Part 4: Social Networking Beyond MySpace, Facebook
This is part four of my series on social networks.
Have you explored some of the networking sites I’ve passed along to you? Some of them are real gems - especially if you’re interested in learning about other cultures and hobbies.
So far, I’ve named at least 60 social networking sites that can literally put you in touch with people who live, perhaps, in Finland or Japan and share the exact same hobbies as you.
It’s a great big social networking world out there. Go out and explore it.
