Nobody has any idea about new pension thing happening
Kidding right?
I earn what is meant to be an above average, even decent wage, but with cost of traveling , rent etc I barely scrape through each month with food in the cupboard and rent paid.
I like many others are in a catch 22 where we can't afford NOT to put away for our future but neither can we afford TO put away for our future as it's hard enough just surviving day to day.
There is no way I'll ever save up enough for a deposit for a Mortagage, let along have assets for retirement, I'm just another work till I die pleb :(
My company has a very generous contribution plan for Pensions but I need to put something insane like 1/4 of my monthly take home in which I can do if I stop paying my rent and eating maybe....
Four months' porridge for 20-minute Facebook riot page
Wow well on my history I posted at one point that I had a really *shit* day at work, lets go looting.
This was a joke based on my previous dozen posts were about how angry I was about the looters actions and how they felt entitled and right to do this for the dumbest of reasons.
Should I go spend 4 months in jail, loose my job my home and destroy my familly as sole bread winner for a bad joke? ffs perspective people.....

Heres a tip
If you are entering a number field like date, serial numbers etc that are getting fubar'd by Excel, especially that damn Scientific number conversion for long numbers, then just insert a ' before the number, then Excel leaves it the hell alone and it goes in exactly as you typed it.
Anonymous unsheathes new, potent attack weapon
The question is...
If you are on TOR and your NODE is used as the hopping off point for some DDOS'ing are the plod likely to try and finger you for it given the woefully tech ignorant state of the justice system or average juror with something akin to Oh you HAD to know TOR would be used for illegal purposes you are guilty!!!! (LIke anyone who ever uses a Torrent is a Pirate or plays a computer game is a mass murderer etc etc)
Two solicitors fined and suspended for file-sharer letters
The lawer article...
The lawers article seems to put a nice slant on it totally ignoring the bits about knowingly sending notices to innocent parties and mis-representing evidence so I can understand why some people using that site as a sole information source may get uppity.
Thats why I like to read multiple news sources, you can never trust any single one to give you the whole story!!
well...except the reg of course!!!

Neighbourhood watchers in Reading get speedguns
Why do I get a funny feeling....
That these people are not going to be properly trained or checked on and the equipment not maintanined and accurate records kept...
Also as a biker who knows full well these things just don't work on bikes I'd be MORE than a little annoyed if I started getting letters from these twats accusing me of speeding when I'm not.

Conviction overturned for abuse images bought from bookshop
Sounds like a nightmare scenario!
Googled that book and sure enough there are more freaking risque picks of me in the nuddy as a wee lad in the family album.
I should hand in the one of me riding my bike in the nude down the high street when I was about 4 to the police so they can arrest my parents for making and distributing, and then they can get on tracking down everyone who was in the highstreet that day for viewing!
The scary thing is as said, he was found guilty once! and had to appeal!
If that were me it would be worse as I have a young daughter myself to whom I would no doubt loose access for the duration of this whole fiasco if not longer!

Latest boffinry: Feeding TNT to sheep
Awwww :(
And to think if they were explosive you could add a few of these to your average rural flock to dissuade those who take sheep love a little too literally, or at least turn it into something of an extreme danger sport ;)

Hacker admits stealing $12m worth of chips from Zynga
Anyone mad enough to spend real money on pretend poker chips should be seperated from their money anyway.
Got Zynga poker on my phone and I'm upto 300k without spending a damn penny, it's really not difficult =/

(Not sure the wife will want to join me for it though, she thought Machete was bad enough!)
Videogame TRAINS TERRORISTS, yells pundit
It makes you wonder
How on earth did those poor terrorists, martyrs, freedom fighters, sucide bombers ever get along a scant decade or so ago before the era of FPS and XBOX!
Back then we were stupid enough to think there may be REASONS for their actions (you know...like occupation or having your friends and family killed by "those guys") but it seems they were just the early beta testers for FPS games, oh how obvious it seems now looking back!
Disappearing filth leads to dropped charges in extreme smut case
I'm sure i'm not the first or last to say
DOH Ctrl V instead of Ctrl C (Assuming they use windoze which seems almost a certainty)
Then i suppose they either didn't consider it worth trying a forensic recovery of the file (Don't they normally make images of the drives before messing around with the contents though??) was worth it or that it hurt their prosecution chances enough to drop it.
And i'm not being funny but with the AWFUL definition of extreme porn, only a single image is really quite impressive, I'm sure I could trawl through any random machine and find a half dozen images cached somewhere that would probably fit the description.
iPhone glitch gets US fanbois up on wrong side of bed
Not all fixed by re-creating
Deleting and re-creating the alarms doesn't always fix them.
I forwarned our IPhone users and told them to do this, i was one of many whos alarm went off an hour late even though it was deleted and re-created and I've since had to set one up to go off at 4:30am so it actually gets me up at 5:30 am.
Luckily I don't rely on the Iphone to get me up (I have a 6 month old baby for that, and failing THAT..I have a blackberry =p)
Police turn to extreme-sport mobe sucking
what's wrong with...
What's wrong with just dismantling it and sticking it in the airing cupboard for a day or two? always worked for me!
If it's something nastier than just water than a quick wash with purified water prior to a drying should sort it as long as it's not been submerged for a long time...or in acid =p
Cisco jump-starts home 'telepresence'
The problem isn't so much the reliability
Whilst I deal with IP VC across multiple regions over our own internal network (well...MPLS etc)
I find the quality and reliability to be pretty good and the problem isn't so much the reliability...but more the fact that the average Jo (or at least I do), need a few hours with a make-up artist before sitting before a HD VC Bridge as these things really aren't as forgiving as our old regular res running over a couple of flakey ISDN's type kit. :(
The latest Polycom kit will happily do full HD (well 720p) across 512k of bandwidth
Also anyone worried about Cisco doing VC kit, don't worry, it's all Polycom kit with the badge swapped over :)
(Cisco is at once Polycom's biggest compettitor, and customer, apparently...)
Youth jailed for not handing over encryption password
RE The comparison to house search
For all those setting up the strawman of "Warrant to search the permise"
If the police picked you up from your place of work or off the street and told you they had a warrant to search your house and you said
"FIne but I've lost/broken my house key and don't have a backup copy".
You would NOT go to jail for 5 years for loosing your f***ing door key, they would just break in and search the house.

