  • Unlike the global internet, which enables virtually the entire world to connect, social networks have created very large, localised communities with far more limited international interaction.

      So social networking sites are creating big scale barries ... never thought of that, but makes a lot of sense.

      It seems that these localised communities can be seen as online communities. Can they? What do you think?

    Indeed they are. Facebook is legendary for allowing a lot of users to enter information into Facebook, but not to be able to take it out again. At the same time there's a problem as google can't search Facebook. It will be interesting however, to see how the new Facebook Connect will work out, which is an attempt from Facebook to open up their walled garden - see http://bit.ly/ZKgwj

    @Joao: yes, I definitely think that local communities can be seen as online communities. In fact, according to Wikipedia, here online communities are described as: "Virtual communities depend upon social interaction and exchange between users online. This emphasizes the reciprocity element of the unwritten social contract between community members. Web 2.0 is essentially characterized by virtual communities such as Flickr, Facebook, and Del.icio.us. A similar trend is starting to emerge within businesses where online or virtual communities are taking hold. These communities can be organizational, regional or topical depending on the business." "Organizational, regional or topical" - I think we can add technical to this list. Btw. it seems like wiki use the terms "online" and "virtual" interchangeably. PS. Can anyone teach me how to make comments on Diigo? Why don´t comments automatically follow each other from oldest to newest? Mine seems to all be stuck together no matter what I do.

    Peter, have you installed the Diigo toolbar? If you haven't, do it. With the Diigo toolbar you can make comments, highlight, bookmark sites, add sticky notes, etc.

The Next Social Networks Will Be Powered By WordPress and Movable Type - ReadWriteWeb - 0 views

  • With both of the big players extending their traditional blogging platforms to offer social networking features, you have to wonder if traditional blogging is on its way out. For many years, web pundits have been saying that social networking would gain in popularity to such an extent that it would become a feature, not a destination in and of itself. These latest designs from MT and WordPress seem to prove that point

    is traditional blogging on its way out? Is this the future of blogging/social networks?

O'Reilly Network -- Building Online Communities - 0 views

  • This attracts people who enjoy the company of like-minded individuals and seek the social rewards of participating in a healthy peer group
  •  
    Looks like what we have in FOC08! I think many people were attracted by others. THis was my case, I was informed by a friend in one of my communities and mentioned it to others in another, the result being several more faces (or blogs) added to the course.

Social Graphs of On-line Communities and Social Networking Sites - 0 views

  • Communities have various levels of belonging.
  • the isolates [lurkers] outnumber the highly-connected.
  • Lurkers in online communities are often more than 60% of the group
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • The core members will stay and build the community. Unfortunately they are in the minority. The core nodes are usually less than 20%
  • The green nodes have a few connections -- usually with prior acquaintances.
  • To build a vibrant and growing OLC, you need to support natural human behavior, not work against it.
  • Connections are key
  • The core are analyzable and knowable -- they can be mapped, measured, and molded
  • Growing a community is not just adding new members. It requires adding both people and relationships -- nodes AND links.
