Can Symbiostock ever be bought out?
VB inc:
I've been following these threads closely with the intention of creating my own symbio site once other priorities are out of the way (i started a screen printing venture for one. I'm in nyc so if anyone needs screen printing services =) pm me...).
Lets say this really takes off and the agencies really take notice on its success. Is there a possibility of a company like GETTY swooping in and killing this thing by outright buying it off??? I'm not familiar with the "open source" project of this sort.
sc:
No we all own our own sites.
cascoly:
there's no one to buy it from! open source means just that - the entire source code is publicly available. someone could make & market a derivative, but they'd need to build their own network
daveh900:
I'm willing to sell. ;)
DonLand:
Devil's advocate here....
What if G---y said offered ridiculous $$$ for www.symbiostock.com, www.symbiostock.info and www.symbiostock.net websites?
What if they offered Leo ridiculous $$$ for the site and code and sent out an update that broke the network?
Just saying... ???
