Launch of OnlineSocialNetworks Majordomo List
During the past several years, online social networking
sites have
become quite pervasive within a variety of personal and
professional
communities. As noted by Wikipedia, *a social network
service focuses
on the building * of online social networks for communities
of people
who share interests and activities * . Most social network
services *
provide a collection of various ways for users to interact,
such as
chat, messaging, email, video, voice chat, file sharing,
blogging,
discussion groups, * [etc.]*
