    Yet another Web 2.0 site... and I'm starting to get sick of them.

    Andy,

    Thanks for writing about this. I've been almost inactive on the Web for more than a week. Glad that I checked your blog today.

    Though I've spent just a few minutes (uploading pic, adding blog feed, etc.), but here is something that I don't like:


    * To ensure that these external RSS feed belongs to you, we ask that within 5 days you post the text avinash.gooruze.com somewhere in the first few lines of a blog post.


    They could use microid instead. Why one must add his Gooruze profile URL in a blog post in order to validate a feed?

    There are beginning to be so many of these, that I never know whether to spread myself thinner to fit them in or just ignore them.
    But I signed up and will start investigating.

    I have decided not to join any more social or biz networks. To effectively benefit from a membership you have to be an active particpant. Which is also to the benefit of the other members.

    There only 24 hours in day.

    I found a link from them in a feedburner referal. Looks good, will rise or fall on adoption of course - not sure if I have the time for yet another socmed site but...one to keep an eye on for sure.

    Hi Andy


    Thanks for the review of Gooruze, and also for getting involved in the site over the last 24 hrs.

    Sorry you didn't get a cool kids invite to the private beta :s

    Not sure where the 4 hour work week reference comes from though?

    Look forward to further feedback.

    Regards
    Clay
  • AndyBeard · 2 years ago
    Clay, actually it was also on your about page

    Gooruze is here to save you from information overload! And maybe get you closer to that 4 hour work week!
  • Clay Cook · 2 years ago
    hey andy,

    i thought i had read that somewhere! ;)

    that comment is meant more for the newbies that are looking to learn. for example, they can come to one place now, run a search for what they are looking for, sort by highest rated and just read the top couple articles... rather than continually searching the internet and visiting thousands on 'online marketing' sites.

    hope that heps clear it up.

    cheers

    Hi Andy, Thanks for sharing another new social bookmarking site
    I have registered as a member of Gooruze. Seems like it looks a bit similar with StumbleUpon. Unfortunately I've found that some interesting article you have to write it by your ownself. Each Gooruze profile looks like a personal blog to share with other members

    If you have your own blog, do you think you will copy and paste another content to there?
  • Clay Cook · 2 years ago
    Hi Mercury,

    Just so you know, you can actually claim your blog on Gooruze so that your external blog posts automatically are fed into your gooruze member blog.

    I'm wondering how thin I can keep on spreading myself. But I guess it's all about just delving into what works for you and leaving the rest. Trouble is I'm so inquisitive - imagine if I missed something that was important (or not)..... As Gooruz puts it 'keeping up is almost impossible'.

    Does seem much less complicated than other similar projects.

    As always - thanks so much for your insight and inspiration.

    I love social networks..heck I run one ;) but the only problem I could see is the willingness to part with information for free or give away your advantages...social bookmarking relies on transparency and trust, but not sure if online marketers are so willing to share, but I guess the packed forums for some of these niches prove otherwise

  • Doug Hudiburg · 2 years ago
    Thanks for this resource Andy. At first I was thinking "Cool, a targeted social community for the Internet marketers" then I thought "Damn, I have so much to do today, I can't get sucked in to it right now."

    Looks promising, though.

    I'll be setting up my profile later this week.

    @Steven Miller, are there really so many of these? I'm not aware of other sites like this that are specifically for the IM community.

    Another social networking and bookmarking site!! With so many of them around, they have hardly anything new to offer. Will check this one out too. Someone should just post a list of all these web 2.0 sites out there. Its tough to keep track. An idea for your next post Andy.

    Im assuming that this is going to become like the other social networking websites SOON.

    Since this is a social networking site primarily for internet marketers, we're gonna see some spam from people looking for outsourcing deals or trying to push their ideas.

    Nevertheless, worth a look.

    Yes Andy like you I just stumbled across Gooruze without the help of StumbleUpon. It looks interesting and I will keep in touch with it to see how it grows. Internet marketing is my passion with my particular fetish about using NLP alongside. I need to make some marketing strides especially in the SEO area tho the social side seems to be starting to build nicely without costing a bean except my time and effort.

    Keep up the good work

    I don't wan to be the one that spoils all the fun but aren't there already enough social networking sites on the net. Why would we need another one??? And yes, there is already a Social Networking site for marketers.
