Steve Rubel Crushes Wrickr

Steve Rubel referenced new startup Wrickr, which I guess (it’s hard to tell) will be yet-another-personalized-RSS-page thingie. It’s another example of a start-up’s server getting crushed when an A-lister points to your domain, because when I went to the blog, and attempted to click through on the demo (like 25,000 others) I got the interesting error message: “XML error: not well-formed (invalid token) at line 25” — I bet the server’s sideways.

Also, another indicator of undue haste in launching — typos and grammatical errors:

[from Welcome to Wrickr! ( Beta; 2006-01-06 )]


Have you ever try to find good and easy example of start websites which could be easy to manage. We decided to start small project called my personal star homepage. Now you can try the demo. It looks like Google Personalized but it’s going to be much better.
