At a time when most social networks are still trying to figure out how to make money from advertising, one social network is bucking the trend. LinkedIn, the social network for business professionals, has so much demand from advertisers that it will be launching its own ad network on Monday. In conjunction with ad network (Read More)

A controversy is brewing over a popular Facebook application called PackRat, where users collect sets of illustrated cards for points and levels. The company behind the application, Alamofire, says that users generate up to 500 daily page views per day on the application trying to hunt down the right card to complete a coll (Read More)

: No. I see facebook is a social networking and I can say it's an excellent social networking because, you can meet from there all of the power people from around the world. Some people teach everything for free and some others learn for free. So there are the good system but I don't know if the system is balanced! Only, I see behind facebook's application, there are a big corrupt because some applications don't get correctly "you see that to the different application's games"! I hate that because I want just to play different game not playing for being star with, lol!!! Sure, some people use and exploit the informations of the others and buy them. Some others add to exists applications your informations and tell that it's the application from facebook and sure they will sell with a new system the application in saying for example Mozart had some others articles never edited so many people interested on it! I go there especially for teaching everything as I can and learning too if I could AND rather to support some differents causes. So, about informations taking for others, no my problem! Except if anyone use my pictures, I'm FURIOUS!!!! I would want earning money with the correct way! Working-Money not Playing-Money! 4

San Francisco-based social network Hi5 is touting some data from comScore today pertaining to its Q1 and Q2 2008 performance. It claims to have grown 79% since the start of the year. Which, on its face, seems like an impressive figure. It charts an increase of unique monthly visitors from 31.4 million, circa December 2008, (Read More)

For the past couple of months, every A-Lister from Robert Scoble to Steve Rubel has been singing the praises of Friendfeed (Rubel thinks it could become as big as Google). And now that Twitter seems intent on self-destructing, even Tech Crunch has joined the fray, proclaiming that everyone is leaving Twitter for Friendfeed. (Read More)

: I've resisted trying Plurk thus far. I don't really have a need for a twitter alternative. What am I missing?
Jul 23, 2008
: Plurk has a great interface but faces an uphill battle in the era of 'Twitter's down again' I've spoken with a few friends who are frustrated with Twitter always going down so why would they want to switch to something similar that no one uses and may go down.Plurk is neat in that it seems to be more conversational, I'll still keep my account for now 
Aug 04, 2008
: I'm on both Plurk and Twitter, and I must say Plurk's search capability is horrid: makes finding people to follow next to impossible. As a result, I'm pretty much Plurking to myself, and that's no fun regardless of how 'pretty' the interface is.

Something’s up at business social network LinkedIn. The Mountain View, Calif. company’s board meeting last week went way over the scheduled time, and sources tell us there’s some “good” news coming. The details are still hazy, but worth noting because of the ongoing rumors swirling about the co (Read More)

: All the rumours and hype about LinkedIn's possible acquisition are ver interesting, but mainly serve the interests of the founders and VCs who are able to exploit them to create a quiet bidding war. However, as someone who has used LinkedIn very actively since it was in beta, I should also say that the company's quality of service, and in particular its respect for its heavy users, have not increased either in proportion to the number of users or to the number of competing social/business networks, most of which are in my humble opinion me-too services that don't deserve much attention. The truth is that Facebook has developed from a purely social network for college kids into a very good mixed social-business service that, at least for my purposes, provides about 30% of LinkedIn's added value, but with many functions and applications that LinkedIn just doesn't provide. LinkedIn's big mistake is in trying to control the platform to closely; but the power users such as myself are just rebelling. A service that doesn't respect its users doesn't deserve to survive, and unfortunately LinkedIn is sailing pretty close to the wind. I'm not going to jump ship, to continue the nautical metaphor, because it is definitely useful to me, but if LinkedIn doesn't allow users to build new content and applications on top of the generic platform, it will haemorrhage users to Facebook and other services that have a strategy based on greater flexibility and responsiveness. The premium services and advertising are not doub bringing in some revenue; but if LinkedIn is bought out by some mega-corporation tomorrow, the buyers are likely, given the overall quality of the service, to find themselves facing the same problem as eBay after purchasing Skype -- writing off a big chunk of money. 1
