packing it out, and leaving no trace.
Burning Man's reputation and practices have changed the way people use the Black Rock Desert in the off-Burning Man months, too: Now, when they come out and light things on fire and shoot at them, or shoot at their bottles, they might be laying down protection for the playa (and easier cleanup) first, because we don't find a lot of trash on the desert any more. See? What we do affects what other people do.
Burners, give yourselves a preliminary round of applause. We're looking good out there in 2016, knock on wood, and it's all because YOU know how to spread the word.
Now, if it's your first time following along on the MOOP Map, green means good clean playa, yellow means some uh-ohs, and red means something went sort of badly as far as cleanup goes. Judge not on burniness, lest ye be judged on thy burniness, and all that. Stay positive; we'll handle what you missed.
The important thing is to look at all that green, and realize it's already as good or better than we've ever done. The Resto crew itself is moving at a speedy clip — although the crew got blown out by a masssive whiteout by 3pm yesterday, they covered almost as much ground as they expected to by 5. Today, if the dust would stop blowing, we could move even faster … but the wind's picking up again.
And now, the moment you've been waiting for: Here are Day One's MOOP Map results.

William Binzen & John Law talk Desert Siteworks
Ever wondered why, if Burning Man was invented by punk rockers and industrial artists, the event doesn't just look like a straight Mad Max and Tank Girl desert cosplay arena? Where did all the splashes of color on shabby-sophisticated tableaus come from?
Answer: William Binzen, Burning Man's original visual thought leader. In the early '90s when the Cacophony Society had their "Zone Trip" to the desert, Binzen was holed up in some nearby hot springs and expansive views, doing his own thing as well as collaborating over here on the Black Rock.

Someone had used my details and hacked into Nationwide's systems and tried to borrow £10,000 in my name.
A woman who said she was from the head office of my local bank told me to go to my bank and withdraw £8,000 and hand it to a courier for safe keeping.
I didn't want to pay him £1,000 – he hadn't done any work but I felt bullied and intimidated and that I didn't have any other choice.
The phone rang again and he said there was a virus on my computer and that hackers could gain access to it, but he could repair it for me.

Apps: Success, Sustainability
Microsoft is buying the company that makes the smart keyboard app SwiftKey.
I've grown very fond of SwiftKey and use it on the iPhone, iPad and the Xiaomi. Over time it's gotten better at prediction even on iOS (with the limited flexibility available to it there). It now autocompletes common email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses, common search phrases and even entire sentences.
Longevity is a risk with any independent service, and SwiftKey wasn't any different (even though they have a revenue stream via paid themes). Some of the best independent apps in recent times have sold themselves to larger firms – Tweetie to Twitter (became the official Twitter app), Beluga to Facebook (which became FB Messenger), WhatsApp, Instagram to Facebook again, Flickr to Yahoo, Accompli to Microsoft (became Outlook for iOS & Mac); WunderList and Sunrise to Microsoft again; Mailbox to Dropbox, and on.
Microsoft has a good buyer's eye for quality independent apps with a loyal user base. I use all of their acquisitions – Outlook for iOS/Android, WunderList, Sunrise and SwiftKey (though I gave up Sunrise for the excellent – and independent – Fantastical). The question is how long, if at all, these apps will live on independently, in the form and with the, well, independence that attracted their fans in the first place. Sunrise has already been discontinued and folded into the calendar within Outlook. If Microsoft's bought SwiftKey less for the keyboard itself and more for the AI smarts behind it (and they've worked on and trialled some impressive stuff), then the app as we know it is not long for the world.
Some of this churn is a mere inconvenience for the app's 'early adopters'; some of it could be more serious (for those who've 'put their life into', say, Evernote. In any case, it's a sign of the incredible ferment in the app space (one that is barely 7 years old), with incredible advances in mobile hardware and software platform capabilities; of how easy it is now to make an app and get it in the hands of people who like, no, love it; of how many ways there are to scratch an itch digitally. What is less clear is how to build a sustainable business around this. The dilemma between giving your app away for free to make it as easy to get started with as possible, and charging enough to cover the costs of making and running it. The dilemma between focusing on a single software platform (iOS or Android) to make the best of what it offers, and building for both (with its attendant compromises and overheads) so everyone who wants to can try it out (and pay!).
