Why do people waste their time here?

@SW-User I can only imagine all the ad revenue generated for each new original post or story.

@NativeOregonian it is a lot.

@SW-User I tried setting up a similar site like SW back in 1997 when I lived in Portland, and marketed the hell out of it. But it never took off, my best guess in hindsight was that the internet world was not ready for such a platform yet.

@NativeOregonian yeah web 2.0 started in 2004. you were way ahead of the game.

@SW-User Indeed I was too far ahead of the game, so many of us busted bad at the beginning should have retried when 2.0 started, but for most of us it had become too expensive to reattempt.
