yammer: twitter for work groups
Pascal-Emmanuel Gobry liked this
is that like windows for workgroups?
- MG Siegler
i'd like to have something unified.. sending parts of the twitts to my peers at the workgroups and other to the public.. they sound like a twitter feature to me
- Naor Mark
the company's phrase: "what are you working on right now"
- Eric Eldon
We've just set it up this morning. Great for a distributed team like we have. I think this is a keeper.
- Nigel Eccles
I love this, I think it could be very useful for companies, but also families and other groups.

a more symbiotic way that an advertiser and publisher can work together - while helping user experience
- MG Siegler
widget for ads that don't require you to leave the page for the advertisers page
- MG Siegler
stick credit card info into the ad unit itself
- MG Siegler
it can be hosted on a non secure site and the transaction will be secure - that's important
- MG Siegler
full revenue knowledge rather than impressions and clicks

"those companies are really slow" laughs

OOOOH DISSS yahoo mail is saying they already have it
- MG Siegler
"first of all, nobody has hit this yet!"
- MG Siegler
only a few people knew about yahoo having this in the crowd
- MG Siegler
i can't believe that yahoo is the only big one that has this. launched 2003: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id...
- Sam Pullara
I honestly don't get it. Managing a bunch of inboxes seems to me like more of a hassle than letting it pile up and searching your inbox when you need somerhing.
- Pascal-Emmanuel Gobry
It is really well executed, I will give them that. The problem will be that Yahoo/MSN will kinda do this. Not as well but well enough.

email overload

AdRocket up now
Anthony Farrior liked this
inset ads into email subscriber newsletters - individually targeted and relevent
- MG Siegler
most emails going out have no ads and non-targeted ads
- MG Siegler
how do they measure impression counts?
- Chris Lamprecht
they believe this will outperform cookies
- MG Siegler
personal data never comes back out - only ads come out
- MG Siegler
tested against spam filters? they make it so that all the content will look like it comes from the publisher. a tricky issue no doubt.
- MG Siegler