We haven't had an app-first, mobile-era business that's sustainable at scale. All of the biggies – Apple, Google, Facebook, Amazon and (doggedly) Microsoft – are all of web vintage, or earlier. Uber likely has the best shot among the mobile-era upstarts.
It's clear though that as apps are built, sold and abandoned, it's going to be increasingly important that you be able to move all the information you put into them. It's simple to experiment with email apps because email a well known standard, and moving from Sparrow to Mailbox to Airmail still means using your same Gmail (or other) email mailbox. Ditto with photo apps because your photo album is right on your phone. Calendar app? The same. But todo apps? Keyboard apps? Messaging apps? Read Later apps? Your Airbnb reputation? Foursquare checking history? Spotify playlists? Uber ride history? All locked in. It goes away with the app.
Idea, Product, Business
Your division starts off on a new project with a bang. And months later ends with a whimper. You shut the thing down, your folks are terribly frustrated but you don't really know what went wrong. From my experience, here's probably what happened:
First, there's the idea.
Then, there's the productization of that idea.
Finally, there's the business built around that product.
But you cannot make money off an idea. You can only make money from a business. And you cannot take an idea to market. You can only take a product to market.
Too often, Management doesn't see the difference between the three and misses asking the right questions at the stage those questions need to be asked. The result is usually a shoddy product, reactive execution, management by crisis, a demoralized team and money down the drain.
Been there before?
If you rush to build a business around nothing more than an idea, you'll probably find that
Your audience doesn't understand your product because you don't understand the audience. Or you spent so much time early on thinking about monetization you didn't think enough about adoption. Or by the time you launched, your product was a year behind its competition. Or you built your mobile app for a platform your early adopters don't use. Or you launched without customer support or the ability to collect feedback. Or you give up on the product too quickly because it didn't really really excite you to begin with.
Seem familiar?
Here's what I think might help avoid these holes:
When evaluating an idea you'd ask
- Has this problem already been solved?
- Does our organization – firm, company, startup – understand this space?
- Is this way of doing business in our DNA?
- Does it personally excite you, o ringmaster?
- When the product will be ready, will it still be relevant?
And then, once the idea's passed evaluation and you've begun to build,
- Who are your early adopters?
- How do we put together the talent needed to get this out the door?
- What platform do we develop for? (mobile platform, web platform)
- What features do we bake in/leave out?
- What is our go-to-market plan?
- What kind of customer support should we have (phone/email/in-app form)
- How will we collect feedback?
- What parameters will we monitor?
Once you've launched, gotten traction, feedback and momentum,
- How do we make money?
- What does our product roadmap look like? How often do we release?
You're likely better off asking these questions when they really matter. Not too early, not too late. #Ilearntthehardway.
Among the most challenging advice I've received
… is this (at the very start of building a new product):
Assume your product's already been built. Now think about how you're going to get adoption and usage among your audience.
Too often you get so caught up in the excitement of building something cool, you don't tackle the hard problem of seeding it and getting usage among early adopters until you're very close to – or at – launch. Then you've got a product that's ready and no one but yourselves using it. Your go-to-market guy's under tremendous pressure and your developer's twiddling his/her thumbs. Your team can run out of momentum and enthusiasm really quickly and it's very hard to get your mojo back.
This has happened to us before. And I'm still working on that advice.
The MV Wisdom
While the monstrosity is gone, we had a chance to take a gander last week:
Well one had to see it. Because it's there. And the reports of how it didn't miss the Bandra Worli Sea Link by much, relatively speaking. From the spot on Juhu beach where the damn thing is, you can easily see the taller pair of towers of the Sea Link.
But it's big. Driving down Juhu Tara from Santacruz, near the Ramada curve, I told myself to Keep a Watch out; you don't want to Miss It. I thought it'd be a hundred feet off the beach or suchlike. Watch out my ass. It's like the Worli TV tower while coming off the BWSL – in your damn face. It's on the sand. For something this massive to come this close to the shore it'd have to be not just crazy, but Charlie-Sheen-stark-raving-nuts-berserk-crazy. This helicopter shot is straight out of a disaster movie – the damn vessel-from-hell is headed straight for the Juhu Centaur:
So I pay-and-parked in front of the Ramada and walked towards it. Few analogies, really. Dinosaur? Gulliver? Space ship? None come close. It's ancient. Filthy. Tired. Rusting. The last vestiges of dignity seeping out of it. And yet disinterested in its fate, just as long as there's one in store. So there's a massive loneliness, sadness around it:
And yet it utterly dominates the horizon around it. Standing close to it gives you a sense of creeping agoraphobia, until you just have to look away. It's arguably smaller than the Centaur and the Ramada in front of it but unmatched in sheer presence. No shacks, palm groves, seafront bungalows, miscellaneous other construction and crumbling walls around it. It stands alone. Off to its left there's nothing until Madh, far into the distance. On its right, the Sea-link,the only comparable superstructure, is obscured by the hump of land at Juhu Koliwada.
