Communtication

A good 12 months ago you could depend upon a a solid core of your social network to be centralised on several common social networking sites, such as flickr, twitter, facebook, linkedin.

Audio Mixing Panel at Webjam Sept 2007

Another week, another social network. It seems like that at the moment doesn’t it. Are we really getting to saturation point with social networks.

You know the drill you have to work out if your friends are on there yet. Is it going to be appealing, will your friends adopt this application. Do you invite them or not. If they are there, what email or username are they under. If finding your fiends isn’t enough, there is the whole communications aspect of the social network.
