Welcome Back Old Friend! Let’s Set the Standard Together AGAIN!
Posted by Thom Byxbe | Under Concept Wednesday Feb 6, 2008
We think it is appropriate that The Industry Standard should return in the same month that TechKnow Times should launch CITB. It was all the rage when TKT was all the rage pre Dot Bust. Then The Industry Standard went BUST! But as we at TKT believe all really good ideas come back and this one did!
For those not familiar with The Industry Standard - the 2008 incarnation:
The Industry Standard features news and analysis that covers emerging technologies and companies, venture funding, acquisitions, site launches, and other developments in the internet space. Additionally, The Standard aggregates community knowledge in a quantified fashion, thereby ranking both the knowledge of the individual community members themselves, as well as the value of the information the community provides as a whole. This system is built as a prediction market, intersected with a reputation-based social network.
Welcome Back Old Friend!
