SocNet Ad Network Lotame Raises $13M
Lotame has has raised $13M in Series B led by Emergence Capital Partners with return backers Battery Ventures and Hillcrest Management. Lotame is a New York-based online advertising platform focused on social media.
The idea here is compelling to us. It wants to help monetize social networks by gathering information about types of users within social nets.

BTW - Lotame stands for Local target media.
