I think the potential here is immense. Boxfish, twitter, YouTube, Siri, and now with Ray Kurzweil @ Google... thinkers are converging on doing to every other form of content what Google did for structured documents. The NLP trend is going to be amusing to watch at least (Siri, Summly), and whether its time has come in the next 5 years or not I'm not certain. But I know Ray Kurzweil knows this technology is inevitable. -- As for BoxFish, I think this is a good example of a neatly executed, well funded startup with experienced founders and a solid space. No drama, no demo day, no immediate fires to put out, cool $3m in the bank, Deutsche Telekom AG subsidiary negotiating their deals for them, and "Yahoo just bought a kids startup for 17m" - the topic is hotter than others.
This is the type of startup I for one daydream of having stock of or working at. Has high potential to be worth $mmms or $bn in the future - you know, that all depends and what not. But the makings are clearly there. Excellent work guys! Congratulations. |
