There are literally hundreds of ways to communicate and share your online experience - as you well know Mr Hellyer.<BR/><BR/>My point is, the web is ALREADY like "a city alive with conversation...Alive with connection...Vibrant with voices from anywhere and everywhere". No one website will ever be THE place to do that because it will never have everyone on it. So you're left with another social networking site, perhaps with a new twist or innovation, that will take a share of online social networking...but will it be something new in itself? I don't think so.<BR/><BR/>Not to mention the issue of funding. Last time I checked no-one has really found a way to successfully monetise a social network, somehow I doubt Renetto has the model that will do that either. So it will fall back to invasive and agressive advertising, no doubt cause an outrage as our socially available personal data is devoured and used to spew up the latest in advertising content.<BR/><BR/>Unless I'm mistaken, what Renetto is talking about is still Web 2.0Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