So it stands, despicable, unwelcome, but unchallenged as emperor of its stretch of sea-land.
So there.
Doing life in software is hard
Google+ is like a VCR. I know exactly what I can do with it. But I cannot figure out how. Maybe I'm slower in the head now, but I remember within minutes I was using Orkut in the same way that I would always use it. Ditto Facebook. Then again, it was probably because they're such simple, single-textured attempts at replicating real connections. + is more ambitious.
+ is supposed to be the notFacebook network. The gentleman hero that gives back to the meanings of 'social' and 'share' the nuance they had lost for the last five years. To create social circles of people that really matter to you. To share with them pictures, plans, numbers, confessions that couldn't make it to Facebook. To boldly go…, so to speak.
But now I find myself being 'added' by the same people I'd spent time weeding out of my Facebook friends in an attempt to create those private spaces that + was supposed to let me create in the first place. I herded the party out the back only to have them stagger in the front door.
And what does 'added' by someone mean? Would I begin seeing things they shared? Would they see what I shared? Was I part of circles I didn't know about? Frustratingly, for a network that was supposed to let you create social connections on your terms, I couldn't even refuse to be 'added'. Logging in to +, for now at least, seems like walking into a party blindfolded.
But you can retreat into your own circles, can't you? Yes and No. Maybe I'm the social weirdo here, but I can't tell just what my today-in-real-life-circles are. I mean I can group/circle the guys from school, the folks from IBM, my first roommates, my then-close friends at IIMK. Each group corresponds to people in distinct phases of my life, people that have remained prominent as the others have faded.
The group reveals itself only after the phase has passed.
And then it also strikes me. That I can only recollect a single group for each phase should tell me something – I really _belonged_ to only one group at a time. It tells me that groups like 'work' and 'family' and 'cousins' and daily commute gang' and such are really just only contexts for interactions. You can force-create + circles for them, but they're really freeform amoeba-like shapes, and will change. Not even snap, just thin out at points and separate into other blobs without much emotional ado. Attempts to share 'stuff' with them on services like + will peter out in weeks. Or days. I mean what would you share with your 'work' circle that you wouldn't share publicly on Facekut? And how long would you keep sharing with 'cousins'? Google weakly suggesting 'Acquaintances' as a possible option demonstrates just how hard it is to find more than one meaningful, binding circle in your life.
Maybe I don't get it. It meaning having real-life connections. Maybe + is really a move-to-the-next-curve improvement in social networks, and I'm a bottom-of-the-curve hermit.
Or maybe doing life in software really is hard.
Always tinker
I learnt recently that even when all indications are that your business (or life. or city. or whatever) is running fine, something could be wrong – in plain view – that those indicators can't tell you.
The only way to discover these problems is to tinker around with data. Ask questions of it.
Here's what happened.
Ours is a prepaid subscriptions business. You sign up, put money into your account and pick your subscriptions.
Our signups, payments and new subscriptions – the three primary indicators of our health [1] – were growing at expected rates relative to each other. Nothing seemed to be wrong.
Until one day, I discovered that many new signups didn't have any subscriptions. That was unexpected. It meant that most of our new subscriptions were via older subscribers.
That meant – and this was quickly confirmed – that most of our payments were also made by older subscribers. This is a problem, and we commissioned a quick survey to find out what was wrong with our new signups.
But then we tinkered further. We plotted a histogram of (normalized) new subscriptions started (all of this is excluding renewals) versus how long ago the subscribers had signed up, and we found this:
Astonishing. The older the subscriber, the more the number of new subscriptions they started recently [2]. We had a larger problem than we expected; our older subscribers were so active, they'd hidden how un-engaged our newer subscribers were for several months.
While we took immediate steps to fix this, we also realized that it's hard to build a dashboard for stuff like this. You can – and should – track primary measures of success, results of specific campaigns, and suchlike. But under-the-surface stuff like this – we'd never have figured it out if we hadn't tinkered with data.