Would a prosethic facial warmer be acceptable for those of us with the unfortunate gentic disposition that does not allow for the growing of such fearsome facial attire.
MoD labels Facebook Places a 'targeting pack' for terrorists
Address book too
Wow...apparently even though I said NO when the mobile app asked to upload my phone book...it did it anyway.
(Account - edit friends - phonebook)
A mate just pointed out my entire phone book including some very sensitive info both work and personal is now open to world+dog.
App is being gutted, info removed, then uninstalled, I've had enough :(
I only use FB as a nice place to dump photos to share and keep tabs on events, not worth the constant creeping of info sharing against my consent.
Oh ffs
I don't post anything to facebook I wouldn't be happy for world+dog to see, that way I don't worry so much about security breaches.
But ffs adding a "feature" that automatically tells world+dog my exact location regarldess of if I actually choose to allow it or not (because they decided to set it to everyone by default and link it to the mobile app that didn't have this feature when I installed it) is not on.
Seriously tempted to remove it on basis of that alone even though I don't really care if people know what pub I go to after work or which floor I decide to go to the toilet on...
*suffice to say this has been disabled now but the idea that I have to keep constant tabs on what they decide to share with the world next without my permission is worrying*
India claims access to BlackBerry comms
levels of encryption
This still wouldn't solve the actuall issue of people setting up their own BES where they set it up as they please.
Man vindicated for videotaping his own traffic stop
I also
Watched the video even after reading the whole article and still had that OMFG i'm being robbed feeling.
But any thought of "fleeing" was quickly out as I would be an easy target and hitting a pedestrian with a small bike like that wouldn't have gotten him away so easily.
On my K1200 LT I would give it a damn good try though!
Also may I say as a biker there was nothing wrong with the guys riding!, yes the wheelie on a public road is silly but he only sped/wheelied between empty spots of traffic and was a risk to no-one but himself for that very short moment of silly fun.
No reason at all to pull a gun on someone and shout several times to get off the bike BEFORE you remember to say oh yeah I'm a cop, not that this will make you feel any better.
As for the filming, the guy didn't go out to film the cop, so the offence really seems to be posting it up, but then helmet cams are not exactly inconspicous!
I got one purely for the number of times some idiots hit me or caused me to take emergency evasion then f**ed off so I had something to take to the police and my insurance company, nautrally no silly hijinks recorded.
And it would be fairly easy to rig a setup to stream the recording to a secure store online rather than a solid state media locally with only minimal sotrage for spooling during low/no signal periods.
Playboy centrefold freaks out at 10,000 feet
Don't they also
Apart from the simple physics of it making a puny human opening the door at alititude impossible, don't they also install and lock huge bolt through a number of key points?
I fly regularly with BA and see them install/remove number of bolts into the door frame on take off and landing that I presumed were to secure the door until they wanted to let people out?
USB stick with anti-terror training found outside police station
Extreme Pr0n
Ahh of course with the Extreme Pr0n laws meaning possesion regardless knowledge or means of aquisation is the crime, just stick Extreme pr0n on USB sticks as standard, that way if anyone has the audacity to find one that has been lost they can immediatly be arrested and locked up :)
Death by iPod: beware the zombie trance
Nothing new
I've been mowing down Lemmings glued to their phones/mp3 players/Walkmans for over a decade now.
The hunting is particularly rich in Central London where you get Lemmings who don't even need the aid of an audio device to run out in front of traffic.
IT engineer fights spider with improvised flamethrower
The reason for not using a flamethrower
I imagine he didn't want to flamethrower it to death if it was behind the loo as that would inevitably melt/weaken the plastic pipes and cause considerable problems and leakage.
So problably thinking himself very clever decided to gas it to death instead, I've done this to the occasional wasp that got into the house and refused to use any of the open windows/doors and had to be disposed off.
Sadly this appears to have exhausted his daily intelligence quota leaving him to then check the results of his deed in an enclosed space with a naked flame.
Half of UK road users support usage-based road charging

OK so I'm no mathmatician but 38% positive response in a poll clearly worded to skew more positive results = Half UK road users support?
How extreme is your pr0n? Depends on your lawyer
Scarrily I had that reaction to publishing photos of my baby girl at approx 5 seconds old.
Family Member: YOU CAN'T SEND THAT TO PEOPLE!! It's shows her moo moo!
Me: errr...that's how they are born?
Family Member: But what if some pervert gets off on it?
Me: errrr....a) I imagine very few people actually get off on newborns
b) I'm sending it to people I KNOW and TRUST
c) It's a very common image shown on TV, the internet etc every freaking DAY.
d) WTF is wrong with you!?!?

