Although its been overexposed in the media, the reality for me is Facebook. Not since Google have we seen a company expand to that magnitude of usage within the wider population.
Facebook was probably the first truly bubble 1.0 company to reach that milestone, and will pave the way for many other companies to do the same.
- elliottcarlson 16y agoUpvoting this not because I agree, but because someone downvoted the parent. This is an opinion based thread - why are people downvoting people when they disagree with an opinion? Especially in a thread like this one?
- KingOfB 16y agoNot that I dis-agree, but do you consider facebook a startup? They seem like they've entered out of that phase to me.
- elliottcarlson 16y agoI certainly don't - and even though Facebook fell out of the realm of startup, it just bothered me that that poster was downvoted for their opinion whether slightly offtopic or not.
- rradu 16y agoBy a loose definition of a startup, I'd say Facebook still is one. They haven't had an exit and took money from DST as recent as last year.
- schammy 16y agoFacebook is not a startup.
