I think the market is there- they just entered pretty early and possibly didn't let the market define itself. They might have found out that it was a lot more than financial. That the bunker mentality of trying to build something 'perfect' doesn't work for start-ups these days is the lesson I took from this. I've worked in both scenarios and with Techrigy things are a lot more flexible. We screw up but we also keep improving which seems to be what the customers really want- they know this is new territory.

I couldn't agree with your "Failure" comment more. Alter your perception and instead of looking at your mistakes as negatives, view them as lessons and try not to make them again. After all, human beings learn from mistakes. Robert Kiyosaki stated in one of his audios, “If we did not learn from our mistakes, no one would be able to walk.”

interesting his point about the financial times article, as that was a big wake-up call at Collective Intellect that the market for this was progressing. apparently, wasn't the case.
