Everyone’s talking about the launch of Togetherville , a social network designed to bring parents and their kids together with the goal of learning responsible social networking. Does it occur to anyone that children six to ten years old (Togetherville’s target) don’t need social networks, and to encourage them to use one is the antithesis of responsible social networking?

We believe that this is due to the fact that it can be very inspiring for brands to see how others have obtained success in building a presence on social media, and thereby gain insight into how to do so themselves. Via social networks people all over the world are able to interact, share content, valuable advice and also recommend products to each other, for example.

I live, eat, breath and sleep this social media stuff, and yet she did it while my wife and I were down the street trying to hit tennis balls. Chances are, they do not live, eat and breathe social media.

Social Media Monetization is becoming THE hot issue in online community chatter. Social Ads are driving down the price of regular online ads: A recent analysis by ComScore shows social networks, primarily Facebook and MySpace, have over the last year drawn an average CPM of only 56 cents, compared to the $2.43 for every 1,000 views; social sites dragged down the average online CPM by as much as 18% over the last year.

Mobile is accounting for a huge portion of social networking use; for newer platforms like Instagram, Snapchat and Vine, use is “almost exclusively mobile.” LinkedIn and Tumblr are the only two social networks seeing more desktop use than mobile. The other networks are also seeing higher traffic and time spent from mobile devices, and comScore predicts the divide between mobile and desktop use will only continue to grow.

There is nothing in the social networking world that resembles that definition. Thanks to the power of social networks.

One of my commenters last week asked about the difference between social bookmarking and social networking sites. I think of social networking sites as ones where you can communicate directly with other members, where as social bookmarking sites are ones that you can add bookmarks to be shared with other members without as much direct communication. Here are some networks that can be used for both purposes. Social Networking Features.

We tend to think of social media as either a network of friends and family or a marketing channel–with a few variations in between. Few of us choose to think about the other uses for “social listening&# , or the military uses for social data.

Recently a couple of people told me they were thinking about unfollowing all of their social network friends and starting over. Sometimes it’s done as a “grand gesture&# to convey to the world that the quality of social network relationships matters more than the quantity. If on the other hand you feel the quality of your social network relationships has deteriorated, then maybe you do want to unfollow a bunch of people.
