Why You Should Pay Attention To How About We Startup

Posted on August 3, 2010

Howaboutwe logo BUSINESS INSIDER – Aug 2 – How About We, a months-old dating service built around proposing and accepting specific date ideas, has been generating an impressive amount of buzz. How About We is a company you should actually pay attention to. Here's why:

– Differentiation. As crowded as the dating industry is, there hasn't been much innovation in the nature of the basic product. 
– Great additional revenue possibilities. This featured date proposal takes place at a restaurant for which Groupon-clone BuyWithMe is currently offering a coupon. 
– Investors like it. 
– There's an obvious early exit. This service has plenty of natural buyers if it catches on. 
– Social media. How About We lends itself much more readily to user-driven distribution through social networks.

IAC Posts Earnings

Posted on April 28, 2010

Iac logo BUSINESS INSIDER – Apr 28 – IAC/InterActiveCorp reported a net loss of $18.7M, or 16 cents per
share, for the Q1 2010. That's compared with a net loss of $28.4M, or
19 cents per share, during the same period last year. Match.com revenue
declined slightly reflecting the sale of Match Europe to Meetic on June
5, 2009, partially offset by the contribution from the People Media and
Singlesnet acquisitions and solid growth from the Match domestic
business. Revenue and subscribers grew 8% and 2%, respectively. FULL ARTICLE @ BUSINESS INSIDER
