This is no less true for the world of social networks. Networks like Digg, FriendFeed, and Facebook are seeing huge growths in value, but the little guys, the ones actually providing the meat and potatoes for those operations, rarely see a nickel. Let’s be honest for a second here. The major “Web 2.0″

It also allows you to share your bookmarks on other social networking sites.

Seek out communities that address the needs that your company also addresses. Let the community know who you are. Introduce yourself, engage in the community, and let them learn about your brand. The key here is making the mechanics of the social networks transparent. Social networks like Digg are open source???

I am fascinated by the amount of social networks that I’m part of, but better yet, I’m intrigued to find that I assume different “personas,&# at least in terms of choosing friends (and using the networks), on each social site.

Founded by four ex-Googlers, FriendFeed allows you to subscribe to your friends’ updates across 35 social networks and to stay up to date with the content they’re discovering and sharing across the web. In social media spheres, it’s almost unavoidable to not engage online with content in some way.

Plurk introduced a comment system which helps create a conversational feel. There’s been much talk about people gaming the system and worrying about their karma, thus plurking about them losing (or gaining) karma points. All this communication and web socializing takes too much time (even if it is fun).

Nearly four months later, the social features appear to be here to stay. As Digg becomes more of a social network and less of a social news network (or a hybrid that incorporates both elements), it has a lot of obstacles it needs to face.

I certainly do not support the Draconian position that somehow social networks threaten email’s existence as a marketing channel. Those two areas are a lot more interesting than the devolution of Social Media into direct marketing.

Google is undoubtedly huge and they could simply shrug their members off like Digg does to its much smaller userbase, but instead they engage the community and that’s why Google is such a positive brand. It’s their community of choice and that’s fine. This is my perspective.
