...The success of Socialmedian has significant impact for me personally, as it is the first company to have debuted here on this blog, and see a successful exit...they didn't get here by launching and waiting for millions of users.

It's a deal! We've just announced the purchase of NY-based socialmedian Inc., a leading innovator in the online news industry. For XING it's a huge technological jump as it enables the integration of business news into our network. Why do we think that socialmedian is a perfect fit for XING? Here's why: In business success depends on access to the right information at the right time. Both the speed of information and the sheer volume of data have increased rapidly due to the rise of the internet. Traditional media companies, social media such as blogs, tweets, videos and other user-generated websites now provide daily news, leading to a veritable flood of information. The consequence: Time-strapped professionals are forced to parse through numerous news sources for relevant information and sort, organize, and share stories on their own.

The site, starting from scratch in the Spring, has risen up to challenge FriendFeed, Digg and other sites for social news - and continues to grow at a rapid clip.
