Take aways: to-dos speaking about your competitors
1. Shifting the focus from names (Facebook) to the category (1st generation social apps). Makes your competitors look outdated. Nothing personal :)
2. Calling your competitors "not evil" makes you - look generous, and them, well, .. evil!
3. Talking about user behaviour instead of your product makes people want start using it
