Goodstorm wants 50% of the commissions, which sounds fair, but we'll see how quickly the intense competition in this space leads to commission collapse. I am predicting that we will see these commisions drop to 5% pretty fast, once the market begins to consolidate, so players will have to build their business models around that.</p> <DIV class="technoratitag">tags: <A rel="tag" href="http://www.technorati.com/tags/goodstorm">goodstorm</A>, <A rel="tag" href="http://www.technorati.com/tags/mecommerce">mecommerce</A>, <A rel="tag" href="http://www.technorati.com/tags/social+commerce">social+commerce</A>, <A rel="tag" href="http://www.technorati.com/tags/recommendations+lists">recommendations+lists</A>, <A rel="tag" href="http://www.technorati.com/tags//blip">/blip</A></DIV> </DIV> </DIV> <DIV class="technoratitag"> <A href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=http://www.stoweboyd.com/message/2006/06/goodstorm.html">+ digg</A> | <A href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://www.stoweboyd.com/message/2006/06/goodstorm.html&title=Goodstorm">+ del.icio.us</A> </DIV> </DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/09BFACA2-7909-4BFD-8F0C-B08B80359511/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
