Still kind of shady (or is it just me??..): When they launched DrawQuest, Canvas was already dead. However they did not acknowledge this in any way. Today Canvas is still online while not having any proper audience or any changes to the site for like 2 years. All in all they got like $3.6 million for Canvas in funding without any income.
He writes it himself:
> we created DrawQuest after the failure of our first product, Canvas
Why keep it online for another 2 years if it failed? I don't get it.
Not sure about his case, but in my case I still keep my failed startup online (http://friendcameo.com/)
Mine failed in the sense that there's no way of growing or monetizing it in a way that's worth my time and effort. But at the same time, I can sometimes run experiments/surveys on it that allows me to learn and apply finding to other more successful ideas.
