The YCombinator seeded and Rails-based Kiko is up for sale on ebay…
So far it’s at 0 bids with a starting bid of $49,999.99…
There’s 8 days 23 hours left to the auction. I have my prediction.
As Jason says, let’s see. My prediction is that 49k is too much for anyone but the likes of Google and Yahoo! to consider. Is there any value in the code for one of the big guys? Doubt it. What about a sizeable corporate looking to roll its own from a good starting point for internal use? Maybe.
The eBay format also prevents anyone from getting a look at the source they are buying.
All in all it doesn’t look great to me even though Kiko is a decent system.
