I didn't realize some real marketing genius I look up to would have the same observation as I do! When I visit a site and I can't find any ads, I just shake my head. I wonder how they can manage to operate and maitain the site. It's true they're banking on the traffic that adds value to their websites but it's obviously on the verge of exhaustion because they have downtime most of the time. Somebody said, "If you're doing something that prevents you from making a profit, you're just wasting your time." I'd say Amen to that too. Jane Stutheit Armand,

A young "expert" on my right was talking about blogging. The "expert" to my left, social networking. A 3rd genius, about getting Venture Capital from Angel Investors so their start-up site could reach critical mass. And there I was talking about MAKING MONEY everyday, converting sales online an being profitable from day one. They all looked at me as an evil 3-headed monster. I thought most of their "genius" was nothing more than pop Web 2.0 pyscho-babble. Captain Lou http://MarketersGoneWild.com Hey Armand,

I've seen so many companies leasing high-dollar office space, getting their Aeron chairs and the La Pavoni espresso machine to launch products they don't even know if there's a demand for. They spend more time seeking and pitching venture capital companies than they do seeking and selling to customers. I've always loved the way you've done business, Armand, and I'm always learning something new from you. Keep up the good work! Bill Hibbler I couldn’t agree more, Armand.

Some of these social networking sites have implied values of hundreds of millions dollars to over $1 Billion... billion -- with a B!? Even if some of the sites become profitable, the gold rush has enticed so much capital that most will have trouble garnering and retaining enough market share to sustain a business long-term....

Even if some of the sites become profitable, the gold rush
has enticed so much capital that most will have trouble
garnering and retaining enough market share to sustain
a business long-term….

At some point, people might decide face to face contact
if more valuable than staring at a computer OR Iphone
