problem with this idea is if you're unlucky the first 'booking' you get turns out to be a serial killer out on licence and you just sent him to stay with that nice young lady in south ken with the spare room!

seems like fb thrives on negative publicity
all the bad stuff that has come out of fb and bad deeds happening to people seems just to have helped them and zuckenbergs bank balance

not sure every site can survice that sort of negative pr


i think theres some ideas to be taken from it though that can work

Hence the now gaurantee upto $1 million I believe with airbnb

Groupon/airbnb are both disruptive companies....that why they are so interesting because they are changing the way people think. Hence the huge valuations. It's a bet but both of those industries will never be the same and someone will be a dominant player, the investors are betting that Groupon/Airbnb hold the dominat position now and will continue to do so.

There are lots of companies that have crashed and burnt, but there are many who were disruptive, were valued at stupid valuations and now are mainstream.

Not long ago people were valueing Google and Facebook at a billion and saying tehy were daft value.
