Very true. There is an obvious ROI for him. However, he is one of the busiest guys I know and still manages to make it happen. Regardless of incentive, it shows it is possible to manage both a high growth start up and a powerful personal brand.

I am currently running an enterprise software project on meteor with thousands of pieces of data in the database. If I published all of the data at once, it would crash the browser. I know because I actually did it when developing. Once you write the correct publish functions, it runs extremely quickly and only has the information you need in memory. All of this data is reactive too. And yes, you can paginate the information.
1. There is not a Stumble button. The way you stumble to a new photo is by clicking on the current photo (or the surrounding black area). I was going for a UI similar to the Facebook photo viewer. Clearly I need to make this more obvious (maybe a welcome dialog explaining?).
2. I was going to add a bunch of filters that let you stumble based on all different pieces of Facebook data (time, people, etc.). I just have not had time because this is more of a side project for me. However, adding a button to remove a person would be really easy. I will add that feature in later today.
It does fetch the data in the background and starts queuing up photos via javascript. However, if you refresh the page, it has to re-fetch all of the data (horrifically slow page loads). If you click on the photos to stumble, it will go much faster.
Once again, thank you for the feedback. I really appreciate it. I will do some more work on it and post it back up in a week or two.
