It's true that "Google wasn't the first search engine. McDonalds wasn't the first hamburger joint. Facebook wasn't the first social network."
However, each of them had something original. McDonalds had a very well conceived strategy around franchise. Google was crazy fast from day one. I'm not sure for Facebook, except that using email domains from big universities help to spread.
If you copy everybody else, you need to find something which differentiate your product, too, and fast I think. I saw many startup trying to follow their concurrents without bringing anything better or new, and it doesn't really work. I mean, it was better for their founders, but not really for the customer.
Now, it's a bit what you're saying when you say "makes it better". I just wanted to bring some other thoughts.
Very good view on the word "finishing"!