[1] There's also ARPU and churn, but they aren't material to this discussion.
[2] The data for months 8 and 9 is skewed by a small set of people with a lot of subscriptions each, but they're still much higher than any other month, and the trend is the same
Cost of acquisition versus lifetime value
A post on Fred Wilson's excellent blog about cost of acquiring each customer versus the lifetime value of that customer. And it's pretty simple: "LTV has to be greater than CPA or you won't be able to scale – or, for that matter, survive."
This seems obvious. But when you're preparing a revenues-versus-costs estimate for a business plan, you often overlook how much you earn versus spend per customer over time. Here's a slight variation of that from a few weeks ago:
The CEO of our firm shot down a recent plan I presented, one that involved both the mobile web and SMS working in tandem. The product was different, compelling, and the estimates said we'd be profitable in a year on the gross. But our SMS costs were 80% of the revenue we would have earned from advertising.
"Keep SMS out; figure out the mobile web part. If you're spending 80% of your revenue on acquisition and retention, you won't have enough to spend on content and infra and operations and product innovation – and that's not even counting people."
And this was true not just in the month we acquired the customer. Month on month, the SMS costs kept pace with the ad revenue per customer [1], so we'd never have enough money to spare. In other words, the CPA was lower than the LTV. But not nearly low enough [2].
[1] It was also likely, I realised later, that over time the customer would yield less ad revenue as he/she tired of the service, but the SMS costs would be the same. So we would have to evaluate the customer's worth and adjust SMS quality of service constantly, making things rather complicated.
[2] As an aside, these costs also grew linearly not just over the lifetime of each customer, but also with the addition of every new customer – there were no economies of scale to be had. If there were, the total lifetime value of all customers would have grown faster than the total (SMS) cost of acquisition and retention, and it would've been viable after a point of time.
The unbearable burden of Facebook
From TIME magazine's Person of the Year profile of Mark Zuckerberg:
"We're trying to map out what exists in the world," he says. "In the world, there's trust. I think as humans we fundamentally parse the world through the people and relationships we have around us.
And you begin to understand why Facebook remains controversial in spite of its everywhereness. Mark Zuckerberg views Facebook as a digital analogue of our real-world relationships, and a way to make the Internet a better place because of those relationships.
But that is a huge responsibility to place on people. Your friend list on Facebook is likely nothing like 'what exists in the world' for you. Very few among you have enough self-awareness to know who you really have a relationship with. Fewer still have the strength of character to decline friend requests from your extended family, current and former colleagues, former batchmates, acquaintances from the city you used to live in, your old boyfriend or girlfriend – all people who you had some relationship with, perhaps a very close one, but no longer. And even fewer will un-friend people in your list who no longer matter (with equanimity, I mean. youdumpedmeyoupigunfriendthere doesn't count).
Hence the different ways people use Facebook: a professional marketing tool for yourself or your company, or a way to peek into the life of your former crush, or while away boredom at work through gameaftergameaftergame, or to share random blurry photos from your phone camera, or channel every semi-conscious thought into a status update directed to no one in particular but one you always expect comments on. Ways of using Facebook which betray everything about you – desires, insecurities, biases, sparks of geniuses, likes – but rarely reflect your your real-world relationships.
It emerges in the article that Zuckerberg does possess such confidence, such self-awareness, such integrity. This is rare, and it is probably only such who can use Facebook as Zuckerberg intended it, with no conflicts – of privacy, time, expectation or obligation.
As the writer of the TIME profile points out, "Facebook is still a painfully blunt instrument for doing the delicate work of transmitting human relationships". Indeed, we inhabit so many imperfectly formed, constantly changing personas (some of them semi-conscious) that any such Facebook alternative would have to be so complex as to be completely unusable. So like any sufficiently complex issue, we make Facebook a binary decision – log in or not.
Oh, how much is that second-hand app on the home screen?
Frédéric Filloux in his Monday Note column describes a rights-based (as opposed to files-based) future for managing digital content (whether magazines or books):
A first phase is likely to consist of an extension of what we have today, i.e. a transaction system based of book files: text-based books or richer media products. The main players will remain Amazon, or the Apple iBooks store. But, in five to ten years, this way of dealing with intellectual content will be seen as primitive.
The true revolution will be a shift from a files transaction system to a rights transaction system. This transformation involves radical changes in the way we think of digital content, books, videos or even games.
