Is social networking sites killing forums?

Both social media and forums will always be bonded together. Right now I can get this info over to my social media space at a click of a button. Both are very valuable to have in getting information to others quickly. They scratch each others back.

I don't think so because social networking sites are good for the promotion but not for the links.forums is the platform where you can discuss anything but in social networking sites you only focus on your business topic.

I totally agree on that. forums are far from dying simply because they are more specific on particular topic when social websites are about everything and nothing.

i agree that social networking can get that high result

I don't think forums in general are dying off, but the demographics are shifting. If there are two forums on the same topic, people are more likely to register for the one that is more active.

Over the past many years I think this has caused most of the forum going population to shift from many sites of generally equal size to one ballooning site. In the starcraft community at least, why register on blizzforums or starcraft.org forums when you can just register on teamliquid and have a much larger community.
