Looks like I broke trying to post this before but I'll try again


While we're around the subject of business I'll pontificate on the business model that's got my attention lately

My Space - a lot of people are talking about it, it's gotten huge word of mouth exposure,
one of the beauties is that it is viral, user A builds a page, user B has to become a member to read user A's blog and wants to post back to user A's page and then builds their own page and so on to user C,D,E, F and so on and so on

and what it is really is more reality TV, write about yourself so the world can read and give you props?

But it's working and it's huge

So I look at how to monetize and see just one ad on every page, then I think if your showing that one ad millions of times a day that becomes pretty powerful

Advertising makes the world go round, I'd say a few years back the internet lost the ability to deliver R.O.I. and started selling branding (I spent 14 months with a large internet advertising concern so I have a little first hand experience)


Once again we've taken the worlds most powerful information medium and made a flea market of it ....

... and who cares as long as there is $$$$ to be made

Now if I can just come up with the next big thing and be there first ;-)

Hmmm I need reality, vanity junk that is viral
