How it works ??
Basically, social networking is a way to
people of some similar interests connect.
The beauty is that this happens when people
you may not know find you (and your business)
because of some connection they have with
someone you both know.
Social networking is happening all the
time.
Examples :-
Well, if you tell a friend about a service or product
you like youre social networking.
If you share another bloggers post with your blog
readersyoure social networking.
Hand out a business card youre social
networking.
Returning phone calls, responding to email,
contacting your blog commenters, building
relationships with other bloggers, even writing on
forums all of this and more fall under
social networking.
One great way is to utilize social
networking communities such as
Friendster, MyBlogLog and Facebook.

Each can get you linked to friends and


colleagues -who link to people creating
your network.
Examples :-
Social networking has opened up a new way to communicate,
so while your child's posts may not be essential today, your child
is still learning skills that could be very valuable tomorrow.

1. Work Connections.
One form of social networking that's growing in popularity is corporate social
networking.

You can use corporate social networking to form relationships with other
people from your company, or people in other companies in an industry.

Get references and build a reputation using corporate social networking tools.

It's a great way to get yourself known and network in your field or industry.
2. Keeping in Touch.

Social networking provides a great way for you to stay in touch with people who
may have moved away.Normally, people try to stay in touch with friends via
phone calls and the occasional letter or e-mail, but busy lives make it difficult to
maintain contact.

social networking is such a regularly used medium that it's easy to stay in touch
with people even when they move away.

3. Get Feedback.

You can use social networking to get feedback on ideas immediately, or to ask
questions and get answers quickly.

You can also ask questions and receive answers in near-real-time, if your
contacts know the answer or if you're a student in touch with teachers.
4. Share Multiple Points of View.
o Social networking helps you learn about diversity and get exposure to multiple
points of view.

o This exposure also can help you to learn to look at things from different angles,
and be more tolerant of other people's opinions, things that go a long way in the
working world.

5. Talking to Other Students.


Social networking tools can be a great way for students to get in touch with other
students in the same school, or when they're considering a college or new school.

Check with student organizations to see if they have a particular social networking
tool, or type the school into your favorite social networking Web site and see what
you find.
6. Stay in Touch Anywhere.

People can use mobile social networking tools to stay in touch


with friends, and make plans on the fly.

Mobile social networking tools are also great if you've got a


long train or subway commute and want to stay in touch with
friends and find out what they're doing.
DISADVANTAGES OF SOCIAL NETWORK
a) Lack of Anonymity
You are putting out information about your name, location, age,
gender, and many other types of information that you may not want
to let others know. Most people would say be careful, but no one
can be certain at any given time. As long as people can know who
you exactly are, then some can find ways to do you in.

b) Scams and Harassment


There is a potential for failure of security in both personal and
business context. While many sites apply certain measures to keep
any of these cases of harassment, cyber-stalking, online scams, and
identity theft to an absolute minimum, you still may never know.

c) Time Consuming
If this is not your kind of thing, that it would just be a waste of
time for you. The key to social networking is that it is supposed to
be fun, whether you are just doing it for kicks or clicking around for
business purposes. That should be reasonable enough for anyone, but
there are those people who don't see the point. For them, it can be
a disadvantage.