Today, Joe can't share a book that he bought (rented?) from an e-book-store, can't give it back, can't pass it on, can't re-sell it – nothing. He can either keep it or delete it. – what a waste! The publisher and technology industries, for all their talent, have created a form that, in important ways, is less convenient than even the original physical book form that it is based on .[1]
They will be forced to fix this state of affairs as more people read their books, magazines and more online, and competitors with saner policies enter the market.
But even in a digital rights-based world, what about a second-hand market for digital books – and apps? If Joe purchased an email program for his Nokia smartphone, and a year later bought an iPhone, he could
1. return his app (the rights to the app) to the store he bought it from. In this case, does Joe get a full or partial refund? Unlike a physical good, there has been no wear. And it's fair to say he'd be refunded whatever the current price is (or maybe the price he bought it for, whichever is less). But this is flawed – since the number of rights are infinite, they are worth nothing themselves. The store gains nothing by refunding Joe his money, so there's no incentive in a return-refund.
2. transfer his app (the rights) to Jane's Nokia. Unless Joe's gifting the app away, a transfer means Jane will need to pay Joe for those rights. How much are those rights worth to Joe?
This is the second-hand market for digital goods.
An eBay for digital goods sounds about right, and about time [2].
[1] And when we attempt to set the digital book/magazine free, the limited corral of policies we build around it is maddening in its clumsiness: you-can-only-share-with-so-many-people, you-can-only-share-so-many-times, you-can-only-share-with-an-identical-device, you-have-to-pay-extra-to-share. This is when you know that from among the inventors, engineers, marketers, lawyers and accountants, the first two have left the room.
[2] This market will need support from app stores and developers, of course. There's no way – over-the-counter or otherwise – for Joe to transfer his app to Jane (or any other bidder). This is regardless of whether it's bought from an app store (Apple/Android/RIM/(ugh)Nokia) or from the app developer itself.

In today's world we see the complexity as well as the appearance of websites that have been gaining importance day by day and to develop these types of complex websites a team of professional coders, designers and managers are required. This takes a lot of time and costs even more. They develop this by means of numerous coding techniques. These coding techniques are not common for all people who do not know the depth of programming. Webydo is helping to lead the design revolution for creative professionals by providing them with a code-free solution to handle all of their projects and client assignments.
Freelancing is a fast growing career path for most designers. Webydo has become very popular as it provides a platform to all for gaining knowledge as well as expresses their potential. Designers especially are showing a lot of interest in growing their business with this revolutionary design studio. Below are some of the details about Webydo which highlight how it helps in growing the freelance design businesses and agencies:
The online website design software focus is to boost the designers focus more on design of the website rather than coding. This allows making use of the already available ready-made designs, starting from a basic layout or letting your creations take over from a blank canvas is if you were in Photoshop. This helps achieve more efficient work flow as well.
Maximum efficiency To design a website the conventional designers have to focus more on coding and technical part but Webydo users skip this technical part and focus more on beauty and creative aspect of the website design. It provides a large number of open source fonts designs, etc. through which we can directly publish and update our websites just by a click. So maximum efficiency of the freelancing designers comes out as creativity in website design Community A very interesting part to Webydo is their community of over 61K professional web designers who are regularly voting and submitting new feature suggestions on the Participate page. Note; suggestions and commenting are some interactive methods to share through this forum platform. Positive and negative feedback is given to improve the designs. The major benefit after the joining a community is that the users become aware and up to date of all the designs. Advanced design features, new updates and helping shape their work space.
There is an abundance of advanced features available to work with and help achieve pixel perfect website design. Some of the features are listed below :
Server and Security It has a great advantage of having its own cloud hosting server. This helps the designers to avoid from getting into the details of settings of web hosting and DNS. We do not have to worry about the domain names and security. The security here is the cloud hosted and is monitored now and then. Cross platform code It provides such a platform in which the HTML code for the website design is automatically generated according to the latest industry trends. It ensures that the built website is displayed well on all the browsers like Google chrome, Mozilla and internet explorer and is adaptable to all devices also, for instance I phones, laptops, android and i-pad. Being compatible to all browsers and devices, it attracts thousands of visitors online.
