It seems that the latest social networking is everywhere.
Facebook has passed membership of 500 million users.
C. A film was recently on Mark Zuckerberg, the creator (well, the Creator said, but this is a another time), the social networking giant that has gathered enough attention to a top-grossing film to be released.
It is rare to see an advertisement on tv or in a magazine that doesn't have a Facebook page listed for the company.
Department has recently announced that they will be able to use in order to buy tickets in Target stores, online at \"Buy \" in their online shopping, games, etc..
Social networking really is everywhere.
This is not another article on the social networking is the way we communicate changed and the time spent on these pages may be harmful to our young people, weddings, etc..
Quite frankly, anything that creates or expands dialogues between all of us can't be a bad thing.
With mobile access and recently geo-locating applications and basically one in 13 people of the entire global population now a member of a social network site (actually that ratio for the most popular site alone), where does the design of social networking sites evolve once they achieve usable market saturation?
Not that I am attempting to portray social media as a fad; quite the contrary.
I consider them more a very, very, advanced evolution of our most primitive social media, email.
early search sites started developing portals with web mail, personalized items like weather, news and even calendars.
Now with sites like Facebook including everything under the sun (games, etc), I think it is entirely possible that we will see the advancement of today's social networking sites take the form of actually going backwards.
We have already seen more focused niche sites with great popularity and I think we continue to see, a division of today's huge streamlined mega-pairing in a more simple, functional websites for the future.
Take a look at those popular search portals of ten years or so ago.
Were included in the total.
They had local weather, news, and on and on.
Then came Google.
They had a search site that merely searched.
No more than a search box on their side.
And it worked.
The concentration on a single core product (research) could capture the market research.
Now, even as they offer mounds of additional products, they have left the search very much (on the interface surface) the same.
Already sites are popping up like Viewcaster.
viewcaster.
net /), which eliminates some of the fringe components of larger sites and focused on the communicative aspects of social networks, trying to get a very simple interface, while the other popular content such as blogs, social media.
So will Facebook and the like just dwindle away? Of course not, but don't be surprised to continue to see smaller sites popping up, many elaborating on components that the giant sites had bundled in their mega sites, and many of these niche sites actually launched by the big sites.
No matter, it meant making its fun.
