seems that the agreement between Skype and Facebook is imminent. VOIP company looks to eventually integrate with the 500 million users of Facebook giant. Skype already has 560 million registered users, but most of these use only the free services of the same. Many companies use skype payment services to lower entry costs and improving sales conversion rates and more. Skype is unstoppable with his recent announcement of IPO, in addition to closing a partnership agreement with the giant telecommunications solutions Avaya.
The post talks about Facebook and the recent rumor according to Skype, but the really interesting issue is to see how battle between Facebook and Google still open . Each follows the battle for him, but from my opinion, I think Facebook is becoming stronger in almost all fields, reaching strategic agreements with companies from different sectors , and now Skype.
has a VOIP service, which for now only works in USA, Google Voice , but I have started late as Skype have today nearly all the market share in this sector.
We see once again all converge where social networks are taking advantage of their membership and are trying to monetize their platforms by launching new services such as in this case the "Skype in facebook."
Zuckerberg giant has never managed to have a tool effective and stable chat and telephony, and now with this agreement may increase its market position by offering its users the quality of a reputed Skype.
The key to this deal is that both Facebook and Skype take out slice of it. One hand Facebook can get even more users (skype migrate to their platform) in addition to providing a quality VOIP service. On the other hand, Skype should try to monetize and monetize their video chat service and increase the number of paying users of its services.
The agreement is there now to be seen as monetized each other. My view is that both agreement announced Skype and some other "covered" what it claims is that its output recently announced public offering earn interest "and commercial market."
Finally, I insist that Google seems to lose strategic positions in many fields and is using Facebook very well flip boom 2.0 network with very strong strategic partnerships and monetized while Google is still a giant trying to diversify their income while on all fronts (VOIP, Mobile, Operating Systems ...) but where is your strategy seems somewhat scattered and which is late for many sites perhaps because the booming sector in more internet, which is the phenomena of social networking has not just arrived or is getting too late. What about Google Me?
And I just ... as always, my motto where everything converges and electronic commerce and in this case 2.0 networks as strategic key to all services find their place in this big cake : use the social mass to connect to millions of users with millions of businesses and solutions.
And now a question:
horizontal networks such as Facebook and we are releasing more and more services, but from a social mass Most of "entertainment", while or after nets as Pleiteando.com also safe not only offer the same or more professional services than horizontal, but they go beyond the concept is pure network hard of which many still have doubts.
I bet on a battle in the next few years very interesting between networks horizontal against vertical 2.0 where their membership is more professional and where the monetization is therefore more feasible in the short term, among other things ...
