social elite

Initial social networking users went on-line looking for friends they knew but had lost. They were looking for members of established off-line networks and recreating the group in cyberspace. After we found a comfort level and established basic rules of engagement, we expanded our on-line networks and reached out to those of like mind and interest.

On-line networks have now become a dominant force in the lives of web users. I don’t know about you, but of the couple hundred or so folks I call a friend in all my social networks, I’ve probably only met half of them in person.
