I look for a nice steady runnup from $26 and the first shearing of the sheeple rushing in shortly after...big wins for insiders and traders!

My guess,

In under fifteen years, they will be the subsidiary of some other big company.   That company will pay under $400million for it,  and even at that price they will be overpaying.  It will end its days as some mostly abandoned website that nobody really knows what it does by that point, even the people running it. 

They may grow fast,  but they die even faster.   

Just look at companies like AOL or Netscape.

Yeah, staying relevant, especially in techie stuff, has to be just about the hardest thing to do.
