About one month ago, I felt I had to try this new Q&A feature on LinkedIn and asked to the community a question that resulted close to this: “Hey guys, I’m having a hard time writing a blogpost that lists all possible software business models. I need you help!“.

I actually collected pretty valuable answers from a number of people whom I would like to thank in this post: Doug Houseman of Cap Gemini; Camille Espanol of Cataphora; Marc Aniballi of Crack Method; David Keene of SAP UK; Rahul Sharma of Tech Mahindra; Les DeGrof of Entelos; Daniel Weisman of GMAC Mortgage; Charles-Henri Schulz of OpenOffice.org.

The qualifications of the people who answered me are simply amazing. I believe LinkedIn does a very good job at creating auto regulated communities built on trust & expertise sharing – a little bit like eBay’s ranking system.

I recommend you have a look at my question and the very interesting answers I got (both thoughts and materials I should read). It’s all there.
