Facebooks Geschäftsmodell

Chris Dixon verdeutlicht den Unterschied zwischen Googles und Facebooks Geschäftsmodell.

Google makes the vast majority of their revenues when people search for something to buy or hire. They don’t have to stoke demand – they simply harvest it. When people use Facebook, they are generally socializing with friends. You can put billboards all over a park, and maybe sometimes you’ll happen to convert people from non-purchasing to purchasing intents. But you end up with a cluttered park, and not very effective advertising.
