Those options don't strike me as particularly strong. The assumption is that people won't mind ads in their updates, but that's something that has yet to be proven and could end up being a huge risk.
- axod 18y agoPeople will just move to whatever twitter like service there is that doesn't have ads.
- callmeed 18y agoI disagree ... once the user-base reaches a certain level, people will stay simply because everyone else is there. Nobody moved to an ad-free social network once Facebook started placing ads.
- mattmaroon 18y agoNobody is clicking on the ads either. When Facebook finally did do something that might make money and forced people to pay attention (Beacon) it was so odious that they had to quit immediately or people would have started moving.
- axod 18y agoI think placing ads in the content (Messages) crosses a line of irritation. Imagine if gmail started inserting adverts inside your emails when you view them. How quickly do you think people would stop using gmail?
- whatusername 18y agohotmail inserts adds into my messages when I send them! Hasn't stopped people using it.
