:Well, first of all, you can't ripoff copyrighted information. The way to proceed is to convince other subject matter experts to work with you in developing marketable content.

:Secondly, IMO Google ads are merely a first step towards full-on Web 3.0 ie transactions. Become an expert on semantic tags and demonstrate how they can be incorporated by businesses. Here's the real key: which platform(s) is Web 3.0 to be implemented? Apache via raw XML? Or a truly beautiful interface like MediaWiki that is so forgiving with its open-edit capabilities? Have you taken a look at the automatically generated [[RDF]]s? I mean, do you have any idea how cool that is? Google absolutely scarfs them up.

:I'd bet on a wiki - we like to think Centiare has thought this through and has the platform, tools & resident experts to show others how to pull it off.

I won't - but I am creating a state template by cannibalizing the overly complicated wiki template. [[User:Garrett|Garrett]] 18:40, 6 February 2007 (PST)

I think we should use the 50 states to set an example of how centiare should work and why it is different than wikipedia. Throwing out some ideas - so - to do this we need to
*first make the states uniform in approach.
*show off the attributes, and relations more
*infobox all the states in a '''simple''' box. No crazy highest peak, state bird, crap. That belongs in an enclyopedia, not a directory. Centiare is business and people oriented though so things like GDP and governors, should be mentioned.
*no long winded paragraphs/sections like texas currently has. Concise - no one wants a history book when they go looking for the yellow pages.
*Now there's no problem to have all the cities and counties on each state page but when there are a few hundred it will look horrible. Maybe link off to a "Counties in X State" page and "Cities in X State" page. Or do that and couple it with a "major city" attribute to distinguish pages like houston.
*Maybe a "businesses located in x state" with a short blurb about business in the state and a link to a semantic table.
Just some ideas. Feel free to pick them apart. oder stimmen Sie mit einigen uberein. Boeuf, Ce n'est pas un grand chose. (And eventually expand into centiare.fr/centiare.de)
