Commentary on the above article from:

Cisco announces job cuts – 9 percent of workforce to go. Trevor Mogg July 19, 2011

Introduction Of SocialAdNet.net by its founder Stephen C. Sanders, Tuesday July 19, 2011




Social Advertising Net or in its domain name form: SocialAdNet.net is currently researching various trends regarding the use of social commentary as a means to enhance the usually desired outcome to drive web traffic in specific directions.

The information quoted above regarding "Cisco announces job cuts - 9 percent of workforce to go:"- Trevor Mogg, July 19, 2011. is certainly not particularly uncommon under todays  conditions of economic uncertainty. However as the old cliche goes, the devil is in the details.

Therefore the developer of the previously captioned website SocialAdNet.net is intending to research the article more completely in order to ascertain if the particulars regarding the cost cutting methods can be considered as any specific sort of information that can be interpreted as any specific sort of paradigm-shift. Or would this particular move may simply be a normal corporate strategy which has no specific relation to what many people particularly in the US are calling an economic meltdown.

This particular blog is simply seeking to establish some of the preliminary concepts which the WebDeveloper has in mind. Comments and suggestions as well a letters of interest from potential affiliates, authors, coders, advertisers and investors are encouraged to either comment here directly, or respond private to the e-mal adress included below.

Official Google Blog: Help and learn from others as you browse the web: Google Sidewiki

Official Google Blog: Help and learn from others as you browse the web: Google Sidewiki: "Whether you're researching advice on heart disease prevention or looking for museums to visit in New York City, many others have done the same and could have added their knowledge along the way.

What if everyone, from a local expert to a renowned doctor, had an easy way of sharing their insights with you about any page on the web?"

How Does The Google Sidewiki Work?

I need to first preface this by saying I have signed up for this app. and agreed to their TOS (Terms of Service) however I could honestly say that like most Terms of Service, I would roll the dice and imagine that these are rarely read in their entirety.

Now if you think about it if you deed decide to do a Sidewiki, lets say on a news or editorial  piece one would think your commentary should conform to certain standards. However imagine the following scenarions:

Suppose a large company is laying off a significant percentage of their workforce.


Well the common take on this is this would be simply some more negative consequences of the Global Economic Collapse. Therefore if your Sidewiki is going to be something of value or interest to the general population, one would think that it would be worthwhile to highlight some unique aspect or take on the matter in it might be well advised to avoid using a common cliche, and therefore dilute the value of your Sidewiki. 


That being said, I intend to return to the Terms of Service, which I have already agreed to and seek to understand how it might indeed limit (for better or for worse) the diverse range of commentary that this particular app is seeking to inspire.
