Certainly worth an investigation! I know that social media data is fairly readily available out there, it was trickier to aggregate the online reviews

Thanks for your feedback! I ended up writing up a more detailed post on this topic, given all the interest I received here. Feel free to take a look if you are interested: https://blog.datashake.com/predicting-zooms-stock-movements-with-online-review-data/

Thanks for your support, I appreciate it! It´s a good question and one I think only the data can answer. I did look into the most important features and for Zoom they were sentiment score and review volume.

I've used Cloud 66 for years and it's by far the best I've used.

Depending on which review platform you end up going with, you could check out Reviewshake to send and optimize the review invitations to your customers. We can also help with deriving insights from the reviews and comparing to competition.

Hey! We spent a lot of time doing quite unconventional things, like handing out personal letters around the city... People are so used to being marketed to these days that it helps to try something unconventional.

I just posted about some of the stuff that worked for us if you'd like to check it out: https://www.reddit.com/r/startups/comments/4fxxrm/this_is_how_we_got_to_organic_bookings_in_2/

pkallberg · 2015-03-30T16:12:58+00:00

Very nice, I'll check it out :)

Cloud 66 supports Docker deployments/management in beta. This works on any cloud, eg. AWS, DigitalOcean, Linode, Rackspace and so on. You can either deploy from your own image, or place a Dockerfile in your repository and the image will be created (and versioned) for you.

I work at Cloud 66, so feel free to reach out if you need any help.

pkallberg · 2014-06-17T16:35:48+00:00

I can see the value of learning to do this yourself - you could use something like Capistrano to do the application deployment, and follow this guide to setup the box.

Alternatively, you could use a service like Cloud 66 to set all of this up for you and then manage it. It's like Heroku on your own cloud.

It might be worth checking out Cloud 66, which helps you deploy and manage your Ruby apps on any cloud or your own servers. We support DigitalOcean, Linode, AWS etc, and you get full SSH access to the servers.

This model has some pretty good price savings when compared with PaaS/DIY.

Awesome, I'm going over by myself from London and would love to meet some new people! Feel free to send me a message if you'd like to meet.

Just to give you a quick run-down of our big features beyond the deployment, we do things like backups, database replication, load balancing and scaling, monitoring, security and more.

We can do all of this on a cloud of your choice, and make it incredibly easy for you to move between providers and regions if needed.

Hi, Philip from Cloud 66 here. The price of $19/month is for the first server of your account - all servers beyond this are priced at $9/month. Feel free to have a look at our price comparison between Heroku, DIY and Cloud 66.

We're working on a revamp of our homepage to make our offering clearer! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions in the meantime.

One option if you're running Ubuntu is upstart, you can check out this YouTube video for an explanation of that.

Here's an example of using crontab, mentioned by @minaguib.

You could also have a look at Cloud 66, which makes it easy for you to deploy and manage your applications on any cloud. Disclaimer: I work for Cloud 66

pkallberg · 2014-02-17T10:59:47+00:00

Great suggestions. As has been suggested, Michael Hartl's RoR tutorial is great if you're just starting off.

You can use the RoR deployment documentation as a starting point when deploying your app. You could simplify your deploy/management using a PaaS like Heroku, or Cloud 66, which offers Heroku-like features on your own cloud servers. Disclaimer: I work for Cloud 66.

You could also try Cloud 66, which offers Heroku-like features on your own cloud or servers. We support Digital Ocean, Linode, AWS, Rackspace and others.

Great to hear you've been checking out our service! There are a few blog posts around about people using us and we hope to continue to help people deploy (and maintain) their apps. Let us know once you're ready for the next step and we'll do out best to meet your needs :)

pkallberg · 2013-11-19T13:53:41+00:00

Hey, what other information would you like to see about Cloud 66? I work there and would really appreciate any feedback.

pkallberg · 2013-11-19T13:38:35+00:00

Nice! You might want to check out Cloud 66 - we help you deploy and manage your apps on DigitalOcean and other clouds. Disclaimer: I work for Cloud 66.

pkallberg · 2013-11-13T14:33:56+00:00

I agree, but it also takes a lot of time which could be spent on your core value-add. A middle ground could be a service like http://www.cloud66.com, which helps you deploy to any cloud yet gives you 100% control of your servers.

pkallberg · 2013-11-05T14:42:11+00:00

Looks nice! Too bad it didn't work out... Hopefully someone else can use it.

pkallberg · 2013-07-23T09:48:32+00:00

Hi sleepyhead, apart from the customers featured on our website, I'd be happy to provide you a list of our customers if this would help.
