I'm not entirely sure what you're getting it because it seems like your making a pretty strong correlation between companies that provide physical goods as necessities and thus are worth more than those that provide digital goods

You're telling me Amazon's financials were beautiful when they IPO'd? They're barely pretty now.

Lol, as did Twitter, as did Diapers.com, as did a thousand others this isn't me saying "Now's the time everybody! Pour your entire retirement fund into SNAP before it's too late!" it's an admonishment for the s

Truth be told I love Amazon for the innovation they've brought to most of the industries they've touched but it's like there's some aura of trust around them just because they have brought some of their might against Fac

Slack isn't in the business of offering competing services based on the data that flows through their systems. Something you can't exactly say is true with Amazon.

What I'm saying is Bezos & Co. might be gaming for the next generation of the handset. Bezos loves his 2-year runways so I doubt he's interested in any current smartphone ecosystem but in making inroads with consumers and deve
