Sorry John, I’m not with you at all. Emotional relevancy is driven by time, but time-based financial relevancy is heavily correlated with no-margin spot markets. Real-time navigation is great, but its not an environment where vendors can repeatably and regularly sell products and services that make them profitable.
My thinking is colored by having run, and screwed up, two real time search startups in the past decade, but I’m not blinded by it.
