Rajeev, I've noticed you've been spamming like crazy on the web with your new product as if you were an end user. I'm sure your product is great but I suggest you tone it down a bit. Jeff, I would check out TalentHook, Jigsaw and Broadlook Techn...

What bugged me was after I put plenty of thought into a reply of their first "ad" - offering another point of view - I hit the "add comment" button and up comes the "your reply needs to be approved" message. That bugged me. And it's still bugging me because they have obviously decided to not allow it. It wasn't nasty or anything - just my opinion on their views........oh well.

It's interesting how many so-called marketers (like them) come here and do their company a huge disservice by making a bad impression. Like those guys from the various split groups, etc. Unbelievable......
