There are a lot of good and hot things happening to the social companies right now. Of course Facebook is making big news right now with their IPO. LinkedIn’s first quarter revenues were up 101% with Net Income up 140%. They also snapped up SlideShare, which is a great presentation sharing solution if you haven’t tried it out. In addition to these revenue signs, Klout also announced today they are serving 1 billion API calls per day. Hootsuite is also stirring up another $50M and being courted by some of the big names. These are just a few recent examples but it got my attention. This kind of innovation on the edge of the social sphere is turning into top dollar in a relative short time. How will these continued successes influence the next round of players? How does it influence the more established players? Does it motivate you to innovate?
