:: YADP, YADP, YADP ::

This is how it goes.

"My friend and I have this idea for a start-up, you know the desktop icons, they are boring, people would like to share them with others and chat about it. My friend he wrote a little program that help people switch desktop icons with one another, it is going to be a revolution. We are about to release the first version and it is Viral, any one we showed it to thinks it is cool, YADP, YADP, YADP, we will sell this to AOL and we will be millionaires."

Hey, there is something wrong here; the seinfeld episode said "Yada" not "YADP".

True.

But.

YADP stands for "Yet Another Downloadable Program" which is in fact a Wadi syndrome. Someone, who people listen to here on the Wadi, said once that you don't need marketing, these days all you need to do is upload your software to the web and if it is good, someone will call you. Well in a way he was right, but not literally. If you have something good people will download it.

But first it has to be good, really good. Or...

"My friend and I have this idea for a start-up, YADP, YADP, YADP, we already have 1200 downloads and it only took us three months."

Do you work for a YADP company?
