:You are absolutely correct about personal interests. As I indicated regarding [[surfing]], anyone tagging an activity/subject as a personal interest can be queried from the subject article; boxing would be no different. However, since Main space articles must adhere to [[NPOV]] (which means no link spam, etc), there is little incentive for authors to contribute. The real play is to develop content within protected directory/user space - this is where virtual communities can be created.

::Then why not scrap all but the essentials? Have an article on [[Poker]] because people will have that as a common interest but [[Chip Tricks]] - c'mon that is completely superfluous and ripped from a completely superfluous wiki page. No one can own "chip tricks" or "delaware" or "what have you" creating a fundamental conflict with centiare's purpose. '''However''', Paramount Vantage or Craig Brewster the director could easily own "black snake moan" the new sam jackson flick even though it's obscure and trivial.

:Ads are included at the discretion of users; they aren't placed there by Centiare. Monthly billings are so Web1.0 - think Web3.0. That means transactions.

:: Transactions, intriging. I found a guy much smarter than me expounding this on a blog.
:::''“I have a dream for the Web [in which computers] become capable of analyzing all the data on the Web – the content, links, and transactions between people and computers. A ‘Semantic Web’, which should make this possible, has yet to emerge, but when it does, the day-to-day mechanisms of trade, bureaucracy and our daily lives will be handled by machines talking to machines. The ‘intelligent agents’ people have touted for ages will finally materialize.”'' - Tim Berners-Lee (Sounds good)
::I still think the ads look cheap. Maybe look into embedding them into the wiki deeper so they feel natural; like they've always been there. [[User:Garrett|Garrett]] 17:33, 2 February 2007 (PST)
*''(Again no offense) The internet is littered with the bodies of dead or mentally retarded wikis. The winner (only wikipedia so far) and losers are seperated by a very fine line. Centaire is at a point were it will either exponentially increase or falter and become a blip on archive.org. I don't want to see blipage.''

:Actually, bandwidth & servers are incredibly inexpensive. There's a reason the Foundation is running 50% margins.

::Really, I underestimated Sun micro, oracle, the dell/hp/etcs, and Al Gore's ability to make the internet so affordable. [[User:Garrett|Garrett]] 17:33, 2 February 2007 (PST)
To conclude. I envision a facebook, wikipedia, business profile hybrid becoming a dominant force of the internet. Dominant = putting the kids through college, and of course a porsche 911 turbo with chrono package. I am an experienced wiki editor with 4 investment experience ranging from unit investment trusts to exchange traded funds (and an IQ of 139). Getting in on the ground floor of something big would be beneficial for my dream of a house in the hills and a trophy wife. I'm here to help. [[User:Garrett|Garrett]] 15:44, 1 February 2007 (PST)
