Social Networking

Social Networking Online relates to formation of a circuit or a chain of friends, family or partners who use variety of tools to interact with each other or share their views in accordance to different aspects.

A proper definition of Online Social Networking can be given by "a community of people who share a common link and thus connect to each other through their social interests or any other needs and thus bond together?.

The growth of Online Social Networking has also come up to the fact that it lends a strong platform for an individual to come out with personal views in a nurtured global way of approach.

The outreach of this service has put together millions of people sitting round the globe and has helped in bringing in the fashion of as said Neo-Classism.

I believe that social networking is taking part on the social communities according to your interests.

I think a better definition of a true social network is a website platform system that allows the creation of a unique identity, and profile that reflects your individual style that can communicate and be connected to other similar profiles for a common purpose.

A social network, in my opinion, is just as it sounds. A place where people come to talk, get to know each other, and communicate. When the topic is very defined it allows for more of a connection between members. Hence a better environment and a strong community.

Well - My specialty; Social Networking and Internet Marketing. Social networking sites have gotten a boost from Internet Marketers and webmasters of all classes shapes and colors. It's just like in real life; where many people gather on one place, for what reason ever, will soon be a market in full development. That's a fact and it has been like this since we climbed out of the trees.

Social networking sites have actually not been founded to be social but to make money. Since the funders of a social networking site can't make money without a huge amount of members, they have to allow their members to make some money too or at least profit somehow from their participation. The latter is mostly to be referred to placing valuable links to their own website content.
As bigger a social networking site grows as more likely they won't need other Internet Marketers anymore though. Links that where once direct links to the participants websites are changed to internal links like on MySpace and Facebook.

The main purpose of any social networking site, and i mean ANY of them, is to be bought by some huge Internet Company like Google or Microsoft and hit the jackpot this way. So don't give too much weight to the word "social" in social networking sites. It's actually business networking. Without Internet Marketing, social networking sites wouldn't stay in business very long. 

In my view, a social networking is were like minded people share ideas. It works well when you have a social network it helps business.

I think social networking will really take off once more sites adopt OpenID and users no longer have to sign up for an account at every site they join.  Think how convenient it would be, for example, to just start posting to forums like this one with your OpenID rather than signing up for a new account for every forum you want to post on.

That's true, also facebook connect may help to this way, but I don't really know how easy will it be to deal with spammers when posting to a forum will be so easy :)

Well, hopefully spammers will have a hard time getting OpenIDs in bulk, as they have their own spam safeguards.  Then forums could implement a captcha or some other check to make sure you're a human the first time you try to post to a forum.  There are already quite a few sites that accept OpenIDs and they don't seem to have a spam problem.

I use it for backlink.

social networking is very important for increasing traffic and building backlinks if it's dofollow.
now google release google friend connect.

But now you will be able to see that many human also doing spam as well. What will you do for that. To remove them you will have to appoint someone as moderator and extra cost to you.

Lets come back to social networking issue - I do believe that if you will be able to use it wisely than this can be a boom for your websites.

Social Networks killed our free and working time. They should be forbidded

Social Networks are a good hangout place where I can connect to all my friends through a single interface.

When do you visit  Social Networks? During working time or at home?

Social networking as community and it is also helpful for increase backlinks and popularity.

Social networking site is one of the techniques that drives traffic on a site.. Here are some networking sites that I engage with:
facebook
twitter
tagged
hi5
friendster
In order to generate more traffic, you have to invite tons of people/followers, then try to make them follow on your site..

That definitely sounds enticing. However, what about the disadvantages though? I guess there is a potential for failure of security in both personal and business context. While many sites apply certain measures to keep any of these cases of harassment, cyber-stalking, online scams, and identity theft to an absolute minimum, you still may never know.

 social networking means the communities on the websites where different people share there views. some of the popular websites are orkut, twitter and facebook.
