For the past 3 months I have had a Post-It note on my computer screen
saying: “publish a list of social networking sites”. Because I harp-on
about the subject so much I often get approached to provide a list of
50-plus sites. Rather than keep doing it by e-mail I thought I would
get the details onto my blog. That was in September but other stuff
kept getting in the way.
So apologies to the owners of all of the sites I have missed or put in
the wrong category. Send me an e-mail and I will update my master
listing.
A great blog about all stuff social networking

social networking sites – not listed in any order of priority. It will
be interesting to see how many of these are still around in a year’s
time.

For those of you interested in designing online social networks: The theories of social groups is not a bad article to read.
Finally,
if you want to read somebody who really (I mean really) understands
this social networking stuff then you should subscribe to danah boyd’s
blogs apophenia and Many-to-Many That’s it – the note has been ceremonially torn up and put into the bin!
