What is the Next Big Social Networking Site?

Written by Hugh, on January 29th, 2009

Social Networking sites allow us to connect to old friends and make new friends with similar interests. I have made a lot of trading and real estate connections on these sites and got in touch with people that I haven’t seen since elementary school.

I even got a great massage once. Just to clarify, it wasn’t a ‘happy ending’ massage. I was feeling tense and fortunately met a very cute and professional young woman who owned a massage practice in another state and gave me the best professional massage ever! Anyway, that’s more than you wanted to know. My point is that these sites are great ways to connect with people.

Facebook is all the rage right now and I have to admit, it is pretty cool. And after getting used to Twitter, it is really fun and informative.

But how many of you remember sites like Xanga, Friendster and Asian Avenue? If you are under 25, I doubt you have ever heard of them. And what was that other site…MySpace or something? Psssh, I don’t know anyone who goes on MySpace anymore.

So the question becomes, what is the next big networking site?

Well, I looked at Orkrut.com awhile back and I think that maybe the next big thing in the US. It is supposed to be one of the biggest international social networking sites. What do you think? Leave a comment with your thoughts.
