AllFacebook: CBS Sports Granted 100 Invites Per Day

  • Neil @ Facebook Insight · 1 year ago
    What did anybody expect? The company is still trying to secure funding, and although I'll probably get whacked on the head for this, I think that having a few Applications that truly demonstrate the community potential will be good for all Application Developers in the long run.

    I mean, invites alone aren't enough to seal the deal. If you want to take on the big boys at CBS, come up with a better idea, a better marketing scheme, and face the music: the social web isn't going to be fair for a while.

    Maybe until Google's "do no evil" mantra comes into play, and OpenSocial/FriendFeed rules the web.

    I really don't see why not. It's a good application. I just wish there weren't so many other applications so my friends would pay attention to the bracket invite I sent instead of ignoring it along with the 10+ invites they get from other apps every day.

    You're absolutely right Nick. It's hard to come out and talk about this, as we don't want to get punished by Facebook.

    so my account is now down for "maintenance" due to my outspoken views on the matter :)

    nicely done, facebook.
