		<description>Bonjour
j&#039;a vu que MONSTER avait racheté affinity labs dont military.com
Je vous invite à découvrir  deux sites spécifiques en France
ces deux sites ne demandent qu&#039;à se développer
le fondateur recherche des partenaires financiers - une régie publicitaire ou autres
rendez vous sur :
www.cafecontactemploi.fr
www.rompezlesrangs.fr
deux sites liés à l&#039;emploi en france
si vous voulez + de renseignements
nicolas BAIER  
(jeune créateur de 20 ans - j&#039;ai plein d&#039;idées et je recherche un partenariat pour développer comme par exemple MONSTER pour mes deux sites sur la France 
06 18 41 46 85

ou bien 03 88 60 57 75 
Cordialement</description>

		<description>$61 million in cash?!?  I&#039;ve got a few blog designs that get more traffic than their top three sites combined.  This smells like a scam.  So much of this business is who you know, not what you do or how well you do it.</description>

		<description>Chris Michel is simply the man.  He started this company in 2006, raised money on a PowerPoint from top investors, built a team in a tight talent market, and delivered on everything he promised in that PowerPoint.  Some CEO&#039;s get lucky, but Michel is one of those rare guys that is actually a leader and professional manager who makes a plan and makes it happen.  As an investor, I got to watch Affinity from the inside, and it has looked as good from the inside as it has from the outside.  Hats off to Michel and his team.</description>
