If they are ever to survive they will be forced to use technology better than they do at present as well as understand the real value and potential that their user-base has. 'Who knows who' is not a business model - and sadly that is still at the core of many elite social networks. I have way more to say on this topic than I can write here, which is why I wrote a post myself.

It doesn't even compare to LinkedIn in terms of getting business done.  I am also a big Facebook fan which I think is ideal for connecting with old classmates and friends.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Mark Dougherty</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 01 Feb 2009 22:34:10 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Elite social networking site Total Prestige to raise $1M</title><link>http://venturebeat.com/2008/12/02/elite-social-networking-site-total-prestige-to-raise-1m/#comment-4177008</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I would also check out &lt;a href="http://Decayenne.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="Decayenne.com"&gt;Decayenne.com&lt;/a&gt; too&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">venturebank</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 04 Dec 2008 18:49:50 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Elite social networking site Total Prestige to raise $1M</title><link>http://venturebeat.com/2008/12/02/elite-social-networking-site-total-prestige-to-raise-1m/#comment-4176996</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I'm members of ASW since 2004 and Total Prestige.  ASW has expanded their content , event guides and apllications for their members. They have also kept a strict limit of growth to preserve the quality of the audience. Total Prestige is beautiful and the members are active and very elegant. It is a safe place to make new friends or explore business deals. I thinks it is wonderful that the money raised doesn't need to be spent on infastructure since it is based on the Ning platform . Since the ad dollars need to be spent more cautiously ASW and Total Prestige brings a focused audience for the luxury marketer.

I can't even access the registration page from the main page.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As to Diamonlounge, it's never been an "elite" social network like they pretend to be, but a dating website for a few "wannabees". &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Antony R.</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 02 Dec 2008 05:10:41 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