Clickjacking threat punts Facebook survey scam
Business as usual
Facebook even as intended seems to be 90% dross anyway.
I've seem similar a while ago where I kept getting invites from friends to join a group titled something along the lines of "OMG I can't belive she did that to her daughter"
But to see the picture of what the whole group was meant to be about you had to "login" to some 3rd party site with your facebook details....yeah right....sadly a few idiots fell for it and unsuprisingly got hijacked.
Short passwords 'hopelessly inadequate', say boffins
"They suggest that some low-security sites (such as newspaper sites) insist on the use of passwords "primarily for psychological reasons ... as a justification for collecting marketing data and as a way to build trusted relationships with customers". ®"
While I understand that sentiment I imagine any online paper that allows comments or submissions also has a more practical reason, after all if you could simply post under anothers name (as with many blogs I read) you inevitably get some twazzock or another hi-jacking another posters name to troll.
Virgin Media to warn malware-infected customers
Nice idea a long time coming but...
Whilst I've been thinking for a long time why no one bothers trying to contact the infected users when we can see the IP's of the zombies I quickly realised that:
a) The people most likely to be infected will also not be using their ISP provided email account if they are even aware of it.
b) If it does pick up, queue mass malware spam campaings purporting to be from Virgin about malware =p
India threatens to ban 1m BlackBerrys
It may damage India...
IF Rim don't capitulate, but given this seems inevitable I wouldn't say so.
Police told terror ads too
terrifying offensive
Anything to do with the return of detections
With the police "Detections" returning I'm wondering if this is related.
Close my curtains/blinds so people walking down the high street can't see into my bedroom, and I'm a terrorist.
Leave them open and if I dare to get out of bed naked or have sex then as the public can see into my bedroom from the main road I'm guilty of multiple other offences...nice!, that will look great on plods detection sheet.
OMG I'm a terrorist!!
My flat overlooks a busy main street/road and has large windows so naturally we keep the blinds down most of the time as I get tired of drunk idiots from the pub next door trying to talk to us or having to sneak past my own windows when I get out the bathroom or bed in less than full attire.
As my wifes company has folded I'm also pertty permenantly overdrawn so simply draw all my cash needs out each pay day as my card inevitably gets locked quickly as our bills go out of just my wage putting me overdrawn and I need cash for petrol and food.
That makes me a terrorist apparently!
Extreme porn law on the ropes
Free Legal Aid
That's the problem with free legal aid.
When I got on a bus about a decade ago and asked for, and paid for an adult ticket, the driver pushed the wrong button and pinted a child ticket.
Long story short ended up in court over it!, I was told I was not entitled to free legal aid as I was employed and on consulting a solicitor was told don't bother plead guilty.
Got a 10 year criminal record (only just expired) and a £1,000 fine which for a boy of 17 having just got his first job (on a trial period) you can imagine that was crippling.
Almost lost my job over it as well as the criminal record technically meant I wasn't elligable for the job I was doing and wouldn't be allowed to carry on after the trial period.
Luckily my boss heard the details and I was informed that after he stopped laughing over it, informed me that the company (KPMG) has a very very large legal department that would have torn london transport AND the idiots that told me I was not entitled to free legal aid a new one had I of just asked....and gave me the job anyway.
Denied access to his Daughter
Are you kidding me? he was denied access to his own daughter througout all of this on such a blatantly STUPID case?
I hope he has serious grounds to sue the hell out of them and I don't normally advocate the Sue everyone culture but If I was sent a joke mail and then denied access to my girl for any period of time, especially this long, I'd be ready to rip off heads!
Boffins authenticate Apple 'Antennagate'
We got Iphone4's in to test
As users wanted to use their personal Iphones we got a 4 in to test to try and get ahead of the first "my Iphone4 doesn't work" calls and sure enough:
Holding it naturally in an open palm grip on my left hand goes from full bars 3G to 1 bar 3G reported, but a call to my voicemail got as far as "you have 3 new" before it dropped the call, the second call did the same, the 3rd didn't even connect.
I've been supporting blackberries and mobiles for 7 years now and never had calls dropped because you were holding a phone in a perfectly natural way (and it IS perfectly natural to hold the phone in a way that bridges the ariels despite what some people have been posting and this makes me glad I got one to test for myself).
Don't get me wrong the facetime + quality other than a pretty basic and fatal flaw is amazing, shame the one , sorry two, flaws (not detecting when you have it against your head) renders it not fit for purpose and anyone that complains to use their Iphone 4 keeps dropping off will be told sorry, return it for a refund nothing we can do about it.
Data for 100m Facebook accounts published to BitTorrent
I've set my facebook page up to open because I really couldn't care less if people see my name and who I'm friends with.
I use it to upload photos and share with family and friends mainly and have it open so friends of friends etc can also view them.
I don't post anything up there that I wouldn't be happy with the world+dog seeing so no security issues are ever going to bother me short of someone getting access to my account and sending friends/familly obscene emails or spam =p.
I register a SPAM email address, fake address, no phone number, no problem.

Panasonic to release another 10K employees
Summary: Japanese tech giant will undergo another round of job cuts as it works to cut costs and bring up profitability in many of its struggling business units.
Panasonic will look to cut another 10,000 workers by next March as it looks to cut costs and boost profitability in many of its ailing business units.
Reuters reported Wednesday the Japanese company, which is the country's biggest private sector employer, will lay off the workers between now and end of March 2013. This is done to trim costs and improve profitability at close to 100 business units--a fifth of which are losing money currently, said Hideaki Kawai, CFO at Panasonic.
This latest round of job cuts is expected to bolster group operating profit to at least 200 billion yen (US$2.52 billion) in the year starting next April, Kawai added. But it is unlikely to meet the target of a 5 percent operating profit margin within three years set by Panasonic's president Kazuhiro Tsuga, he noted.
The company had projected in October it will lose 765 billion yen (US$9.6 billion) by the end of its current financial year, despite forecasting a 50 billion yen (US$626 million) profit. It had already reduced its overall headcount by 36,000 in the past year alone, but retains over 330,000 employees across its global organization.

In his 100th-day press conference on April 29, President Barack Obama said that the State Secrets Privilege should be modified. He also indicated that he would push this year for procurement reform legislation and immigration reform, coupled with improved border security.
With regard to the State Secrets Privilege, President Obama said at the press conference, "There should be some additional tools so that it's not such a blunt instrument." He said that his administration was working on that "as we speak."
The State Secrets Privilege, which the Bush Administration reportedly used more than 20 times, has been controversial in its use as a way of preventing cases from being litigated, and there have been efforts to reform it.
The President also said unequivocally that he viewed waterboarding as torture, saying that whatever legal justifications were found, it was a mistake and that the question wasn't whether it yielded useful intelligence but rather whether that information could have been obtained in another way as well as whether the process made us safer in the end. He said that keeping the country safe while staying true to "who we are" was the goal.

PERFORMED BY BALALLY PLAYERS. Noel Coward's Present Laughter. A smart witty romp through a farcical few days in the life of a celebrity Join preening matinée idol Garry Essendine in his luxury penthouse, feel his horror at turning 40, and see him try to cope with a succession of friends, fans or hangers-on arriving in his London home. Watch them try to seduce him, serve him, berate him or befriend him as they whirl in and out of his flat or hide in adjoining rooms. No wonder he can't wait to escape on his tour of Africa! Despite his behavioural shortcomings, Garry is fun to be with; the kind of person who could brighten up even the dullest day with his outrageous theatrical speeches, or his cutting witty remarks. A whirlwind of head-wrecking visitors—the predatory mistress, a wanna-be actress, a star-struck playwright—vie with his cynical secretary, his controlling ex-wife, his business partner double-act, even the Swedish maid— to be the first to drive Garry demented!
Call in to the Box Office at Mill Theatre Dundrum. We're open from Monday to Saturday, 12.30pm-5.30pm. Open 1 hour prior to all performances. Or ring us on 01 296 9340.

