web 2.0 companies now -- do it for free

  • The bottom line is that web 2.0 offers a new way to get integration with leading web services and you don't have to waste your time and the time of other busy people trying to craft deals that will probably work out badly anyway.

    • Here are but a few of the interesting things we have noticed:



      • YouTube makes it flash video player available via embed code on MySpace and their traffic takes off.
      • TripAdvisor search engine optimizes its service and becomes one of the most popular travel services.
      • Technorati hits delicious' api for its tags and builds the web's most succesful tag search service.
      • Indeed crawls the Internet for jobs and builds a popular job service overnight.
      • Kayak crawls the Internet for flights, hotes, and cars, and builds a popular travel service overnight.
      • Qoop takes Flickr's API and builds a Flickr printing service without ever engaging with Flickr's team.
      • Netvibes takes a few RSS feeds and builds a start page that looks as complete as MyYahoo overnight.


      You get the picture. These days it's often better to just take what's already freely available on the Internet to integrate with other web services. As Caternina explains in this post, the Flickr team didn't really have enough time to focus on the multitude of companies wanting to offer a printing service. Qoop just built one and when Flickr looked at it, it was an easy decision to offer it to their customers.
