Online (at least on the margin), the cost of resources is already sufficiently close to zero so as to not matter.
If that's the case, why does StackOverflow need venture funding? VCs investing money in such sites are surely looking for returns in money. So, what's the OP really trying to say?
I must be missing something. Can someone please explain?
