Evolution of Social Networking
Social networking is booming and with millions of users interacting daily with sites like MySpace and Facebook, consumers are wondering what is the next natural step for networking. Flickr co-founder Caterina Fake said, "There’s a sort of wisdom of crowds and collective knowledge that’s actually the product of sociality, but isn’t directly related to that person being connected to you. So the social systems are much more interesting in many ways, and will be in the future."
Social networking will also venture more into real-world sociability. Companies are already connecting social network users via mobile applications, which alert them when another network member is in their vicinity.