If I could only own one skincare product, this would definitely be it.
I have very dry skin that's prone to flaking, especially during the winter, and no other moisturizer I've ever tried has worked nearly as well as this one (and I have tried many). It's solid in the tub, but it becomes much more smooth and creamy as it's warmed on the skin, and you don't need much at all. It's very long-lasting and thick, so I use a bit more in the evenings after washing my face, and in the mornings, I leave it on for about 5 minutes before using a damp washcloth to wipe off the excess, so my skin isn't as shiny. I've found that it works best when the skin is wet or damp. It's also good for softening very dry skin on the elbows, heels, etc.
Concerning the price: A 7 oz. tub can be found online for approximately $6-10, and I bought mine from a health food store for $9. A few reviewers reported the price to be steep, but perhaps only if you go through it more quickly by using large amounts as a hair moisturizer, and/or as an all-over body moisturizer. I use mine primarily on my face (and only occasionally on my elbows or legs, if need be), and a tub lasts me around a year, making it well worth the price.

This is a great natural skin cream. I bought this (for ~ $15) to use in my own sunscreen formulation. It didn't cause me to break out at all (to my surprise), but does leave your skin shiny. You only need a small amount to cover your whole face (a pea sized amount?). I'm not sure if i'll repurchase it though, just because of the price.
Honestly my favourite thing on earth. I used Vaseline brand Cocoa and Shea lotion for quite some time as an everyday lotion and that was ok. I had a weird instance if cuts that would just open up on my shins for quite some time and Hemp&Co. unscented hemp oil helped that a lot. But nothing has been as amazing for my body as plain ole shea butter. I've made it into a body butter by melting it down and adding almond oil to it (75% shea to 25% oil ratio) and it worked great like that, especially nice when adding a few drops of rose oil to it. I like using it on its own better. I scoop a little out and fill and empty tin with the scrapings. I find this helps soften it better and makes it easier to access. The smell isn't terrible either. More nutty than sour milk scented like shea butter usually is. I think its the way it was extracted. I personally love the stuff. It isn't comedogenic whereas cocoa butter is. I've noticed small pimples under the skin on the back of my thigh disappearing after using this for about a month. Will buy again, despite the steep price. It's just a great body cream, you only need to use it sparingly, gives the softest skin, and has helped heal my legs.

Love this stuff! I like that I can 'customize' it, I often mix a tiny dab with regular moisturizer, use it full strength on lips and feet, tiny amount in hand lotion.
Mine is not gritty at all, and it emulsifies in seconds. At night, I put on my regular products and then seal everything in by using the tiniest possible amount (just enough to make palms shiny) and pressing it in to my face to 'seal' in the other products.
I am addicted to this particular Shea Butter - it is realy wonderful. I use it as body massage oil, also as addition to face masks, and as leave on product for hair. It works wonders on curly hair :). It is absolutely comparable with the most expensive brands I have used. And I am buying it cheap from www.iherb.com (you can use coupon code TOV126 for $10 discount).
Wonderful, fair trade Shea butter for a great price! You can usually get this on sale for 5.99! Great for dry skin and winter time;)
I had been using Perfect Organics unscented shea butter, which I really liked, but I was running out and couldn't find any more. I don't like to use unrefined shea butter because I don't like the smell and it irritates my skin (I think one of the things that gets refined out is one of the things that bothers my skin). I picked up Now brand, and I've been happy with it. I haven't experienced the grittiness that other reviewers have; in fact, my tub has been the smoothest, easiest to apply shea butter I've used. It seems to sink in more slowly than Perfect Organics, and I can't use it all the time or on areas that can break out like my chest and back, but it is fantastic on dry skin, legs after shaving, and eczema patches.
This is one of the most essential products I have in my beauty cabinet. I use it as a lip balm, on my elbows and knees, and on my hands as an overnight moisturiser. It is greasy upon application, so it is brilliant as a lip balm, but once it sinks in it leaves skin silky smooth. I buy this from iHerb (use code NIV336 to get $5 off your first order).
Depending on the weather, when it reaches me it's either soft and Vaseline-like, or hard, gritty and sandy. To fix the latter problem, I microwave it till it's melted, stir briskly, and then cool quickly in the freezer, which restores its smooth consistency. In hot summers, it becomes very soft, and in winter it hardens quite a lot, so you need to scoop it out and warm it between your hands before applying.
Bottom line: Excellent value for money, a multi-tasker that everyone should have! Particularly recommended as a lip balm and heavy-duty hand treatment. (Also, it's the main ingredient in Jack Black lip balm, a tube of which costs as much as a tub of this!)
I wish I could give this product zero lippies!! I hated it. The texture of it was TERRIBLE! It was soo gritty, it was like rubbing sand into my skin. I did try to heat it to make it more spreadable but it was still gritty and it took forever to absorb into my skin. This was my first try with a refined shea butter and it will be my last. I am going back to unrefined shea butter.
I bought this because I wanted to use shea butter on my legs and feet and hands. I have used Alaffia's handcrafted shea butter...on my face and hands, and I love it! So I wanted a larger jar...Now solutions brand comes in a 7oz. tub. It is pure white as opposed to greyish beige, like most shea I have seen. That leads me to think that this is refined shea butter. This melts deferently in your hands , melts into a thick dull-ish lotion.(other shea butters I've used melt to an oil)...it's very moisturizing and truly lasts...creates a thin film , but is not greasy. To me , it's kind of like Nivea cream (in the blue tub) without the scent and lasts even longer than Nivea. Great barrier cream for lips and hands, even the ends of your hair! (used sparingly) I love this on rough heels , it lasts a long time on that rough calloused skin. I found that even after washing my hands , it's still there a little bit. I love that there is no fragrance , too.Also a tiny bit goes a very long way!

