the social software hype...

Filed in archive Venture Capital on September 18, 2003

This is probably the most blogged event I have seen so far. Some very different reports from the same panel about social software. It seems like everybody attended a different session. Andrew Anker, Ross Mayfield, Michael Masnick, CBS and Dow Jones Newswires have all been intensively reporting about the future of social software. What we know for certain, Friendster might receive the first round. LinkedIn is close to an investment as well. Sounds like good news for Konstantin. What we don't know, maybe with the exception of LinkedIn if there is some business model ready to be exploited. But interesting enough that even besides the two mentioned ones, more start ups are in the line for an investment. So we Lean back and see....
