It’s like a rich kid in high school who discovered he wasn’t invited to a party, so he threw a better party and no one came.
Facebook’s edge over Google:
- data on which Google is built ( web sites all over the World) is available to Facebook and to anyone able to build a spider.
- data available to Facebook is locked.
Google’s edge over Facebook:
- much better technology
- much better mobile strategy
- much richer
- ads based on what you are searching for are much better than ads based on who you are. (more…)

transparent kayak
Two weeks after buying airplane tickets and hotel, I found those two websites that could have saved me more than $1000 on my reservation, by automatically comparing hundred of prices in seconds:
- http://www.trivago.com gets the best deal for my hotel reservation
- http://www.kayak.com gets the best deal for any flight
What are “top line” and “bottom line” for companies and stocks? April 27, 2012

What do bottom-line and top-line mean for stocks and companies?
The answer is simple: “TOP-LINE” means REVENUES and “BOTTOM-LINE” means EARNINGS: this graph below is a good and clear example:
Top line shows revenue and bottom line shows earningns for EBIX
The graph also helps me to understand why Revenue is called TOP LINE and Earnings BOTTOM LINE:
Since Earnings = Revenue – Expenses, then Earnings are smaller (less dollars) than Revenues. On a graph showing dollars over time, Revenues will always be the top line and Earnings the bottom line.

- Samsung is Apple’s only serious competitor
I bought 8 SSU (Samsung) shares at EUR 194,95 each. I did that because:
- I am buying a Samsung TV.
- The big spenders I know are either buying Samsung or Apple smartphones
- Samsung invests hugely in Research and developement
- Samsung stock is fairly priced

I don’t care if Google was kicked out of China. Google still is a fast growing company, which is doing great now and which will do terrific if companies get back on advertising spending as the economy picks up.
Google is growing Revenue up 23% year on year, Earnings up 37%, has 26B cash, about 15% of its market cap.
