Even when they are converted to Facebook applications, only a few widgets rocket, many fizzle. I noticed LinkedIn didn't make the top 15 list but it's worth checking out because it's where many people in business go (often to job hunt). The best part of networking besides connecting is "profile peeking" where you get to learn about people and find strangers that you're interested in meeting online because they seem to share a common interest.

It really suits people who have moved about a bit in life and have friends scattered all over the place. It has a nice simple interface and is clean and easy to use. The fact it is so popular is good as your friends will probably already be on there, and you dont need to get them to sign up. The drawbacks are that they have a constant stream of novelty applications which make the simple sleek interface messy and cluttered on some peoples profiles. Keeping up with everything is indeed a challenge - it seems to get worse everyday as we take on more and more. Well Facebook is actually not bad.

I don't even use that one but I belong. I can barely keep up with my blog let alone a Social Network. I wouldn't even know where to start. What does Facebook do for you?

These smaller sites will allow like-minded individuals and groups to connect, exchange ideas and receive genuine and useful support. These kinds of sites will also be attractive to advertisers as they get targeted demographics to spend their online advertising budgets on. Thanks to sites such as ning, anyone can start a niche social network about anything. There's also a search engine to help find niche social networks that lists thousands of networks for a whole range of subjects, http://findasocialnetwork.com I agree that the growth will be in the use of smaller, more focused, niche social networks that cater to a particular interest, hobby or vocation.

I dont get the Christian bit, but I imagine it is because you said that was your religious belief. It seems these contextual adverts are only paid for by dating services, and there is not enough content that the ad software can track in order to make itself relevant very well so the best keyword it can find is "single".

Whenever I log in I am always asked if I want to meet single Christian women in my area. In the past I remember the ads were much different and not targeted.
