Hi Joshua
Would you invest in a pure mobile play (i.e. Something you needed a specific type of phone for)?
Reason i'm asking is that I quite often hear "yeah but what about everyone who doesn't have an XXX".
Cheers,
Einar
- joshu 16y agoI am not fond of secondary franchises. If you are going to live in the shade of one tree, it'd better be a huge fucking tree. I am also not fond of temporary opportunities. If you are doing X for Android because there's a successful X for iPhone and nobody has done it yet, then it's not a scaleable business.
- mattmaroon 16y agoIt worked pretty damn well for Playdom. They did X for Myspace because there was an X for Facebook and it took them to a huge amount of revenue. It's scalable as long as you can keep finding new Xes indefinitely.
- joshu 16y agoSure. I'm not saying it won't work - I'm just saying what I prefer to invest in. Lots of things that I pass on go on to get acquired. It often makes me feel stupid and doubt my strategy and decision-making. I'm also not entirely sure that I'm actually any good at this.
