Give me a break. I founded an internet company when I was 22 years old, and sold it to the world's most well-known encryption company. I'm not going to get in a pissing contest with someone as obviously presumtive and clueless as yourself. >i guess you don't have experience building an internet company so this basic >level of strategic thinking is foreign to you.

i suppose i was vague in my post, my error. the key phrase for any internet company is "innovate or die". innovate because the medium changes at lightening pace and die because you will if you don't stay competitive. we all know the product life cycle of an internet company is dramatically different than that of your typical brick and mortar company which is where the 1 to 10 year analogy was born. i guess you don't have experience building an internet company so this basic level of strategic thinking is foreign to you. It is funny but I was hosting a local bulletin board with multiple lines when you were 9. However, you understand the internet better than I? It is interesting that young people believe they know it all when they hardly know a thing. Glenn