"It doesn't take more than a few phones to make a transformative difference in an area. We're seeing small businesses develop by virtue of people having phones, being able to find clients, make purchases, get supplies. There's e-banking or mobile banking, which has been pioneered in a few places, like Kenya, but I think it's just going to spread dramatically now. And more and more we're seeing new services added to the cell phones, and especially as we move from 2G to 3G [second- to third-generation] mobile standards I think we're going to see an incredible burst of new uses of the phones."
Jeffrey Sachs, the director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University and special adviser to the United Nations Secretary-General on the Millennium Development Goals, was interviewed on allAfrica on how mobile devices could potentially revolutionize how development assistance works.

As many of you know, in the past I've done a series of posts deconstructing the S-1s of VC-backed internet startups going public. A few years ago this was sort of a novelty… not that many startups were going public and not that many bloggers or mainstream journalists took the time or had familiarity with combing these SEC filings. But now there's a lot of info reported and a number of good, thorough analyses of S-1s as we enjoy a quiet but very real "boom" in the tech economy.
Twitter's IPO has garnered a ton of attention in the tech and popular press. So their revenue figures, pre IPO financing and ownership, and other info is all widely available. I thought I'd provide a little analysis of Twitter based on their S-1, but also strive to put it in a broader context of other consumer internet businesses and where we are in the current tech cycle.
Three Ways to Make Money On the Consumer Internet
I authored a post seven years ago (geez… time flies!) on the three ways to make money on the consumer internet. The emergence of mobile platforms has broadened the array of internet-enabled businesses somewhat, and overall it obviously marks a massive shift in computing platforms. But at its base level, ubiquitous computing or "mobile" hasn't actually changed that much from the desktop web when it comes to fundamental business models.
Again there's three fundamental ways to make money in consumer-facing internet businesses: you can sell people stuff in a physical realm (e-commerce), you can indirectly monetize consumer attention (media or ad-based), or you can provide online software & services that consumers pay for (premium services). There's different flavors or derivations of these… e-tailers and marketplaces are both e-commerce businesses but differ in operational model, growth patterns, and profit margins. Games monetized via in-app purchases are a premium service. But at the end of the day I'm a simple guy and subscribe to Occam's razor… all else being equal, the simpler explanation of something is generally better.
Twitter Is A Media Business
Despite it's long-standing protestations, Twitter is indeed a media company. If this were a math class, I'd just say the proof is evident but if you want some data on Twitter's 2013 YTD revenue here you go.
So Twitter is a media business given nearly 90% of their revenue is advertising and the company expects "data licensing revenue to decrease as a percentage of our total revenue over time". Facebook is a media business. In an unconventional way, Google is also media business, though their consumer "attention" is intent-based rather than time-based. TripAdvisor and Yelp don't get as much hype as Twitter or Facebook, but they too have built very large audience/media businesses.
If Pinterest and SnapChat turn out to be big businesses, they'll be media-based businesses. That's why some smart investors believe they're worth $3-4B each despite being pre-revenue. Instagram hadn't built a true business (e.g. revenues –> profits –> cash flows) yet when they were acquired, but they had built a very successful product with great potential to build a business.
Value of Media vs E-Commerce vs Premium Services
Tomorrow we'll know Twitter's market cap definitively, at least near term. Since they upped their IPO pricing range to $23-25/share the offering will imply a market cap of $12-14B, but where it will stand after the first day of trading is anyone's guess and most of the guesses are $15-20B+.
Why are media businesses so valuable? Well it's not clear that media businesses, in aggregate, are inherently more valuable than e-commerce or premium services companies in aggregate [see Note 1 below regarding categorization]. In the consumer realm, there are more e-commerce companies that will go public this year than media-based startups. For e-commerce you have RetailMeNot (not a traditional e-tailer but still e-commerce nonetheless), Zulilly (great analysis here by Greg Bettinelli), and of course Alibaba on the horizon. There are also a bunch of other e-commerce companies which may have the potential to go public in the not too distant future like Wayfair, Fab, One Kings Lane, and others. But with the exception of Alibaba none of these will businesses worth $10B+ (I plan to do a detailed analysis of Alibaba when they file).
There haven't been any consumer internet companies with premium service business model to go public in 2013 here. The last one to do so was arguably Zynga, as gaming is a category consumers have clear willingness to pay for, and Supercell had an M&A exit which valued the whole company at around $3B. But there are several premium services business waiting in the wings with potential to be standalone public companies like Dropbox, Evernote, Spotify, and others. And of course Netflix has been public for years but has enjoyed stupendous momentum as a public company in the past 12-18 months.
So there's arguably more e-commerce and premium services companies that have gone public in the last 1-2 years than media/audience businesses. But with media-based businesses, the distribution of outcomes is markedly different in part because the value capture by new disruptive startups is different. Google, Facebook, and Twitter have each created a new audience-based paradigm and thus have created and dominated a new segment of advertising. Prior generations of media companies typically get little or no share of the new ad markets that are created, meaning the lion's share of value flows to these new innovative platforms making them exceedingly valuable businesses.
While there are many new standalone companies that are built in the e-commerce and digital premium services segments, a lot of value is also captured by legacy players in each category. Amazon dominates e-commerce, but Nordstrom, Wal-Mart, et al have non-trivial e-commerce businesses of their own. Similarly for every Supercell and Zynga, there's also big mobile gaming franchises built by legacy publishers like EA.
Growth IPOs Are Back
One other way to put Twitter's IPO, and other consumer & B2B IPOs recently, in context is the broader macroeconomy and investing environment. A couple things factor into this.
1) Skepticism of Startup IPOs is Behind Us – A few years ago there was exceptional dubiousness of new technology companies, which along with the tech crash of '01-02 and recession of '08-09 strongly contributed to the IPO drought from 2003-2010. Yes there've been high profile missteps for Facebook's IPO and companies which have underwhelmed like Zynga and Groupon. But the broad success of both consumer and business facing companies new to the public has meant the prevailing bias against tech IPOs has been replaced with a healthy balance between enthusiasm and skepticism. Investors can debate valuation, but it's patently obvious that Facebook, LinkedIn, Workday, TripAdvisor, and many other startup IPOs of the last 1-2 years are great businesses.
