maybe that's it. the local demand for software is pretty low compared to
overseas'. and with regards to web apps, local consumers tend to embrace
global brands and there's nothing new about it. i think success rate is much
higher if you launch your product elsewhere or if you cater to OFWs
worldwide (i.e. Chikka, Inquirer.net, {how about TFC webcast?}, etc.).Other countries are also exporting software (i.e. Israel, India, China) and Yahoo is acquiring startups that strongly dominates the local market. perhaps someone would like to give it a try :-) On Wed, May 7, 2008 at 12:41 AM, Miguel Paraz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [...] Yup they are Pinoy/Pinay... but to my knowledge, only Vea got rich in > the Philippines. > The rest did it in the US. > I thought Gurango's story was fully based in the Philippines, but I > found this story: > http://www.teamasia.com/Media/2002/pn10292002.htm >
