Is it just me, or are many companies cleaning

[BradShaw]

Is it just me, or are many companies cleaning house and axing employees. Even snoops is gone from Max Cash.

[Mike AI]

Hell, if the FCC doesn't get busy and do its' job, the adult industry is gonna end up as a hobby. When you think Janet Jackson (Nipplegate), or Victoria's Secret, or MTV, or (insert your favorite soap opera), think free porn on TV...it's coming. :grrr:

YEAH HOOO!!!

Broadcaster have to pay way more for content then web do !!!

opps...

Seriously - Adult has always been the bleeding edge of techlogy - if it wasn't for Adult online there wouldn't be online processing, web cams, streaming, hell most of the fiber laid across the world. blah blah blah.

Its just going to have to be about the next be techno jump.

Has anybody read the newest Fortune about the guys from Kaaza (my personal heros) who have started up a new company to put the phone companies out of business with their computer to computer phone access.....

Everyone thought Kazaa was going to put online Porn out of business.

Things that make you go mmmmm.....

sorry - 4 double expressos after a .99 margaritas the night before - I'm in full babble mode.

See how Reality/Episodic Content really does make you money!! (http://www.azureentertainment.com/melissa/azureROI.pdf)

Well, I can't speak for other companies, but I do know that our numbers are up.

As far as changes, I don't see any major ones coming from us anytime soon.

We'll just continue to do what we've done for years...

Pay webmasters maximum cash for their traffic. :)

Oh my! Incoming!!!

[Snoops]

That's odd....

I don't recall pointing any fingers at MaxCash or any other specific program. I am simply stating my opinion on the industry :o)

And, I think anyone who has been in this business for any length of time knows as well as I do that numbers across the board ARE down. I suppose you could do a comparison of this month's numbers versus last month's or this quarter's vs. last quarter's - but that really wasn't what I was referring to.

Overall, the profit margins are slimmer, companies are watching their outlay more closely, streamlining their operations, maximizing (even more so) every click as well as every potential penny earned from every member and are actively searching for products or projects that provide immediate return on investment.

What used to be disgustingly easy has now become a full time job plus. So, I stand by my *general* comment that I highly doubt these are the last changes we will be seeing larger programs make.

Times are challenging (shrug) - and everyone knows it.

[Evil Chris]

Instead of firing an employee, why not just marry them?

[macho]

people just come and go. things change all the time and you can't force a guy to work for you the rest of their life. there will always be time your not anymore happy with your work, and normally you will have to look for a much challenging career.

[Snoops]

Chris!! (smootch)

Does that mean you'd marry Paulo (sp?) if ya needed to??

That'd be bigamy in many cultures ya know!

lmaopip

BTW, that little boy of yours is one of the cutest kids (along with Vick's Sebastian) that I have seen in AGES.

[pushpills]

So let's all be big for a change

I mean a one man, one woman marriage was good enough for your grandmother but who's want to marry your grandmother


no offense intended to anyone's grandmother

Thanks Snoops :agrin:

[sextoyking]

We have 1 vonage biz line in the office we are trying out and I have 1 packet8.net line the kids use at home.

They sure do work good pretty much all the time.

Vonage biz line for $49.00 per month give you a free fax # and line also. Of course with Unlimited usa, canada calls, call waiting, caller id, voice mail, etc.

I *finally* understand why you and Mark get along so well!!!

It's because you're both goofy!

Or, are you Goofy and he's Pluto? You're Mickey and he's Donald...

You're Captain hook and he's Goofy...that must be it.

At any rate, you're both Disney characters...and here I had always thought it was the hair!

lmao

[Vick]

Actually I stole that bit from :groucho:

But when Mark and I sleep together it's hard (pun intended) to tell who's fucking Goofy
