Comment on: Topic 'A RecruitingBlogs.com Rant': this over, this will be my last post in this particular conversation (for the time being): The issue here has progressed to that of social networks (such as this one) needing to find a way to generate profit. This conversation is very nascent . . . the answers are being written as we speak. To your question, social networks do not have business models that represent old-media. To think we're comparing apples-to-apples here (social networks vs. newspapers) is an extremely flawed assumption. It's a different ballgame . . . albeit not a very easy one to manage today . . . although I must say I'm glad to see that you finally made a comment about the community members: "And as long as the majority of users don't care you wouldn't have any problems." This is the very first time throughout this conversation that you've actually brought up the community base. By doing so, it shows me that you're stepping to the side of ethnocentricity and you're willing to consider the perspectives of the multiple parties involved in the community . . . however it took quite the long conversation to get there. Here's an idea for a book, if anyone is so inclined to write it: It's managing the gray area of a social network (the flyers on the poles) that may determine who wins and loses financially in the social networking game. Driving massive eyeballs is not enough to win; you must monetize those eyeballs. One one hand, you have bylines and taglines on someone's profile (which is normal & accepted). On the other, you have direct & overt advertisements being placed on members' profiles (not accepted and harrassing, to a degree). The question of monetizing the social network (to me) comes down to managing the gray area in between. P.S. Remember, you asked JD if I knew of his policies against overt advertisements on user's profiles. So to go back to square 1, considering you would have asked me what I knew instead of asking him: "No, Animal. I didn't know about JD's policies regarding overt advertising posts on community members' profiles."…; Added by Joshua Letourneau at 3:30pm on July 18, 2008
