Interesting tidbits on why Real Identity matters for Network Effects...

Starting off small and scaling upwards, as far as when you are looking to grow your company, following, movement whatever it may be.

This is why we say “start with the white-hot center” of your network and expand out from there. A dense, highly active network will outperform a larger but less active one every time.

It’s no coincidence that the two most valuable online networks in the Western world were also the first networks to achieve stable growth with real names in their profiles — LinkedIn in 2002 for professional profiles, and Facebook in 2004 for broader social profiles.*

Is the future of the internet anonymous, semi-anonymous or tied entirely to our real identity?

Is this already the case??
