guys
the c, b, were O/T, sorry. there was no a, and nothing was deleted.

oh, so is norbus' mention of "c" and "b" is a referral to points made in previous post...what were they?

a surprise would be good smithy...however, we will ultimately need news to sustain any significant movement...as u will see, all historical movement on little or no news has resulted in a spike...

Norbus you quote points (a), (b) and (c), and yet none are in your earlier discussion?
Did some of your post get deleted?

In the first instance, It will not be what they achieve that determines share price but what they are seen to do. V cannot be seen as a small time merchant. BGT will therefore spend big and the share price will trend with that.

You know I am a believer now; only sorry I did not get more but I can fix that. One thing I can reassure you about is that Vickram will not allow funding in future to be that cheap.

I do not agree with your model now that Vickram is in. I reckon he will get the company to accelerate their marketing and development spend, beyond British hand to mouth prudent spend. I expect he will already have approved a Go Go daring plan given removal of the funding limiting factor.

That will mean an share price that will reflect this potential(with serious risk attaching) , 12/15p. with market cap at $50m+ Company can raise $10m with little material dilution . If the company comes through this level, , It could be perceived as the potentially more valuable of the top 2 companies..... for others i say dyor as this is a fanciful scenario..

I think C... has had its run for now and B.... needs much more study though it is in the right sector.

Another nice articles from Alex over on the SocialGO blog - discussing the future for SocialGO in 2010:



"SocialGO in 2010
Sat, Jan 16, 2010Press
A very happy new year to the whole SocialGO family! We have kicked 2010 off to a fantastic start and the whole team are very excited about the year ahead.
First of all, we are delighted to announce that Vikrant Bhargava has joined our board of directors. Vikrant is one of the world's most successful internet entrepreneurs and will be playing an important role helping to define our strategy going forward. We are really excited about working with him to grow SocialGO in the months to come. As Monday's press release put it:
Bhargava, who brings a wealth of expertise in internet-related industries to SocialGO, co-founded PartyGaming plc and is largely credited with taking that company from start-up in 2001 to nearly $1B in revenue by 2006.
Secondly, myself and Steve Hardman who founded SocialGO with Dominic Wheatley in 2007 will be joining the board as joint Managing Directors.
The SocialGO team is also growing with the addition of two new developers. Mark Hamlin and Chris Beck have joined us as work continues on Version 2 of SocialGO. Version 2 will be a completely new code-base to power our networks bringing a combination of new features, improved speed and greater customization. It is still in its early stages of development but we are really excited about what it will mean for niche social networking. We are laying the foundations to make SocialGO the platform of choice for building social networks online. It will represent a big leap forward for SocialGO when it launches this year.
We have new features coming to SocialGO networks in the next few months including a new chat system, a classifieds system and more. More information will be posted on the SocialGO Owners Blog and via @socialgo."

..come on dont die at the end of the day...

MMs are having a ball pushing BGT up while retailing the 2800000 they took in at 1.25. No wonder they will not sell in size.

[ucretin] 15/1/2010 14:05

niggle - I hope that you haven't bought into BGT without first doing some research. If you read through this thread you will find enough reference to ning.

[carl79] 15/1/2010 13:52

lol - posting (with clear opinions) on a bb about a company operating in the social media space and not knowing "what" ning is made me chuckle...

Google the word "ning" and voilà

[niggle] 15/1/2010 13:35

BTW whats's Ning?

[ucretin] 15/1/2010 13:06

Hi Carl79, I agree but someone seeing potential and having the monies to move this forward could spoil the game. Big loss here at the moment but it's always been a gamble. If it comes right then I'll be more than exdtremely happy.

[carl79] 15/1/2010 12:55

Hmm, perhaps...if they can demonstrate sustained, proportional revenue growth as opposed to or in addition to just network growth...

My impression is that the mgt team would want to see more product maturity before they sell - if indeed selling is part of their agenda

[ucretin] 15/1/2010 12:46

Been in since the beginning and have quite a holding at 6p average!!! BGT is breaking new ground, hasn't had the monies pushed into it like ning and doesn't have the same debt. My fear is that BGT may be taken over too cheaply rather than letting it 'mature'.

thanks smithy - yes MMs have in the past made the BGT price dance to their tune...I no longer get too excited unless some news accompanies movement but behind the scenes there are a few pieces falling into place
