@TIS, how will this be judged? SocialThing hardly made the blip on comScore report to be used for judgement. Looking at compete.com, since prediction came into play in March, Friendfeed has gained popularity while SocialThing continues to faltfline on monthly unique traffic (http://siteanalytics.compete.com/socialthing.com+friendfeed.com/?metric=...).
Furthermore, AOL has just acquired SocialThing (Aug 14) and will integrate it into the AOL People Networks along with Bebo (acquired in May 19). As indicated (http://blog.socialthing.com/) by Matt (CEO of Socialthing), "Specifically speaking, we have a really cool opportunity ahead of us to integrate into some other AOL products that might change the way you see social aggregation. AIM is a really big target for us, both on the aggregation and on the publishing side, so you can imagine how excited we are to be able to work along side the team." What if SocialThing does not exist in its current form by end of year?
@TIS, is it reasonable for judgement to take place when SocialThing officially becomes part of AOL and that the latest metric be used instead of waiting to the end of 2008?
