I think that is a good point. For start-ups who are interested in making messaging services, I wonder what Durov's recommendation would be as far as financials go. One has to be able to support the team they are working with and there are few people out there who can take the route Durov has due to his financial freedom.
- harigov 12y agoIn certain way, cost of doing business has reduced because of cloud service providers. However, network effects and the scale requirements still add up and make it hard for startup's to work on their long term vision. It would be nice if computation was similar to electricity. That way, the onus of paying for the services lies on the end users - the more you use, the more you pay. It is more straightforward and startups can sustain paying themselves for few years without having to worry about paying for computation, storage and network.
