I can't help but agree. Many companies that have explosive growth tend to depend on it. If the growth is explosive enough, they may end up eating their entire market. Now they have no growth (which is okay in some cases but); since they depend on it, they implode.
Either change your business model to use what you already have and optimize your existing assets... or implode.
- onion2k 12y agoThey've already changed their business model. So long as Facebook are reasonably astute they have enough assets that they can just buy any competitor that looks promising. Their real challenge isn't remaining relevant to the market themselves any more; it's making sure they're quick enough to buy enough innovative startups so that Google/Apple/etc can't gain too much of the ad market and managing the process of integrating those startups in to the Facebook platform seamlessly.
