Week 10 – social networks (online security )

I was browsing through to see more on this week’s topic.  And I found some interesting stuff.    

Have you come across these e-social networks?  I thought it was really cool

à       futureofthebook.org that discusses interesting posts – this part of the blog is relevant to our topic

à       Bakespace – a social networking site for people who like cooking. This does not interest me, but may interest some of you

à       Respectance – to share memories, this also allows people to pay respect to people that you adore – they have one for Hemmingway

Further, I thought the below materials may interest you as they are on e-identities, an aspect that I am interested in

à       Federated Identity – this has very little to do with any of our topics but I thought this was a very cool thing to share, as it could be a possible future for online business networks.

à       Wikipedia article on online identity

à       A collection of peer-reviewed research studies on social networks

à       I stumbled upon this great page published by ALA check it out.  It has a very good collection on security issues with respect to web and online communities.  I have also tagged it on delicious this is only in case you miss it.

à       Online discussion on online social networks

à       This is the COOLEST a tool on visualizing SNW –

I guess I am calling quits on this subject.  This has been my problem; when I am into something I can not just stop exploring.  So, I am officially ending my researching on social networks.
