Darn good post, Hang, and thanks for putting it together. Hope it helps some of the very frustrated shareholders (I put myself in that group, fer sher).

Everyone, enjoy the Fourth.

fine post hangdog

good summary.

folks here are antsy- and have been so for a while.
without ANY news or communication and the perception that NEOM is avoiding that at all (10k?) costs stir those ants up even more.

here's to better times ahead.

Excellent post hangdog. It is all about placing things into perspective, and as we know, iHubbers have always carried little propensity for such a process. Your third to last paragraph says it all. However, I am also of the opinion that when it happens, it will happen much more rapidly than people may realize.

Remember, the goal was to create infrastructure and distribute that infrastructure within industry. The "spiders" that are then created will act to drive this to the masses. The marketers understand they need to "ramp" in order to ensure the public is educated and not overwhelmed...however, IMO this will occur more rapidly than we all anticipate.

JMO...please, no more lynch mobs.

Best,

Was looking for a way to respond to Claw's "why is now NOT the time?" comment regarding pressing legal issues (e.g. no SHM). Claw is right: No SHM seems such a foolish transgression and citing "no money for a SHM" as a reason is downright insulting to shareholders.

But yet, I kept wanting to tell Claw that now is not the time to deal with this because our society is on the verge of something huge that NEOM is certainly a part of.

Your post, Hangdog, has helped me reconcile the contradiction of why NEOM is making such a stupid corporate decision and angering shareholders when there's so much at stake. I can only net out that NEOM as it exists now will not be around much longer (merger or acquisition likely) and therefore they don't really care if they follow the rules. They are busy preparing for the tsunami.

Hangdog, you are so right in stating that a new industry is being birthed. You, as a small businessman, are trying to unravel how to use all these new technologies.

I'm one of the "experts" who clients are paying to figure out how to do all this. My marketing/advertising business of 30 years is being turned on its ear by social networks, requests for mobile ad creation and tracking, the disappearance of traditional media and communication vehicles, the clogged Internet, do-it-yourselfers with a Mac (no offense, Hangman),and clients whose budgets have been slashed so much by this economy that they have idolized "cheap" phone/Internet-based delivery systems as their only salvation.

But no one really knows how to measure, monetize or use half of these things yet. Those who understand how it works don't understand how to market (anyone can "make an ad"--skill only enters the picture if you want the ad to work). Then there's pricing and infrastructure decisions, just as you have discovered Hangdog.

So your post, in combination with Claw's, has enabled me give this thing another 3 months to see what develops. How foolish, though, for NEOM not to set a date in the future for a SHM, even if it never will take place.

Just the ramblings of someone with unusual time on my hands today since the market is closed. All MHO.
