Nic – for the 169797th time…

the BIG money will only flow when the returns show MASSIVE POTENTIAL.

so if we start having global ideas, SA (and hopefully Cape Town as i’m a bit biased towards this beautiful city) will become the new Silicon Valley / Herzlia.

however, there is still plenty space for new local ideas, and competition for existing ideas, hopefully with some of them bringing something fresh to the party (imagine SA reunited or one of the other 3 or 4 that were floating along, had the vision to become the next facebook)

so create new local only sites, create more competition amongst existing concepts…

and hopefully make lots of money…

and then launch innovative global ideas which attract the big money and which propel SA into a new era.

for the record, i’m doing all of them – launching a few SA only concepts which probably won’t go global, providing more competition for sites that might not go global but i believe will make money, AND am involved in a number of projects that have the POTENTIAL OF BEING GLOBAL AND MASSIVE!

but if we want an Internet EXPLOSION in our country, we have to be thinking BIG – …at least some of the time…
