Today we hosted the last free public 1M/1M roundtable for 2012. In a characteristically international session, we had three presenters from Israel, one from India, as well as entrepreneurs from Chile and Malaysia.
Webbing
First Avraham Orbach, from Jerusalem, Israel, pitched Webbing, a social media concept that has at its heart a desire to help people discover new, like-minded people through a process of analyzing their social media profiles, the content that flows through them, etc. My strong feeling on a concept like this at this stage of the industry’s evolution is to focus on a specific community – options that Avraham presented ranged from brain sciences to Jazz music. I suggested to Avraham to look at the Tagged case study on our blog.
