My recent post about the latest tech IPO; Pandora, already detailed doubts around the succesful IPO in an industry under siege. And this prediction seems to have come true.

The post-IPO price of $26 per share on Wednesday saw a quick drop tp #17.42 at the end of the day. Currently the share is trading for $13.26 according to Yahoo! Finance.

Pandora is facing significant losses for the second quarter, which doesn’t give much hope for continued high performance. The only success story up untill now is that of LinkedIn which is currently trading at $68.27, up by $23 from it’s IPO share price of about $45.

I will not keep the closest eye on ‘P’s’ performance but if there is any big news I’ll report.

It seems to me, at least it is like this in the Netherlands, that people read or watch the media outlet of their choice, and only that media outlet. Are people censoring their own opinions? Or might it just be that any form of media inherently censors, or at least, subjectively decides on relevant information and newsworthyness. (more…)

Of the 250 mln users Facebook currently has, 60 mln have at least logged in once using their mobile phone!

I’m hoping for the day (probably next year) that I don’t have any need for text messaging any more, I could just send my friends Facebook messages.

Because of me posting my opinion in this month’s folia, I thought it would be nice to include my other media appearance as well! So click on for the Metro article featured on my previous company, Netgamez.
