If I build the app for facebook will they give part of the revenue that it makes back to me or to the community ?

Maybe it is time that members realize that being a part of the facebook community is very much like being a share cropper. You grow the food, but you cant own the land that you cultivate. You are only allowed a few crumbs to survive until your hard labor produces the next crop.

It is time for the community to take back their content and to receive a benefit for the fruits of their content an actions.

At adelph.us we believe that members that are selling products and members that build a strong community following can work hand in hand. We belive that giving all members of the community the ability to earn revenue and build intrest is a key to having a community where there always exist an opportunity to create and share.

All products that are added to a members adelph.us store are automatically available for resell by any other members of the community. The default affiliate rate for all products in adelph.us stores is 5% of the product sale price. Sellers can opt to change this to a higher rate.

All members have the option of sharing the revenue from product sells with; friends, or groups.

In addition to this adelph.us will donate a portion of its revenue to the adelph.us community bank each time a product is sold.

When a member sees a product on adelph.us that the would like to sell; all they need to do to is click the “Resell This” link that is at the bottom of all product details pages. Once this is done the product is added to the members store where it is available for purchase by other members.

Unlike facebook adelph.us is open source, so if you do want to make changes and have your own version you are “Free” to do so.

They are just getting all the blames.

Just look at how quickly those active numbers dropped off after spam was disables. If those users had been actual loyal users of the app, who derived serious value from it, they wouldn’t have dropped off so quickly. The reality is, viral growth is a shitty business model that abuses your customers by treating them as disease vectors.

And one thing people do when they get a disease is try and get rid of it as soon as possible.

FaceBook’s entire platform is based on a disease concept, which is why that $15 billion valuation will crumble into vapor once the antibodies of rationalism and viral-app-fatigue bite into them.

There is no way they could compete with Google with little cash they have now. They may stay alive for a while but won’t make any progress.

It should be wiser to go public raise cash while their stock is hot and make some acquisition in search (buy Ask) and enter google space.

That’s a good strategy!!! If they don’t they will be end up like Yahoo somedays.

2. Facebook’s business model is built around Facebook

3. RockYou and Slide’s business model has failed

4. Facebook’s business model is non-existent

Mark Zuckerberg is going to wish he’d sold a long time ago. The jokes on you Marky Mark.
