Currently Indian System is not made for Idea creation / execution with Current Caste/Political/Administration System of Society .. Chinese last cpl of yrs are being goaded to File Max patents ... Europeans Consider themselves they skill full Artists as SCIENTISTS/INNOVATORS .. Its all in the make up of Mind.... No Rewards for Research in India ... we look at Easy Money ...may be next generation will look at his after 10 yrs ... | ||

Self Confidence is not a problem, and risk taking attitude as I told is related to the culture. It is difficult to be a failure or live by taking credit and not repaying it in our society, which is difft in US Go to Gym every day to reduce weight Argue with only one (out of Adavi, Sasi, Kaleja etc..,) at a time to reduce BP Continue to permanently ignore Andhrawala Poster of the week to discuss: None (to start good in new year), next week (17th to 24th Jan): Sasi | ||

It all looks good during post mortem. Investment comes in 2 phases and in 2 ways: One Phase is initial capital and second is the money you would need during growth. Before Facebook made any money they would have invested certainly more than 19K. The 2 ways I told about: One is money that you will spend, and the other is money that goes in as investment of time from multiple people. You need to get a team of people who believes in the idea passionately, blindly enough to support you for few years before they start seeing money. It is not an easy combination to get all of these. And as I said most important thing about the idea is NEED. Indian consumers/customers dont need a Facebook or Linkedin. I still dont understand what's new in Facebook or what's special in Facebook. It is the current trend of networking online that is driving its growth. All its valuation is on paper. I will be surprised if a company want to buy them at 50bn at which it is being valuated.

Agreed. But what about the alumni of those institutes who may be studying / working in usa/uk etc. I am sure money is not a constraint for most of them. Again, Mark started face book with 1000 bucks first and then added another 18K... not a huge amount in any sense. Same with google... they started it from a Garage in Calif with few hundred bucks.

In my view, I think it is because of the following: 1. Credit Culture in India: To start something on your own you need MONEY. That is the first and foremost important thing. India lo appu teesukovadam is related to your status quo in the society. Appu anedi bharam gaa feel avutaam. So appu chesi ventures start cheyyadam or business cheyyadam is not feasible from a mindset perspective. 2. Need: Most of the Innovations that clicked in USA in the last 2 decades depends on/uses technology to the core. India lo antha mandi users leru, daani need ledu. For Indian population need is not a facebook or linkedin or google.

FB advantage is that it started from college campuses so has a strong loyalty factor. in addition, has some really cool apps/games to go with it. choodham ennallu nadusthadho bandi. orkut had an ugly UI, same with myspace.

Yes. But I think they under estimated themselves and had a target of 2012 for IPO. But if social network movie can make a sweep on feb 27 at oscars , they can pretty much go for IPO sometime around June/July before we are hit by another recession if any. | ||

Agree, but the bank benefits (from fees as well as the shares they are buying pre ipo) are proportional to the initial hype/speculation surrounding the IPO, right? I think, FB is building that momentum and hype at the right time for IPO. Maybe 'Social Network' movie timing is also helping them. | ||

Now it is valued at 50 B i guess I had the same doubts. But i read somewhere an interesting analysis abt why it is worth so many billions "As of now it connects 500 million+ people around the world. Most of them spend considerable amount of time on the site everyday. So, It provides excellent platform for advertising" Don't say you don't have enough time.

I think this factor is playing hugely into the valuations being floated around for FB. I sometimes wonder why Orkut did not click this big. It is exactly same as FB and had huge initial euphoria around it. Guess it failed to sustain the momentum. | ||

Not exactly true. Goldman Sachs put $1.5 billion into facebook in hopes that they would be the investment bankers when facebook goes public in 2012. The IPO will generate hundreds of millions of dollars in fees for the investment bank that leads it. | ||
