Is it infinitely easier? Google tried and failed to make a Facebook competitor too.
- monocasa 8y agoThey also essentially failed to make an ISP, so not a great comparison.
- _bxg1 8y agoCorrection: They succeeded in making one, it just didn't take off as a business. There's a difference. When it comes to simply getting a certain piece of functionality, even an open-source community is free to go build a competitor and give it away for free. The obstacles when it comes to internet infrastructure are encountered before you even get in the gate.
