pud is a very smart guy, and I actually think the blippy
concept could be successful; I just don't like the implementation.
I was thinking of doing a "sharing your amazon purchases" startup (as a way to give people advice about their own purchases; e.g. if you buy a printer, a laptop, etc., have a single place you can go to with info on your purchases -- stuff like where to get toner, owners manuals, repair services, etc.). Someone mentioned blippy, and I met him in person a few times at Founder Institute.
