The first thing I was asked by a non-YC incubator.

"How do you plan to acquire users?" "I dunno, spamming" I reply. "You should try facebook apps."

Second angel non-technie guy I was talking to... "now something like facebook apps, that's what we could get behind."

Ok, fine. You're gonna get your stupid facebook apps. The point I want to make is that facebook apps now are like penny loafers in the 30's.

Wear the heck out of them now and have a couple to show off to your friends, but eventually they are going to be Sunday only dress. Popular, but only 1/7th of your wardrobe.
