Late last week, Paul Montgomery (CEO) and Tai Tran (CTO) invited themselves over to Casa del Reilly to give me the rundown on Tinfinger. It’s kind of like the new Who’s Who. But online. And open. Less stuffy than Wikipedia. And they will pay you to write profiles on the site. Pay you, that is, in ADSENSE IMPRESSIONS. Interesting business model.
Tinfinger reminds me of a site I started up a year or so ago with a similar idea. I walked away from the business when I was less-than-impressed with my business partner’s attitude and ethics. But that’s a story for another time.
To give you an idea, check out my Tinfinger profile here.

Good one, Monty. Will be interesting to see how the business model evolves. Impressed that you have done this without any funding and taught yourself to code!
I still cannot understand why they would want to be interviewed on TPN and lose their credibility by talking about Jesus in terms of real person.
Now, I want to create a profile for Thor. I think he’s just a better imaginary friend than Jesus.

I’m a HUGE Thor fan! I’ve got a mjolnir pendant and I named my trust company LOKI. 😉
I’d rather have a Herne portfolio, because I’m a Herne fan! (no kiddin’!) I’m also a Robin Hood fan… I think it’s because I’m a Sagittarius…
Actually we haven’t got Jesus in there at the moment and we probably won’t, because his name gets used in vain so often that he’d probably be top of the headliens every day!
