Groupon is an awesome success story and will do very well even after its IPO. Linkedin just recently doubled after its recent IPO. Living Social will be next. However, the upcoming Facebook Deals will give them a run for their money. Plus, the game will change. This business will become more social in nature like adventure activities with friends ( i.e. rafting, etc. ). The biggest winner will be the consumer as he/she gets more deals on a regular basis. 
So Groupon is partnering with Expedia starting this month to give North American consumers better travel deals, almost 50% off the retail price. Great incentive for travelers. However, it also spells doom for more tour operators and travel companies who will end up like Blockbuster Video. Sleepless nights for Flight Centre, Uniglobe, etc.
