I haven't been one of those calling it a Ponzi scheme or any other con, because it pretty obviously isn't; it has problems and I doubt it is sustainable, but not for those reasons. (Megan McArdle on http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2011/05/why-does..."One study found that 32% of Groupon merchants lost money (with restaurants faring worst) and 40% said they wouldn't do it again; even people who made money had staff problems due to high volume and, er, cheap tippers")
It is usually easier to modify working code than to write something from scratch, if my suspicion is right, I expect Google will launch its own Groupon-like service integrated into its other offerings eventually.