2) Growth is Prized – We live in an unusual time where the confluence of near zero yields, QE, underlying technology innovation, low macro growth, and worldwide demographic shifts have produced an environment where growth potential is especially prized by equity investors. The tables below show year over year growth rates based on last quarter's reported results followed by stock price over the last 12 months for a group of companies all of which have seen 100%+ rises in share price. To be fair the broad equity markets are up strongly over this time period, but clearly growth has been strongly favored. And for what it's worth, a lack of growth or the departure of former growth has been penalized by the market as well (just look at Zynga).
So viewed through this lens, it's pretty clear why Twitter will be valued highly tomorrow… it's a media-based success in an environment ripe for high growth consumer internet businesses. I wish all of those involved with Twitter very well.
Note 1: Most consumer internet businesses can be put into one of the three buckets pretty easily. LinkedIn is a little unusual in that it's essentially a B2B SaaS business, a consumer premium services business, and a media business all wrapped together. One could argue Groupon is a "media" business in that they "sell" the attention of their consumers to small businesses, but I think of Groupon really more like an e-commerce business… they directly facilitate transactions and their gross margins work like a commerce rather than a media company.
I believe we're going to look back in 2-5 years and realize that we've been in a once a decade boom for internet & software startups.
It doesn't feel much like a boom actually. The macroeconomy has been stuck in a tepid recovery in the US, a period of decelerating growth in emerging markets, and a double dip recession in much of Europe. In the tech sphere, a good bit of air was let out of the tires when the hype around some consumer-facing internet companies proved transitory. Remember when Groupon and Zynga were each going to be worth $20-30B? Facebook's IPO was obviously a debacle, and in the private investment sphere valuations from the seed through late stage have declined for the most part from their peaks in late 2011 through early 2012. And of course the US government is shutting down today…
But if you look past all the reasons why it doesn't feel like a boom, you start to see some compelling evidence:
- Ubiquitous Computing (aka Mobile) Surge is in Full Swing - Again at NextView we think of this computing platform wave as ubiquitous computing rather than simply "mobile". But we're now 5+ years into the hardware cycle for smartphones and 3 years into the cycle for tablets. Software revenue trails hardware slightly and ad revenue always takes a couple years to shift, but even here the results are astounding. Facebook will do $7-8B in revenue this year, essentially none was from mobile ads last year and now >40% of their ad revenue is from mobile ads.
- Cloud Computing Strength Accelerates - "Cloud" gets thrown around as much as mobile without really parsing the underlying trends. At the application layer you have a massive shift of on-prem software going SaaS, a trend started over a decade ago with Salesforce but accelerating dramatically in recent years across nearly every software category (HR – Workday, Marketing – Eloqua, Marketo, Marin Software, ExactTarget, Engineering/IT – Rally Software, ServiceNow). At the infrastructure level companies are creating all stuff which will power cloud-based applications and services and keep them secure.
- IPO Market Is Strong - All the companies I just mentioned in cloud computing have gone public within the last 12 months. In September 2013 alone there were 6 tech IPOs (FireEye, Ring Central, Violin Memory, Applied Optoelectronics, Benefitfocus, and Covisint). The last two weren't traditional VC backed startups, but rather growth equity and a corporate spin out, but nonetheless innovative tech companies are clearly being welcomed by the public markets again. And of course Twitter filed confidentially for their IPO in September.
- IPO Market Is Rational - I say now is a boom and not a bubble, because crucially all of these are rational businesses with significant revenue (typically $100M+ annualized, if not substantially more), strong growth rates, and profitability or at least a clear path to it. This is not '98-99 when pre-revenue companies were IPO'ing. And as I've mentioned valuations in the private investment sphere have largely rationalized in the last 12-18 months.
- More Ways Than Ever to Raise Startup Capital - Plenty has been written about AngelList's new funding & model (good summary here), as well as crowdfunding more broadly. But it's clear that the capital needed to launch a software-based business has never been lower, and there's more ways than ever to obtain that capital.
This boom will play out over a longer time frame, and perhaps a little slower than the '95-00 boom & bubble cycle. Maybe the current boom started 12 months ago or 18 months ago but we're still pretty early in. I'm not a Pollyanna either… the business cycle hasn't been eliminated and the process of creative destruction means for every startup that becomes a big business, many more will die and some existing giants will wither.
But in my mind there's little doubt we're in a tech boom, and just as the last boom didn't feel self-evident until '98 or '99 I suspect this one may not until 2015 or 2016. The US government last shut down in 1995 and 1996. It's purely a co-incidence of course but in '95 Netscape went public, regarded by many as the seminal moment of the last tech boom, and in '96 Yahoo went public followed by Amazon in '97 and eBay in '98. So don't lose sight of the tech boom that's underway now amid all the rest of the news…
We all woke up to the news that Microsoft is buying Nokia for ~$7B (ok, not the carrier infrastructure biz but the main part of Nokia that anybody cares about). This isn't totally out of left field since they've had a close partnership for a year, but I tweeted my reaction:
"Microsoft buying Nokia core phone business strikes me as 0.5 + 0.5 = 0.6"
What Microsoft needs is a near death experience so that they can reinvent themselves as an enterprise cloud company. Big tech has long had a history of phoenixes rising from the ashes… think near death of Apple which in the long run came to dominate mobile computing, or IBM which went from a dying "Big Blue" to todays "THINK" which dominates tech services and much server-side computing. And there are plenty of non-tech companies whose near death experiences catalyzed remarkable transformations (Ford under Alan Mulally, Continental Airlines under Gordon Bethune, et al).
In the late '90s Microsoft was the world's most valuable company and dominated virtually every category of software that mattered, and even some that didn't matter that much (e.g. browsers). To be fair to Microsoft they've done some laudable things in the past decade like creating a respectable (still distant #2) search company in Bing, being both dominant and innovative in console gaming (Kinnect, Xbox Live, etc), and acquiring some interesting companies (Skype, Yammer). And Microsoft's Azure strategy has given it a strong position in public and private cloud computing.
But the company has fundamentally been playing catch up for most of the Ballmer era, and arguably has done a mediocre job of it. While I'm sure Hollywood would love a story like "Bill Gates returns to Microsoft and makes it into a radical innovator", that's simply not going to happen. And the reality is that Microsoft isn't exactly near death, with healthy profits and cash-flow from Windows, Office, and cloud services. MSFT has more billion dollar software franchises than you can shake a stick at (Dynamics in SMB CRM, Sharepoint, etc).
As interesting as Bing, Xbox, Skype, and other consumer services may be they don't make much money. And the consumer hardware businesses (Surface, Windows phone) have flopped big time. Doubling down on consumer hardware with Nokia seems like a terrible idea to me… MSFT will continue to struggle in these categories and not make much money in them. It would probably take a near-death experience for Microsoft to realize that being awesome in something is better than being mediocre in everything. The path to being awesome in something would look roughly like this.
