But that doesn’t mean it should be overlooked.

blogs: The catch 22 of Facebook <a href="http://bit.ly/9JKL7e" rel="external">http://bit.ly/9JKL7e</a> http://www.030176.com/items/view/6321 Fri, 03 Sep 2010 08:44:00 -0700 http://twitter.com/vadnu/statuses/22897945849 The catch 22 of Facebook http://www.030176.com/items/view/6320 Facebook is apparently trying out ways to add a ‘follow’ feature to your social stream. Some hope it will enable you to follow other people than just your friends (fat chance of that happening, ed), others that it will make separating signal from noise from your friendlist just a little easier. More than anything I think it illustrates a growing issue that Facebook has; figuring out whats next. That’s no simple feat, and it isn’t made any simpler by them having +500M accounts. Because everybody has an oppinion. And what some people think is great, others will think suck. And those others may walk away. In other words; Facebook runs the risk of losing users going forward pretty much no matter what they come up with.

And perhaps this is why I am really looking forward to attending this afternoons unveiling of Podio, a collaborative platform for work, who aims to be the “Facebook for companies” as their new CEO, Tommy Ahlers says. I have been following some of the work that Podio – or Hoist as it has been called during stealth – has been doing over the last year, and I have met the founders several times. They are razor sharp, have a strong vision for what they are doing – and they are really dedicated towards making it happen. I trust that they will, and I only hope that they will inspire countless others to go out and just do it too.

Unless of course you are very sure that your product stands the test of perceived value with consumers. Do you really feel confident, it would pass that test, or are you just trying to be very optimistic? Be honest.

blogs: Of course you need a business plan <a href="http://bit.ly/ceGsVg" rel="external">http://bit.ly/ceGsVg</a> http://www.030176.com/items/view/6310 Thu, 02 Sep 2010 10:35:00 -0700 http://twitter.com/vadnu/statuses/22817071101 Of course you need a business plan http://www.030176.com/items/view/6309 Some people claim that the age of the business plans is over. I would say quite on the contrary; there has never been a more pressing need for a good and viable business plan considering all the more or less futile businesses being launched on the premis that one day they will (hopefully) make some more. We can however discuss the format of the plans. I agree that static Excel-sheets and Word-dokuments are not the way to go, but (1) you can actually make them living documents now (ok, that one was pretty cheap), and (2) you should consider great online tools such as PlanHQ instead. Because, when your business falls by the road side, not having a business plan in the first place is a lame excuse.

Apple has also launched a scathing attack with its new Ping service. It has got to hurt at the once all and mighty social network.

Did Ping just make MySpace more or less irrelevant? http://www.030176.com/items/view/6306 Thu, 02 Sep 2010 00:21:00 -0700 http://twitter.com/vadnu/statuses/22779178104 blogs: A nice little project <a href="http://bit.ly/ajltim" rel="external">http://bit.ly/ajltim</a> http://www.030176.com/items/view/6304 Wed, 01 Sep 2010 22:43:00 -0700 http://twitter.com/vadnu/statuses/22774809733
