DropSend for Sale

Several days ago, DropSend, a prominent Web 2.0 company specializing in "doing one thing well", went onto the auction block. The parent company, Carson Systems, run by Ryan Carson, announced the sale on Saturday at their "Bare Naked App", which was the launchpad for their latest product, Amigo.

DropSend has gathered a fairly large user base since they were launched a year ago; they have around 57,000 users. I've used the service several times, but not often enough to pay for the service, and have several friends who do the same.

On Monday, I contacted Ryan of Carson Systems to get some details about the sale, the asking price, and some figures to back up the asking price. He had some interesting numbers which made me think that his asking price is way out of line with reality.

More later on his numbers, and why they don't make a lot of sense .....
