Ask HN: Should I build a Chinese clone of About.me | Flavors.me? I purchased a domain name 12 years ago that you could say is as good or even better than about.me but in Chinese (pinyin) and its the .com . My original plan was to do something like about.me but I "never got round to it". My question is, now, having seen market successes such as about.me and flavors.me prove there is demand, and given the Chinese web is a large enough size, would you go ahead and basically create it now purely to take advantage of the business opportunity as opposed to actually being passionate about it? edit: Would rather not disclose the domain - trying to keep the discussion on the concept rather than specifics. |
