There's this place near us that sells $6 large pizzas. So by that metric, we are also pizza profitable. Can't afford the supreme, though! ;) Congrats, gents!
That being said, Airbnb.com is a MUCH slicker website, and most consumers are more comfortable with a professional-looking site and with services they've paid for.
I'd rather use couchsurfing.org. Not only is it free, but the host verification seems better. That being said, Airbnb.com is a MUCH slicker website, and most consumers are more comfortable with a professional-looking site and with services they've paid for.
That said, I too am a couchsurfing aficionado.
Classic internet enabled 'butterfly' market. You have a lot of people who want to crash in a city, a lot of people with spaces and you just need someone to bring them together.
Ooh. I've never heard this term "butterfly market" before, and I might like to know more about it :D Any good links? I'd always called these kinds of business "marketplaces," sites like etsy, elance, etc.
Take used books, there are 1000s of used bookstores and a million readers. the stores can't all separately advertise to all the readers, so you need a common central marketplace, like amazon, to make it possible.

Does this new rating system imply that you can sell the company once you hit Ruth's Chris profitable? :-)

A butterfly market just means a large fuzzy cloud of potential consumers and a large fuzzy crowd of potential suppliers that come together in a little body in the middle = so the shape looks like a butterfly.