1) Hire transformative CEO to replace Ballmer. This seems like a no-brainer but Ballmer and the MSFT board might lean towards a less risky path. Names like Stephen Elop of Nokia, John Donahue of eBay, and internal candidates (Satya Nadella, Steven Sinofsky, et al) are mentioned. Microsoft is an enormous ship and reinventing the company would be non-trivial for anyone, so I don't think the choice is an obvious one. Remember Lou Gerstner ran American Express before taking the helm at IBM in 1993. But all the other phoenix-risen stories above are intrinsically linked to a strong leader willing not only to take the riskier strategic path but also willing to persuade and cajole a large organization that path was necessary.
2) Divest the consumer facing businesses in mobile hardware, gaming, and online services. Xbox could probably be a pretty good standalone business but MSFT will never be a leader in phones, tablets, or search. Microsoft doesn't need the cash… despite limited growth and paying a substantial dividend, MSFT still generates good cashflow and has >$70B on it's balance sheet. But the company does need to become more focused in its strategy, operations, and personnel.
3) Triple down on cloud infrastructure & services with Azure and acquisitions. At the 90,000 foot level platforms matter if you want to be in the end-user device business. But the next 10+ years of computing can be roughly described as cloud + pipes + device platforms. Apple, Google, and Samsung are winning in the latter but Microsoft can dominate the former as a software and service "platform" for enterprises and infrastructure providers.
And I specifically mean cloud infrastructure rather than the application layer. It would be silly for Microsoft to buy a bunch of SaaS companies to compete against Oracle and SAP. Microsoft already has a dominant position from server OS to private/public cloud services so they should build on that that organically and through acquisition. Want names? Small ball would be acquisitions of companies which help manage and power cloud applications and there's lots to choose from here: stodgy old guys like BMC to recently public ServiceNow or Splunk to privately held startups (MongoDB, et al). The transformative play would be for VMWare, which would probably require buying EMC at the same time (divest the storage hardware but keep storage software, RSA, etc). A bunch of people smarter than me about enterprise cloud could probably gin up even more names than I did in thinking about this for 60 seconds.
FWIW, I don't predict this will happen. I think Microsoft will continue to lead in a few areas but muddle along in so many more. I suspect they'll pick a smart and competent replacement for Ballmer, but not one who will transform by shrinking then re-focusing and growing again as an enterprise cloud world-beater. I'm rooting for Microsoft and you never know…
I was having breakfast this morning from someone I know from the LP world. We were talking about what's "working" in the broader VC ecosystem and this person expressed their enthusiasm that today there are a range of different models that are producing attractive returns for LPs.
Historically there was just one model… VCs had to invest in the Series A or B round of a startup, own 20%+ of the company, and be one of the primary capital supporters of it through exit. That model still works for quite a few firms, but now there are also some different models producing attractive returns. One example is seed/micro VCs who own far less than 20% (often <10%) of companies but are typically investing at the earliest stages and out of smaller funds, both of which can produce superior returns on a cash on cash multiple if done well.
There's also select late stage VC investors, either as a dedicated late stage fund or as part of a broadly diversified large fund, again who often own far less than 10% of the companies they invest in but where they can still produce good multiples in shorter time frame again if executed well. Neither of these models is brand new, but they have emerged more distinctly in the last 5-7 years meaning there's now realized returns to support the attractiveness of these seed or late-stage models in addition to the "traditional" own 20% early stage model.
But while there's multiple models working in the VC ecosystem, it remains acutely true that there is no subprime model for VC. I'm fond of saying this phrase though I must give credit to Peter Thiel who coined it back in the early PayPal days 10+ years ago. The point is that unlike various consumer credit markets where subprime lending does indeed work, trying to apply a comparable model to VC is typically disastrous because startup outcomes follow a power-law distribution rather than a normal distribution.
In consumer credit (credit cards, mortgages, car loans, etc) a subprime approach works. You could argue some forms of subprime consumer credit are predatory or usurious in nature (e.g. payday lending). But while lending to borrowers who are less desirable (from a creditworthiness and ability to repay standpoint) will result in greater loan losses than lending to "prime" customers, as long as you price this credit accordingly (higher interest rates, fees, etc) and do a good job underwriting and managing the portfolio it can be a rather profitable enterprise. There are both specialty lenders and large banks that have built big, successful businesses in subprime lending. [see Note 1 below re: subprime crisis of 2008-9]
So why doesn't the same model work in VC? The subprime analogy for venture would be to invest in the somewhat less desirable startups (in terms of team, mkt oppty, product, etc) but to price one's investment capital appropriately. Put plainly, the subprime model of VC would be to invest in the mediocre startups at a low valuation. Or to focus solely on getting the lowest valuation as an investor, which by definition will price you out of the most desirable companies which typically have substantial demand for their equity. Or to invest in mediocre startups at a low valuation but hope to "manage" this portfolio to better than expected outcomes.
In theory this would work if the ok, not great startups had good, not great positive outcomes. But we all know that is in fact false… the power law distribution holds. The great startups produce 10X+ returns for their VC investors, the mediocre ones struggle to return capital or minimize losses. Even if you get a super low valuation, investing in a company that raises $20M in VC capital and sells for around that much doesn't produce a good return. That's what the middle of the startup outcome distribution tends to look like.
So if there is no subprime model for VC, is the corollary that valuation doesn't matter or as some have said there are only 5-10 startups per year that "matter"? Well in a way investing in the best companies is in fact more important than valuation, though valuation still matters in certain respects as I've discussed before. And the answer to the second corollary in fact depends on the definition of what "matters".
I can't speak for Marc Andreessen but I suspect when he said only 5-10 startups a year matter, he was looking at it through the lens of a very large "platform" VC fund like AH or others that are several billion dollars in size. Indeed for groups like these to produce a good fund level return, they by definition must be investing in the companies that are ultimately worth $5-10B or more in enterprise value and there are only perhaps 5-10 of those per year (maybe less). But for a traditional early-stage VC with a $200-300M fund a single exit of $500M-1B really "matters" in terms of returning a huge portion of the fund. For a seed VC fund it might be even smaller depending on size and strategy. So "matters" is relative and while there aren't hundreds of startup outcomes per year that "matter" there are probably many dozens. But there still is no subprime model that works in venture…
