New round of funding for LinkedIn
I should stop borrowing you with Linkedin but I just can't :-) After having raised 53 mio USD in June they raised now $22.7 mio more. It's worth noticing that the publisher McGraw-Hill Companies is part of this strategic investment. LinkedIn is employing 320 people and that money is more than welcome !

Will the financial crisis filter out the web2.0 start up ?
Obviously when the stock market crashes, don't expect too much to get easy funding for your new start up. actually even what we could consider as success stories could be impacted. Dailymotion and netvides are under pressure and one could easily predict that only killer app will survive the down turn. On the one side, we could be glad to get only the best surviving, but on the other side it will definitely slow down the innovation cycle we could expect with trends like RIA or growth of the online spending. Who'll survive will live for long !
