You don't quite say how you think you can make money from "passion and data which resides in their user base and profiles."</p><p>If its not advertising then how else are you suggesting they make oney? Selling their own syndicated products and services?</p>Paul FisherTue, 02 Oct 2007 11:45:01 -0000http://www.theequitykicker.com/2007/10/01/some-more-magic-to-come-out-of-facebook/#comment-4455734<p>Have you tried doing advertising there ?<br>71 cents of profit per user is finally not that bad ;-D</p>leafarTue, 02 Oct 2007 08:08:40 -0000