Rebranding Designers have a great opportunity here to display the name of their company and logo in an innovative way. It lets us achieve the rebranding of our company so that we can create awareness of our company among people through our website. We can add the logo of the company to the clients' login screen and dashboard. So when the clients or website visitors' login they come to see the logo which further, helps in branding and gaining popularity. Looking forward to all the above mentioned points, we can surely feel that Webydo is the potential software for website design. It has all the professional designing features embedded into it that are needed by a designer for website design to start from the beginning and so nowadays it has become a very popular software.

Plays a role in autophagy. Additionally we are shipping ATG9A Antibodies (123) and ATG9A Proteins (5) and many more products for this protein.
Results suggest that quinocetone stimulates the MRLC-mediated mAtg9 trafficking, which is critical for autophagosome formation, via the ATF6 (show ATF6 ELISA Kits) upregulated expression of DAPK1 (show DAPK1 ELISA Kits).
This study highlights the transcriptional inactivation mechanisms of ATG2B, ATG4D (show ATG4D ELISA Kits), ATG9A and ATG9B (show ATG9B ELISA Kits) promoter methylation status and the possible origin of autophagy signal pathway repression in invasive ductal carcinomas.
Importantly, TBC1D14 (show TBC1D14 ELISA Kits) and TRAPPIII regulate ATG9 trafficking independently of ULK1 (show ULK1 ELISA Kits).
These two steps are essential for the maturation of small single-membrane autophagic precursors containing ATG16L1 (show ATG16L1 ELISA Kits) and mATG9 proteins into double-membrane autophagosomes
D620N mutation in VPS35 (show vps35 ELISA Kits) restricts WASH complex recruitment to endosomes, inhibiting autophagy. The autophagy defects can be explained, at least in part, by abnormal trafficking of the autophagy protein ATG9A.
Data found that the interaction between 14-3-3 zeta (show YWHAZ ELISA Kits) and Atg9A is mediated by phosphorylation at Ser761.
TBC1D5 and the AP2 complex (show AP2B1 ELISA Kits) are important novel regulators of the rerouting of ATG9-containing vesicular carriers toward sites of autophagosome formation.
miR (show MLXIP ELISA Kits)-29b mRNA, MAPK10 (show MAPK10 ELISA Kits) protein expression, and ATG9A protein expression are closely related to chemosensitivity of ovarian carcinoma.
the presence of ATG9A in the cytoplasm of tumor cells may be an independent biomarker for disease recurrence and survival in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma
ATG9A was found by co-immunoprecipitation to interact with FAM48A/p38IP (show SUPT20H ELISA Kits)/q8NEM7.2.
Atg9a(-/-) fetal mice from pregnant dams heterozygous for both knockout alleles of Atg9a and p57(Kip2 (show CDKN1C ELISA Kits)) are more susceptible to hypertensive stress than fetuses with intact autophagic machinery.
Atg9a expression is required for neural stem cell differentiation.
Knockdown of Atg9a resulted in enhanced stimulator of IFN genes-mediated production of IFN-beta (show IFNB1 ELISA Kits) by aged macrophages
Both AMPK (show PRKAA1 ELISA Kits) and ULK1 (show ULK1 ELISA Kits) regulate localization of a critical component of the phagophore, ATG9.
In the initial steps of Parkin (show PARK2 ELISA Kits)-mediated mitophagy, the structures containing the ULK1 (show ULK1 ELISA Kits) complex and Atg9A are independently recruited to depolarized mitochondria.
STING co-localizes with the autophagy proteins, microtubule-associated protein (show SPAG5 ELISA Kits) 1 light chain 3 (LC3 (show MAP1LC3A ELISA Kits)) and autophagy-related gene 9a (Atg9a), after dsDNA stimulation.
Atg9Ap may be involved in autophagosome formation in the ER and axon terminals of neurons, the TGN (show TG ELISA Kits), and lysosomes/late endosomes.
Plays a role in autophagy. Cycles between a juxta- nuclear trans-Golgi network compartment and late endosomes. Nutrient starvation induces accumulation on autophagosomes. Starvation-dependent trafficking requires ULK1, ATG13 and FAM48A (By similarity).
ATG9 autophagy related 9 homolog A , autophagy protein 9 , ATG9 autophagy related 9 homolog A (S. cerevisiae) , autophagy-related protein 9A , Autophagy-related protein 9A , APG9-like 1 , APG9 autophagy 9-like 1 , autophagy 9-like 1 protein , autophagy-related 9-like 1 , autophagy-related 9A
