Ditesh, tell me about your social gratification. Does it have anything
to do with the fetchgals app?

I was listening to anthony robbins last night, (GF had it on audio) and
he was saying. Even if you "fail, it doesn't mean you've failed, you've
just learned how not to do it the next time" and when it comes to open
source, the more Head Banging (either literally or otherwise, but I
personally been doing a lot of the former) you do, the more you learn,
and the more you learn, and you blog about it, you're telling people How
_not_ to do it.

Then again, ppl do need to eat :-)
