A free business idea. Is this traction for Plurk? Kind of.

You may think that this is traction. Well, it is in a way, but this has more to do about everybody trying to secure their usernames on Plurk, a twitter clone. I secured "loic" while Scoble got his scobleizer stolen by someone else. Free business idea: launch a $20 service that makes sure you get first your name secured in all the new services launched. Is this traction? Not really. Right now I do not plan to go back to Plurk until enough of my friends actually use it, not register their names in it. Let's wait and see. Plurk.jpg

About

Welcome to my blog. Based in San Francisco, I am an entrepreneur and a blogger. I just started my fifth startup, Seesmic, a community driven video social software. Here is what TechCrunch says about it.

I am blogging every day a video on loic.tv about (almost) everything I do as I start Seesmic, I also constantly post short thoughts to twitter and often my pictures on Flickr.

I also organize every year in Paris the conference LeWeb3 that gathers more than a thousand bloggers and entrepreneurs from 40 countries on Dec 11 and 12.

If you would like to learn more, here is a bio, my LinkedIn profile, my wikipedia pages in english and french. Sometimes they are subject to changes that do not always reflect what I consider the truth but that is the principle.

You may also want to subscribe to my RSS feeds in English, French or my video podcast feed.
