Building for that same collection 53K people is of course absurd - how many ajax calender companies can one pool that small support? We're about to find out. On the other hand, finding different niche groups may be sustainable. I see no reason to assume that Wal-Mart and TechCrunch are the only two options, because lots of industries & niches love to see bespoke software just for them: web chat for realtors, scheduling for architects, social bookmarking for intelligence analysts, blogs for professors, etc. The early end of the adopter curve points in many different directions.

So from that perspective, hyping to a small cult is far more profitable than trying to actually build a company which delivers a service useful to the average person.
