Read this article: http://thenextweb.com/insider/2013/07/04/would-you-hand-over-cash-to-contact-a-specific-person-directly-me-bets-you-will/ It's a startup that aims to make you money every time you get contacted... unlike Facebook's lame paid per message with Directly.me you actually get paid when you've got someone contacting you - it's quite similar to LinkedIn I guess because you give them your education/working details along with the additional life experiences and skills.. I guess if someone paid me to learn about IM i'd help them out for sure will this concept work? The site has 2.6m people on it.. iMacros anyone? or wait till it grows more
Just imagine some of celebrities register there and how many fans will stalk them and pay money to get a reply.
