"We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

it's not enough to just be able to engage with brands. posters need a way to broadcast their brand identities. outdated avatar mechanics give way to an organic, people first, democratic brand identity where posters construct their own brand collage. brand ambassadors can give out brand icons and badges to add to your collage of course, but the power of the community that gave us hits like slenderman and low carb can be unleashed for dynamic, user driven brand inspired art.

This is 100% dead on -- we need an influencer campaign. Free accounts and perks given to powerful, high-reach individuals who we can turn into brandvangelists. Why don't we start with Wil Wheaton????

guys (and ladies, but let's be honest), we just got word from the exec team that they're accepting proposals for a total refresh of the SA site. we're starting from scratch on the front and backend. So let's have it, what are your best new ideas? what technologies should we use? what features do we need? what technical debt do we need to address?

I'll collate your best ideas and submit them as a blueprint for the E-team

Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

this but with "official" apps and in-app purchases/subscriptions

no need for a payment processor other than the platform vendor in TYOOL 2015
