These sites weren't built behind a revenue model, therefore achieving substantial profibility will be next to impossible. SocNets are tools for users, and should be viewed as value added for another type of product for consumers. When people network, they want to network, not be sold. When you meet friends at a bar or restaurant, do you want some jackass coming over to your table to sell you car insurance, or a spring break vacation? I didn't think so.
