Heading towards a final beta on our new blackberry app makes us chuckle here as we certainly did toss in a lot of new cool features along the way! Stay tuned!

Good comparison!!

As a hitchhiker, you can stick to your original goal, but all the time new opportunities keep arising. New destinations others tell you about, easier destinations, interesting “sub goals”, etc.

I gave this a thought once, but it does depend on how you define your goals.

we want to create a great blogging tool > take the train and build that great blogging tool

We want to enable people to give them a better experience in sharing their thoughts > go hitch-hiking

as you see in the last example, you are still working towards your goals (creating an awesome experience) though the flexibility of your path increases enormously.

So depending on how you set your goals, hitch-hiking or trains might the appropriate means of transport.
