Thanks for the kind words.

Even as (arguably) the most advanced social/viral analytics platforms as far as social networks are concerned, we’re just scratching the tip of the iceberg.

There’s a ton of work we’re doing in the background, as I’m sure many others are as well WRT analytics in this new environment.

Its a pretty exciting space to be in, and I’d argue that there’s actually more room for innovation on the meta-platform (i.e. dev and marketing platforms) front than even the application layer itself!

My company was a first-round winner that missed the grand prize. After talking to the winners, I was impressed. MouseHunt, Weddingbook, and GroupCard all demonstrated tremendous interest in their applications and an ability to leverage Facebook’s social very quickly after launch. The giant and growing ecosystem of Facebook apps could clearly benefit from the viral promotion and intelligence capabilities offered by Wildfire and Kontagent. Congratulations, and great job!

I just posted the email reply I got from Facebook to deactivate my account after I had correspondence with them, on my blog.

PLEASE READ THIS and understand that Facebook does not care about ANY of us:

Thank you for being open minded to my opinion.

I don’t think the users need a reward, they just need to be treated like adults, not like 12 year old kids.

I don’t know how many of you have interacted with the customer service at Facebook, but they are childish and very selfish. I had an issue with something on Facebook and they sent me a deactivate my account automated response as the reply to my email about my issues, without answering any of my problems or concerns.

I predict the fall of Facebook in the coming months and the rise of more Niche like Social Networks and the continued number 1 spot for MySpace.

One love world !

I so agrees with you. facebook doesn’t care about its users at all. and only reason they’re making money its because users tooo. there for they should reward
