5.  Social networking truly is the new
way of the world. With print on the
decline and the number of
bookmarking, sharing and blogging
sites increasing every day, this is one
medium that is demanding attention
– and it’s either get in or be left in the
dust
 When used correctly and effectively,
these sites have the power to deliver
news to more people than you ever
dreamed possible. However, it is
quality over quantity, so the
following are our notes on the best
way to get your message out to an
interested audience.

6.  The Ability To Create A Profile Page – This Is Your Main “Home” On The Network.
Different Networks Offer Varying Abilities To Personalize Your Page In Terms Of Look
And Feel. They May Also Differ In Terms Of The Types Of Information You Would
Include, Such As Name, Location, Education, Etc. Facebook, For Example, Asks For
Your Relationship Status (Because It’s More “Social”), While On LinkedIn, Which Is
Primarily For Professional Use, Does Not.
 A Way To Find And Link To “Friends” Or Connections–the Purpose Of A Network Is
Connections, So Facilitating A Members’ Ability To Find And Connect To Other People
Is Important. Each Network Offers Different Types Of Search Capabilities And Once
You’ve Located A Potential Friend, You Must Send An “Invitation” To Invite Them Into
Your Personal Network.
 Privacy Controls–in Most Networks, Your Ability To Access More Detailed Information
About A Person Is Based On Their Status As One Of Your Connections; “Friends” Can
See Much More Information Than Those Who Are Not Your “Friends.” You Can Control
Who Is Actually In Your Personal Network By Effectively Managing Who You Invite
Into Your Network And Whose Invitations You Accept.

7.  The Ability To Send Public And Private
Messages – In Ning And Facebook, You
Can Communicate With Your Connections
Either By Sending A Private Message Or
“Writing On Their Wall.” On Linked in, You
Communicate Via Person-to-person
Messages. Ning Also Provides Forums
Where Members Can Interact With One
Another On Specific Topics (You’re
Reading This In One Of The Ning Forums).
 Ability To Share Various Digital Objects
And Information – Both Ning And
Facebook Allow Members To Share Various
Online Items, Including Photos, Videos And
Rss Feeds. Linked in Offers Some Ability To
Share Links, Although It’s Multimedia
Capacities Are Nothing Like What You Find
On Facebook Or Ning

YouTube and Flickr.

via ping.fm on social networking sites via

What are micro blogging and blogging sites all
about?
Micro blogging sites (i.e. Twitter) allow you to post short versions (around 140
characters) of what you are up to. You can post a new article, blog entry, or
article as a “tweet,” status update, etc, which others can then view.
Blogging sites allow for more room and greater versatility. Write relatively short
posts that will engage the reader; create an angle and write engaging pieces that
make the reader want to return.
