Thank you for posting your feedback in my blog. When trying to find the good match of web 2.0 for B2B, I see the following matches: 1. Business matchmaking with buyer/seller participation 2. Lead generation 3. Reverse auction based b2b marketplace (Blog itself can be used for reverse auction bidding) 4. Sales can be concluded online 5. Buyer and Provider/Supplier rating can be done as in your blog posts. Let me know your thoughts. Rajesh Shakya http://www.rajeshshakya.com Helping Technopreneurs to Excel and Lead their Life!

But I think it is important not to count out the "online sales" opportunities for B2B companies. In fact, one of our clients (manufacturer of industrial vaccums) just upgraded their Web site to include e-commerce and had seven sales online that week alone. This is incredible for a company whose 'normal' sales cycle is months. I agree with your blog. But I think it is important not to count out the “online sales” opportunities for B2B companies.
