You do give up some things. You have less control over design, minimum posting requirements (4-6 posts/week for us), and you don't own the blog itself (though you do own the content). But you also get access to a great internal community and you don't need to worry about the silly parts of blogging that everyone hates: design, hosting, software issues, plugins, ads, etc. We take care of the silly stuff and just let folk blog. A network isn't for everyone, and every blog doesn't belong in a network, but a highly focussed niche blog will almost certainly do better as part of a network than trying to succeed all on its own.

]]> Comment on Social networking for all by Joe http://www.cogentinsights.com/2006/08/09/social-networking-for-all/#comment-33 Joe Fri, 11 Aug 2006 21:34:24 +0000 http://www.cogentinsights.com/?p=35#comment-33 Great thoughts. The next generation of social networking will have to go vertical in my opinion. Affinity-based social networking (fanpop for example) is niched, but not necessarily vertical. I'm talking about pre-existing communities that already exist and meet face-to-face regularly. A church is a great example. A social network extends that offline community. This isn't a blatant plug for our website - which isn't even online yet. Its a prediction of where SNS is headed. As you mentioned, there are only so many ad dollars that can go to Web 2.0. The next generation will either have to concentrate on local advertising, or avoid ads altogether (which we plan to do) Joe Great thoughts.
