Our lives are full of technology and it feels like we have to wait for everything to happen. We have all just got used to it, from the seconds we wait for our iphone to load the camera app, to the minute or so we wait for our computers to boot up. I for one want instant gratification, you press... it happens... no delay... I wouldn’t say an obsession with speed was unhealthy.

]]> Comment on Deal or No Deal: Is Groupon Now A Sustainable Growth Play? by Andy http://groupmnext.com/2011/12/02/deal-deal-groupon-sustainable-growth-play/#comment-615 Andy Fri, 02 Dec 2011 20:44:54 +0000 http://groupmnext.com/?p=3810#comment-615 The Groupon business model is based on hype and is going to burst just like the dotcoms. How can a model that relies on it's customers (the businesses taking part in the offers with Groupon, not the end coupon user) losing money with such high risks sustain itself? Groupon fails to deliver genuine value to business owners. The Groupon business model is based on hype and is going to burst just like the dotcoms.

Do they still achieve the same ranking (because, although someone is not logged in, 15 people who are, have recommended the site) or do they come lower in the list as if they have no +1's at all?
