: Hi,

if you chaps want to monitize Xing - see www.getmobster.com - using MoiP and offering cheap mobile calling to business users. Dial tone on your mobile is a world first.

: Great news! I am glad Jason's excellent work stands paid. In a Business World propelled just on profit motive, Jason's work must serve as an example for others to follow that entrepreneural creativity offers more than monetary profit. In the long run, we can bank upon internet related technologies for finding solutions of un-/under-employment problems. Perhaps 'relationship economy' will continue offering boder-less and unlimitied opportunities for those who can sieze these.

Dec 18, 2008

ReadWriteWeb Commentary on this week's management changes at LinkedIn implied that a shake-up was needed to make LinkedIn more like Facebook. As somebody who has used LinkedIn extensively and spoken to many people who have also found it very useful, this is a plea to listen to users and not the Valley cognoscenti. Sure, when Facebook wa (Read More)

: I agree - a model based on advertising is silly. the real value is in the network and the data. Sell services based on that, and as RWW says, realize that LinkedIn is an essential resource to tap *when needed*. We don't need another Facebook to suck up our time.

: They are 100% different models - as soon as I saw some of the latest changes I thought "uh oh"...I cannot understand, with all due respect, why digital properties do not focus, refine, and monetize the very business model that got them there. I consult with early-stage digital startups, and 75% of them want to "expand into this or that"....when meanwhile they acheived 5MM uniques with their core business model. Focus and refine and improve what made you what you are LinkedIn!

: ask what the ad space goes for on either site, and via mobile. Facebook has myspace beat by a landslide on mobile and apps, that's why it's value is so high. See how Pandora.com uses it's mobile space to land advertisers.

: It had to happen eventually ... common-sense, real-world activities and the drive for solid revenue will always bounce back against the drivel propagated by people hiding behind fake and underage identities.
