Are you social networking? I am on LinkedIn, Facebook, Biznik, Plaxo, Meetup, and I'm sure many others that I have forgotten about. it is hard to keep track! SchmartBoard is working on some of these features for a future website. I have been playing around on many of these sites to learn as much as I can about the features, technologies, and some of the strange things people are willing to do or tell...just a few million of their closest friends. This current revolution may soon dwarf the web 1.0 phenonmenon that we have very recently lived through. With this in mind, I'd like to invite you all to become a fan of our humble SchmartBoard fan page on Facebook. In addition, if you are on LinkedIn and if you feel so inclined, link up with me as a client of SchmartBoard.
Social networking is kind of a paradox when you think about it. It creates a lot more noise in our already crazy tethered internet experience...but at the same time, it allows us to know people that we could not otherwise.
However, you Twitter people, I may never understand though!
If you intend to start a social network site as mentioned in your newsletter, you should fully understand the privacy issues and implications of such a thing. Here is an excellent starting point.
