is a social networking website
in its infancy who are giving away free shares in the company to anyone that
signs up.

I knew that 1000's of adult sites were migrated over to socialgo from Ning! This is now confirmed - no need to do projections based on the alexa traffic...

as always, question is how many will decide to pay but we now have proof - 1000's left ning and set themselves up on socialgo...lets hope we see the majority stay...

Taken from www.widgetlaboratory.com 11/03/09

Well, it didn't take long to verify that Ning is not going to allow Network Creators to leave with their content any time soon.

What strikes us as especially ironic is the fact that Ning DID provide a (half-broken) way for all adult site owners to remove their content, which allowed WidgetLaboratory to move thousands of those sites over to SocialGO. Even though this was ridiculously crude for a company with as much cash and employees as Ning, it clearly demonstrated that there is no technical reason why content cannot be provided to all Network Creators.

It is rather sad to see that Ning is suggesting that this Network Creator's only choices are to either transfer all members and content to someone who will remain on Ning, or to delete everything... just flush years of work and participation down the drain.

WOW.

good luck rmart. Entrepreneurs like you are precisely the kind of person that BGT are targeting imo...This is why I think the 3% premium take up is an underestimate...Certainly will be when the marketing kicks in and the boxed version is available...I am actually hesitant on the boxed version but am willing to be surprised

[rmart] 13/3/2009 12:23

Well I am pleased so far with my site (www.extras.tv) and the service from SocialGO.

So much so I have started another, albeit this one is just a daft experiment that will eith fall flat on its face or take off in a big way.

Even so I am paying for it so there a bit more cash in the company coffers.

200MA and 50MA upward crossing for one thing.

[clafferty] 13/3/2009 11:15

Get ready for a spike boys.

[carl79] 12/3/2009 16:55

I know what you said orange - my point was made accordingly - up or down, the alexa graphs are not as important as they once were during Beta because we are seeing a skewed picture...

Carl79

I said upturn not downturn!

And for those who don't understand the relevance of blue lines turning up, this is essential reading:

[carl79] 12/3/2009 14:44

Orange - I think the chart will play less of a role moving forward as the networks that do not take a socialgo domain are not counted yet these are precisely the one we want to know about...good for showing the general trend i guess...

Still suggests to me that a lot of the socialgo traffic was made up of adult type sites...

[orange1] 12/3/2009 11:56

Well you could have taken the opportunity at least to highlight the upturn in the 2 alexa charts above. :-)

just thought i would grab the 4000 post,have a good day guys

[carl79] 10/3/2009 09:38

they are already generating revenue albeit likely in small amounts. If the numbers pick up then any investor (in the placing) will likely extrapolate what the numbers will be like in 6 months or so and decide how risky this is based on that calculation...1000 networks in 6-9 months time and they are unlikely to want to pay much more than 1p - however, if BGT can demonstrate that the trend indicates that they are looking at multiple thousand paying networks in that time frame (be that subscription or payment for the "extras") then there could be a lot more demand for the swtock and rather than the investor doing BGT a favour, BGT is doing the investor a favour by allowing them to take part in the placing - in this event we may actually see a placing at not too far from the current price. One thing IS clear, the sooner BGT get a handle on the numbers likely to pay for service the better...

[carl79] 10/3/2009 09:12

my guess is he thinks that the placing will drag the price down...without knowing the placing price and resulting dilution, im not sure how one could be so sure...

edit - sorry had not refreshed so hand not seen your response tony

[lobo] 10/3/2009 08:57

Well I think its pretty safe to say that any under performing share will suffer some erosion of the share price over time. Its true that BGT have yet to fulfil their promises, however dilution would not come as too much of a surprise and therefore a shock that could be absorbed.
On the positive side, we do appear to be on the brink of some revenue generation with the further roll-out and uptake of SG. So not all doom and gloom.

[tony727] 10/3/2009 08:44

lobo.

History of this share last 18 Months, No news and this will drift down, any spike people desperate to get out. No revenues of any note yet... More dilution in a very difficult credit market so 1p looks the best they would get.. Hunch ?? Maybe what do you thing.. I still hold by the way....

I beg to differ... one thing for sure this is going down again in the near future..

tony727

Are you going to sell a substantial holding?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I'm still interested to know the reason for your earlier statement ....or is it just a hunch?

[tony727] 10/3/2009 07:58

Traidemark,

No. The yanks only 4 hours behind at the moment, clocks changed 8th March. Ours change later in the month..

[carl79] 10/3/2009 07:38

if people want to sell - or rather think that the share price is heading for a cliff, they will dump shares - be it in drips and drabs or at large discounts to the bid...

Before i get hung up on what the placing price is going to be, I will wait to see how they have fared with network signups over the last few weeks...

[8trader] 09/3/2009 20:43

What not you have considered is what kind of price a 500k+
sale would get now, long gone are the 500k bid online at a
premium, it's desperate out there with so few buyers in anything
except mining tiddlers so again they might not sell simply because
the price they will get will be below the bid, maybe 1p ?

[traidemark] 09/3/2009 20:35

did the yanks close early tonight ?

[iantc] 09/3/2009 19:14

i think we could all do with the yanks doing us a favour by kicking of a bear rally ,but the way they are shaping they will drag us down lower ,funny but in a few years time we will look back and think why the hell did we not throw in the kitchen sink ,mind you i nearly have now ,lol