Note 1: Readers may feel that the subprime mortgage collapse which led to the financial crisis of 2008-2009 implies that subprime lending does not indeed work. The subprime mortgage collapse had many interrelated factors at work – easy monetary policy, lax underwriting standards, misleading credit ratings, fraud (at all levels from consumer to originators to securitization), uninformed investors buying MBSs & CDOs – all of which became self-reinforcing in a vicious cycle to inflate a credit bubble. This produced an obviously bad outcome. But the fundamental premise of subprime lending (lend to the less creditworthy but demanding higher interest rates to compensate for defaults) remains sound and is working today, just as the bursting of the Dutch tulip bubble doesn't mean that tulips are valueless.
I've been doing some thinking about the future of cars and the impact of the internet. A large part of this is just some idle thoughts, a small part is driven by my love of cars, and a small part is thinking about what potential opportunities for innovation & investment might stem from this. I started jotting this down about a month ago but Google's acquisition of Waze was a good prompt to finish off this post.
When people talk about "internet" and "cars" people usually think of internet-connected automobiles for the purposes of infotainment. Connected cars arguably started with GM's launch of the OnStar telematics service in the mid-late '90s, though in essence this remains a private network which was originally run over analog cellular and satellites rather than open internet. Today you can buy an Audi or a Dodge Ram pickup with a wifi hotspot (connected via mobile broadband) and you'll see similar capabilities from other manufacturers in the next 1-2 years. Internet & software giants like Google (Google Maps now powers Audi nav systems) and Microsoft (Sync infotainment created in conjunction with Ford) have been hard at work to remain at the leading edge of innovation here.
But to me infotainment is really just a small part of the internet connected car story. We've had internet in our cars since the rise of smartphones, and arguably it's been as much a safety hazard (distracted driving while texting, emailing, etc) as a positive transformation (navigation, music, etc). And outside the confines of the chassis, the internet has had more of an impact on the car industry from the basic (internet research is the most influential component of car buying today) to the transformative (ZipCar, Uber, etc).
So what will ubiquitous connected computing mean for the 100+ year old automobile? My thoughts here are still at the 60,000ft, macro-economic level and not at the micro startup opportunity level but here are a few.
Diagnostics & Maintenance – The computerization of cars is several decades old at this point and was driven by a multitude of factors, mainly safety and environmental concerns (reduced emissions from electronic control of combustion). With chips running large parts of cars came basic diagnostic tools like the "check engine" light to OBD ports. This has led to a broad transition away from many consumers doing their own maintenance and repair work to few doing it. With internet connectivity integrated by the OEMs, you're going to see real-time monitoring and diagnostics which should favor franchise dealers or factory-owned service centers (e.g. Tesla) even more for repair work. The independent shop won't go away just as do-it-yourself repair didn't disappear with electronic fuel injection, but franchise dealers & factory service centers will take an increasing share of the maintenance market.
Driverless Cars Change Definition of Car "Owners" – We've all heard of or seen Google's driverless cars and forward-thinking manufacturers are already planning for this day whether it's 5 or 20 years in the future. And to be fair ubiquitous connected computing is but one of the enabling technologies for driverless cars (computer vision, AI, etc). But in a world of driverless cars, the notion of who "owns" or can "drive" an automobile can change dramatically. I don't just mean that people are going to share cars, though that will undoubtedly be true in densely populated areas.
Driverless cars could actually increase the number of cars on the road, both because the safe density of cars on the road can be increased, but also because of expanding the universe of drivers and societal preferences. In a world where a human isn't the primary operator, you will have more visually impaired or physically handicapped persons driving themselves or more elderly persons or even children. A 9 year old could hop in a driverless car and drive themselves to school for example. Also if driving wasn't time-consuming or stressful (e.g. you could read, work, play, etc in your car w/o needing to pay attention to the road), some people might choose to live further away from their work even if there weren't good mass transit options available to them. The average American's daily commute is just under an hour (round trip), so in aggregate that's potentially a lot of incremental time when they might be doing email, web surfing, playing games, or communicating with friends. And commuting 2+hrs daily is less of a big deal if you can use that time for work or leisure.
Cars as a Utility – As someone who's passionate about driving and cars, this is a potential trend that saddens me a little but seems inevitable nonetheless. The more connected our automobiles become and the more detached we are from the physical act of operating them, the more cars will become a utility for most people. People will still race cars (just as they still race horses), and a small number of people will dedicate time and resources to owning and caring for cars (just as they still do for horses).
But when internet connected computers control much of the operation and maintenance of vehicles, my hunch is that people in general and younger generations in particular will view cars as a utility rather than as a pursuit in and of themselves. The thrill engendered by aesthetics, performance, or luxury will probably be muted except for a hardcore passionate few. People will seek these in other consumer goods and cars may become less differentiated. In the 50's and 60's, a drivers license and car ownership were the central focus of most teenagers. Teenagers today, and certainly the ones coming of age in decades to come, probably won't place similar emphasis.
Cars as a Media Platform – Again I think infotainment is only the tip of the spear but cars have been a media platform for many decades, since the advent of AM radios. Internet connectivity is turning them into a more individualized and more comprehensive kind of media platform. Radio as we know it won't die, but audio services that are personalized and on-demand will proliferate in the near term (like Spotify now working with Ford Sync) which will mean targeting more like web/mobile ads. And longer term streaming video, games, and other media will become a bigger part of the auto platform both near term for traditional "passengers" and longer-term with autonomous cars. People will of course still whip out their smartphones and tablets in the car, but I anticipate manufacturers will find better ways to integrate connected media like cached storage via your work/home wifi connection or Slingbox type functionality with your home DVR.
The car is over a century old and how it's propelled, who drives it, and other key aspects will change here in the 21st century. As a result younger generations' attitudes about cars and personal identity are already changing. But autos will remain incredibly important in the internet age which is something you can only say about a handful of other transformative technologies from centuries past.
