I guess it’s all about balancing expression and consumption widgets with what your target users will respect and welcome…

But as a young guy… I love the uniqlock!

Link baiting is the real state of art in internet marketing industry. I found extremely tought developing widgets.

A fair point well made. To be honest though I wasn’t suggesting that they are an example of a company who could burst onto the high street or really grab people’s imaginations; rather that online, sometimes functionality is enough.

Would I go into Amazon or eBay if they existed in the real world? I’m not sure I would - they would probably be a bit like a confusing warehouse. But online? They do just fine.

XE.com - do they do anything else??? What is it, other than a currency converter? Do they ever make money? They’re my converter of choice online…but would I go to them on the high street? Do they exist physically?
