Big opportunities right now

by Erlend on June 15th, 2011

Someone just asked me what I'm focused on right now. Answer: I'm mostly focused on social (graph) and geo-location on the consumer side. On app/product, I'm looking at innovation and disruption in transportation, education, health/wellness, and mobile transactions. I think The Locker Project from SF based Singly is interesting. I look at semantic web stuff that impacts transaction, commerce, and mobile/local. Advertisers have a lot of challenges ahead and tool companies that help buyers and sellers connect will have a bright future. There's just so much going on right now - it feels like 1999… but very different in that the opportunities and business models are real, the platforms and networks are established, and we've already told everyone what we will do when you let us (thank you TIVO, Netflix, and Google).

Are you awake?
