Moonray:

The interesting thing was the membership money the brothers get! Looks like if they can get 500 members a month at $200 a pop, they have revenue of a 100,000 Presidents a month! Not bad for a small operation that runs on automatic pilot except for some (no I guess a lot of) programming and webmistressing - the thing that costs big bucks is the creative "content" thing and they do not have to deal with this.

But interestingly Yahoo may "commoditize" the message board concept. Then again there is a lot of junk in those Yahoo boards. Perhaps people are viewing the membership fee as a filter.
