DISQUS

VentureBeat: Facebook users vote for iLike, but what happened to Audio?

  • Zaid · 2 years ago
    Eric, what about all the user complaints about iLike on iLike's facebook wall?
  • Tamar Weinberg · 2 years ago
    ZAID: I have no relationship with iLike except that I installed their app on my Facebook profile.

    Generally, you need to work on the core problems -- servers first -- before you focus on the other issues. How can they possibly address the smaller issues when the load is preventing them from even getting the application to run smoothly?

    I assume that once the server quota is met, they'll be able to be more active and fix the problems that users are encountering with the iLike application, but until then, users will just have to wait.

    In any event, I'm having fun playing the iLike challenge at 5am.

    Zaid, I think Tamar is right about scaling. Many of the complaints on the iLike wall were about that issue.

    Still, the wall has been pretty negative about other aspects. The app is STILL doubling in size (now at around 315k), so the commenters must be a just fraction of the total users

    It's amazing for such a rapid growth, we can find the strength of co-marketing here and the advantage of open-platform.

    The network effect that facebook has on these third party widget and application providers is mind boggling. Also of note is that the most popular does not mean the most useful. ;)

    Cheers and hooooray to facebook for making this move. It is going the raise the bar for many companies and offer opportunities for the smart companies to leverage the network.

    We immediately started a ratings and review blog of new applications and widgets available on facebook. We think it is important to bring knowledge of some great apps with video and text reviews to help people to decide what applications to consider.

    Are you still of the same opinion re: iLike ie; "I think it will get removed"?

    Honestly!
