There aren\'t plenty more fish in the sea
There aren't plenty more fish in the sea .
15/01/2007 - As a youngster I was brought up on a healthy diet of tuna fish sandwiches and Disney - making my new year's resolution for 2007 the toughest yet.
Unless consumer habits and more importantly the industry can adapt accordingly, fish stocks we have long taken for granted could become a rarer sight than a singing crab and an accompanying crustacean band.
For all their good intentions, New Year's resolutions are not enough in a matter of this magnitude.
With governments having to find a compromise between environmental concerns and the economic interests of fishermen, it is time that the food industry was made to take greater responsibility.
After all, the biggest selling point of a large portion of fish products which contain cod, tuna and various other species, are that above all else they offer a cheap and nutritious food source.
If the issue of price was changed, consumers themselves would have to look elsewhere, and affecting the issue where it most needs to be addressed - demand.
In 2006, conservation organisations like the World Wildlife Fund, predicted that stocks within some of the Mediterranean oldest fishing grounds, which hold species like bluefin tuna and cod are almost near to being completely fished out.

Plenty of Fish Billion Dollar Valuation, and Rubel’s Cool-Aid Post « Richard Giles: Blog
Now, as an isolated comment, I’d brush it off.
I don’t think it’s any worse, and let me tell you, from a Web 2.0 CEO point of view, it’s not simple getting money without a great deal of proof that you have a valuable business model.
Markus Frind, the man that single handedly launched a very successful dating site called Plenty Of Fish, seems to think his company is valued in the billions based off the back of the Microsoft and Facebook deal..
Now I have a good deal of respect for Markus.
He’s a nice guy, and has done one hell of an amazing job of making one hell of a profitable business, but it aint valued in the billions.
I’d also make a guess that Markus made the statement because it’s controversial: he has a history of saying things that stir up the blogosphere, and get him some attention.
But let’s assume he’s serious — even if it just gives me an excuse to post a blog entry today — and let me give you a couple of reasons why he’s not valued in the billions..
Microsoft is one of the most business savvy tech companies on the planet, and I doubt they pumped $240 million into Facebook because it bought into the $15 billion valuation.
