It has provided a great service--and 'Hey all my friends are here' seems being replaced with "WHY am I really here?" Many early adopters seem to be looking more now for purpose and beyond just connection. Strange but true. Many folks seem to be tiring of the somewhat "kumbayah" syndrome and now are looking for a more concrete productive path in social media. At least from what I am finding.

Search in it's current state, drives me crazy!

It's great to get a nice little rundown like this of all the different sites out there. Sometimes I forget that I actually signed up for an account on some of them (stupid Pownce!). But no matter how many <a href="http://www.twitter.com/guerrillared" rel="nofollow">twitter</a> clones are made, people will still find a use for them. Back when I was working a 9-5, we realized that hi5 was the fastest growing network in south america, so we tapped that for a hispanic jewelry product we were working on. We saw that twitter was dominated by Obama fans (and then I later wrote about it on my <a href="http://guerrillared.com/blog/2008/09/21/obama-tweets-mccain/" title="Philadelphia social media marketing consulting" rel="nofollow">social media marketing</a> blog) so we used that in a greater capacity for our political blog community. No matter how many of these little sites come along, there is always a marketing use for an entrepreneur that is in the right market at the right time. - Chris Great article.

The community is not specifically for sports-related relationships but 65% of its use is sports-related. I agree that niche-related communities are the hip criteria and where people will migrate. Probably more so because niche communities can / will provided niche-specific tools for its users. Great post, Chris. Even months later.
