Apologies for the long absence, readers, but this (your) blogger was out for the summer season + a month or two. In subsequent posts, we're going to go back to basics, walking over some of the old ground to see how much closer to the Liquid Economy we have come. We'll take another look at:
- Linkedin (Can't avoid it. Are they really adding 3000 users per day?)
- Naymz
- Notch(ed?)Up
- iProfile (SkillsMarket)
- Open Social
...And others that have popped up. We need to find out how close we've come to terminal velocity in this industry (free jobs? cheap CVs?). We need to see how much closer the Internet and the Intranet have come to merging. And we'll have to take a look at it knowing that the financial sky is falling. Are mergers and acquisitions in the works? What does it mean that Broadbean has been acquired?
By the way, it was just announced that Totaljobs and CWjobs won the National Online Recruitment Aware (NORA). I was at that party before another dinner engagement called me to an early departure. But the Samosa I had before I left was not bad. Actonomy hands the award over to Totaljobs..? Is this the same contest from year to year? I can't complain too much - I missed the awards ceremony, so I don't know how they came to that decision. But needless to say both of these companies are on my radar for a in-depth assessment.
Anyway, now that Batman has finally been done justice in the last two movies, I tend to think of myself as The Joker in this industry. You'll see. Welcome back.
