so the little niche dudes,
are always going to be lean and mean,
and are always going to be the driver,
and are always going to be a thorn,

There are hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of little niche dudes out there right now. There's only one problem: I know the URL for none. But I do know ONE BIG one that's peculiarly hard to forget. Multiply me by all my neighbors and all your neighbors and all their neighbors' neighbors. See here's the thing: search engines SUCK. I'm not saying you couldn't find one of them thorns, just saying it ain't no fun... not to mention people's totally irrational (yet existing!) fear of giving out their Visa # to "John's Totally Thorny Book Emporium."

Even the Scientologists tell you (mantra-like), as they add new movie stars daily, Big is better...Big is better. BIG.

I was once on the dark side (even lost a few K on puts)... join us believers now, your neighbors will thank you!

ps No matter how Klunky the toy: if it costs less to make, hold, and ship it still helps cover those nasty fixed costs. I'm guessing the new 'dude' from MIT knows how to skim a sweet profit off every item coming down the line. Welcome to Candyland.

I'm just following who your profile told me to follow ;-)
