Skating to where the puck is going

[Jakensama]

WhatsApp is pretty huge abroad - it was adopted widely from all the people who used Blackberry Messanger once they moved off blackberries.. I use it to communicate to most of my Euro/Asian colleagues/friends who refuse to get gchat like normal people. Understand its pretty big in Latin America and Mideast too, so probably an expansion tactic. It also allows leaving voice messages, and from what I've seen they might be expanding into a skype like service.

At least I hope so, I can't imagine banking 16 billion on a service with 465 users who pay at most a buck a year being a good strategy otherwise...
