- ThomPete 14y agoPlease remember the context of this discussion. They point is that Googles revenue comes form one source and they haven't been able to find another just yet as users are moving to mobile. The growth you see is based on a revenue model made a long time ago not on their current performances which are to say the least as embarrassing as anything MS have done over the years. This should be concerning investors in google more than anything. Cause what do they do when most people are on mobile?
- rieter 14y agoGoogle owns mobile advertisement, as well as mobile search. They are in an excellent position for the future.
- ThomPete 14y agoReally? Why aren't they making any money with it now then?
- Useful_Idiot 14y agoBecause the entire industry is a shell game? ~Fundamentals, people, fundamentals. [aka: if you really think that a producer of gadgets is worth more than most countries' GDP, then you're a fucking idiot. Apple et al is a shell game. ~$100 billion for toys. Not how humanity got to the moon]
- Useful_Idiot 14y agohttp://ycombinator.com/newswelcome.html http://ycombinator.com/newswelcome.html The level to which the user base has ignored this, and merely uses the down-vote button to incline their personal displeasure is hilarious. If you don't want to be Digg / Reddit / Metafilter, then don't trust your monkey user base Hint: I've never used a "down-vote" button, on any site, even in realms of rabid Libertarian Neo-Fascist thought-land. Why? . . Because I'm not a fucking retard who thinks their personal opinion means that their self image as a 'special snowflake' is valid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo-wkv8gW6k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo-wkv8gW6k HN is seemingly full of idiots.
