Asked about the inspiration for Tsu, the social network he?s just launched, Sebastian Sobczak doesn?t immediately mention Facebook or Twitter. Instead, he talks about Ed O?Bannon.

Mr. O?Bannon, a former U.C.L.A. basketball player, sued to challenge N.C.A.A. rules banning athletes from making money from their own images ? in August, the Supreme Court decided in his favor. And for Mr. Sobczak, he?s a sort of personification of Tsu?s ethos: People should get paid for the content they produce.

While Facebook and Twitter have been criticized for failing to share their profits with those who post on their platforms, Tsu pledges to do just that: It will give 90 percent of its ad revenue back to users.

Tsu?s philosophy is that ?all content creators, which is basically every social user, should receive royalties for the commercial use of their image, likeness and work,? Mr. Sobczak told Op-Talk. ?They essentially do all the work, they should get rewarded with the lion?s share.?

Tsu: The First Social Network Where Users Own Their Content ? And Get Paid For It

The Social Media giants may be in trouble!

In Today?s world social networks like Facebook and Twitter both use user-generated content to generate profits for their shareholders with no money going back to the user.

Now this has been the norm ever since the beginning of this digital age, but a revolutionary idea has come along looking to change everything around.

Tsu (pronounced ?Sue?) is the first social network that is opening up its bank to share 90% of the revenue generated with it?s users. It just launched on the 21st, and its algorithm intends to re-distribute sales revenue directly to its source. TSU also works on an invite-only basis.

Good idea, get in early :thumbsup

Too bad they don't have a dot com.

Anyhow, anyone remember:

AllAdvantage.com ?? :1orglaugh

great space for spammers ... woohoo, money for nothing! :1orglaugh

How much you made so far? :winkwink:

looks good, do they allow adult images

I've signed up, always good to test these things out.

Not sure, give it a try :2 cents:

I remember being glad I tested Tumblr out, brought plenty of sales in the early days :2 cents:

Not a good comparison. AllAdvantage was paying the user to watch ads. This one pays the users to create content that goes on the site, which is then used to get traffic and ultimately sell ads for that traffic to view.
