VnSpoke Renamed CyVee with New Features
About half year
ago I blogged about the first Vietnamese social
network services for professionals. Just last week I got an email from
vnSpoke alert of name change. Checked it out, still the
same color scheme so as members would have felt of coming back
refurbished house. Frontend design seems much more user friendly with
some new features: Q&A, job listing. The name CyVee made me think of China'
Cyzone, the SNS for Chinese
entrepreneurs, sounds familiar to Korean Cyworld. Members can add photo
to their profile and I saw some kid pictures representing corporate
executives, perhaps some users prefer funny avatar showing off to others
rather than professional/business networking. Q&A section could keep
members stay longer but I think it would work better with tagging
feature. There is no profile widget similar to LinkedIn yet. Maybe the
CyVee team is developing more features since I see the backend
(framework and database) had some errors. However they had drop the Beta
badge from the logo. Like other SNS for professionals, CyVee will make
money from job listing
fees. This is a necessary move, but the revenue seems so small. How
about sponsorship and advertising?

Vietnam Social Networking for Professionals?
My friend just got an invitation from vnSpoke,
a social networking service for Vietnam's professionals (Vietnameses
or/and expatriates working in Vietnam or/and...). The logo is a kind of
GoingOn clone. Vnspoke model may
follow OpenBC, LinkedIn but I see the Konnects or Zoodango platforms
better chance. With Konnects you can join many
groups or integrate your own network, that you have somethings in common
beside just business concern. Zoodango
"connects professionals through local events and preferred venues
like Starbucks,
a place where you can express your lifestyle in relation
to your
profession". If you are a professional, do you
connect to vnSpoke? Is vnSpoke professional?
