Talk:Strategy for Information Markets/Network Externalities

start a outline
It seems like there can be a lot of different topics under the idea of Network Effects. I think we can start a outline of what we think should be talked about here on the discussion page. Not sure where to start so maybe our group can come to class on Tuesday September 15 with a few ideas each of what they personally want to talk about in this book. --KingKing (talk) 01:56, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

terms for network externalities
I had been using the expression "network independent demand" for the amount of demand for a good (at a particular price) even with a network size of zero. The related term that's standard is "standalone value". For a good with no standalone value, it's called a "pure network good". TDang (discuss • contribs) 17:53, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

some reviews of this page
It seems that this page's structure is already formed. The content should be covered in this page is also summarized in the first two paragraphs. But the organization of the page is not very coherent yet, especially about the big/small titles organizations. Of course, there are a lot of definitions and examples to be filled in as well.

Comparing with the explanations and examples of "positive feedback", there is almost nothing about "negative feedback." Is it because "positive feedback" is more important and common in real lives comparing with "negative feedback." There is a section "Tippy Markets" especially talking about the situation of battling for "positive feedback." I am wondering, if there is also another type of market for the situation of battling for "negative feedback?"

The graph of explaining "Tippy Markets" is really useful. More diagrams/graphs with data in the examples are really helpful for people to understand and memorize the new concepts/terms. So I personally think there should be more graphs and examples in this page. Crazyjungle (discuss • contribs) 05:00, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
