Facebook widgetmaker claims a six-figure profit
Snap Interactive, the widgetmaker behind Facebook apps Are You Interested and Meet New People, earned first-quarter revenues of $519,902 for a profit of $190,509. We know because their PR firm sent us a release saying so.
Created by two brothers, the company shows that one year after applications were introduced on Facebook that this is more than just a fad and definitely a legitimate business model.
Six-figure quarterly revenues aren't exactly Google money. Or even Google search-engine-optimizer money. But if you're a widgetmaker who cares to disclose your profits, we're all ears — if you include the phone number of your auditor.
