Porn and Startups. More Similar than you May Think

Afternoon Folks!!

A little "Birdie" sent this to me a few minutes ago and thought it interesting.

"The current challenge faced by both porn companies and Web startups is how to differentiate themselves. Since there’s only so much you can do, the answer for both industries has been to pursue increasingly small and bizarre niches."

Sound Familiar?

There are a number of parallels the writer of this article articulates and they have some validity.

Until folks look at the lessons the porn industry has learned , they are ripe to repeat their mistakes and likely a much more expensive lesson. Just remember one thing as I see it being in both places.....Adult circa 1997 and mainstream circa 2013 have yet to intersect. But we are getting VERY CLOSE to that happening. It COULD happen in the next 12 months and I have NEVER said that before. Once that happens, this industry will be transformed and folks will never look back.

    Hi Rick,
    We wish your forecast comes true sooner and folks, took action get huge opportunity and never regret for dealing with domains. During .Com crash you have been just busy collecting domains that were free while others (including me) understood its value a bit late. However, your words are so encouraging that folks will never fear to jump into this game. Thanks for the time and efforts to make the world aware of domains. Gratefully, Altaf
