A social network service is an online service, platform, or site that
focuses on building and reflecting of social networks or social
relations among people, e.g., who share interests and/or activities. A
social network service essentially consists of a representation of
each user (often a profile), his/her social links, and a variety of
additional services. Most social network services are web based and
provide means for users to interact over the internet, such as e-mail
and instant messaging. Although online community services are
sometimes considered as a social network service. In a broader sense,
social network service usually means an individual-centered service
whereas online community services are group-centered. Social
networking sites allow users to share ideas, activities, events, and
interests within their individual networks.
The main types of social networking services are those which contain
category places (such as former school-year or classmates), means to
connect with friends (usually with self-description pages) and a
recommendation system linked to trust. Popular methods now combine
many of these, with Facebook and Twitter widely used worldwide;
MySpace and LinkedIn being the most widely used in North America;[1]
Nexopia (mostly in Canada);[2] Bebo,[3] Hi5, Hyves (mostly in The
Netherlands), StudiVZ (mostly in Germany), iWiW (mostly in Hungary),
Tuenti (mostly in Spain), Nasza-Klasa (mostly in Poland), Decayenne,
Tagged, XING,[4] Badoo[5] and Skyrock in parts of Europe;[6] Orkut and
Hi5 in South America, India and Central America;[7] and Friendster,
Mixi, Multiply, Orkut, Wretch, renren and Cyworld in Asia and the
Pacific Islands and Twitter, Orkut and Facebook in India.
There have been attempts to standardize these services to avoid the
need to duplicate entries of friends and interests (see the FOAF
standard and the Open Source Initiative).
Although some of the largest social networks were founded on the
notion of digitizing real world connections, many networks focus on
categories from books and music to non-profit business to motherhood
as ways to provide both services and community to individuals with
shared interests…..
