A new business social network

post thumbnail


What might happen if we took two parts Quora, one part Linkedin and blended thoroughly? Advicefile.


Advicefile has launched a new social network for the business community. The heart of the site is member generated questions and answers on any business related topic. It's a simple idea with a refreshingly easy to use interface and engaging interactions. Members post questions ranging from career management to business strategy and receive advice from other registered users.


Rather than seeking "one right answer" to a question, members can compare advice offered on any question and reach their own conclusions regarding the quality of the answers. They can also publicly recognize good advice, which is highlighted on the site both in the Q&A forum as well as at the member's profile. Questions aren't edited directly by members or Advicefile staff, but editing suggestions can be sent directly from one member to another.


Beyond the opportunity to trade information and ideas, members can follow other members in their news feed or make direct connections. Their individual profile highlights their background and promotes themselves and their business. A beta version of the service is now available to the general public.
