I concur Mark, and Network is a loose term. I think the Weblogs Inc., clones have run there course, at least in English speaking markets, but if we count 9rules as a network, I think there’s a world of opportunity waiting in the more social networking/ community side of the broader term of networks, indeed for memory I predicted we’d see 9rules clones this year, we haven’t yet, but it’s only February :-)

I recall that you yourself said much the same in your interview on 1938media with the “boat has left..” remark. But “network” is a very loose term that has multiple meanings and I take the view that “networking” amongst blog-related sites will gain huge value going forward- as the mainstream audience comes to the fore. There is also an assumption of multiple freelancing – which I agree, is nigh impossible to manage. And lastly, “just like there is no big money in investing in penny stocks”- is of course patently untrue, as anybody in the City will tell you. The % gains can be unbelievable.
