Kurze Porträts von LinkedIn (29 Millionen Mitglieder) und Xing (6,5 Millionen). Nichts Neues, aber der Hinweis, dass ihr Erfolg auch andere Player anziehen mag: “American newspapers such as the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal are adding networking features to their websites. These are mainly meant to get readers to stick around, but they could grow into alternatives to professional social networks. And then there are the professional associations for which moving online would be only natural, but which have been a surprising no-show in social networking so far, according to a recent study by Outsell, another market-research firm.”
