4:30-6:00 What is Flowtown?
7:30-8:30 Is it your belief that a large amount of this going on is gray or black hat?
8:30-9:30 Were a lot of other startups based on products like yours and Rapleaf?
9:30-10:45 Would there have ever been a problem with this if consumers better understood that their data is public if they put it on a social network?
11:45-13:45 What was the moment like when you found out you were getting shut down?
13:45-15:15 Is it a double-standard that Google can use data like this and other players can't?

17:00-18:30 What do you say to Dave McClure, Mitch Kapor, all of your investors?

35:30-38:30 Do you think Google+ will play a big role in search results?
38:30-43:00 How much of social media is just doing something unique vs. doing something really strategic?
44:15-46:30 Question from the chat: Do "pay by tweet" products that let people pay by tweeting actually create buzz or traffic for a brand?
46:30-47:45 Question from the chat: What do you think about tweeting to enter a sweepstakes? Does that work?
49:45-51:30 What's going on with Facebook in your estimation?
51:30-53:45 Let's take an Ask Jason call from Mitch. Mitch, what's your question?
54:15-57:15 Are you learning a lot where you are?
57:15-1:01:30 Jason's advice: I would start going to incubator events and put yourself out their in the community and get in on the bottom floor of a company.
1:01:30-1:03:00 As much as some people think it's BS, there are lots of secrets and techniques in marketing that are really creating an impact.
