What is it that is so intriguing about social media sites? There are so many of them out there that you couldn’t possibly sign up with all of them. Everywhere you kook on the internet you will find them. No longer do you log on to the internet and start searching through the digital magazine we used to call online surfing. Look out world the www has changed.
We are now interacting with almost every website we come across and meeting more and more diverse people than ever before. Even your grand parents are starting to enter into the social network craze. It’s hard to fathom the amount of people that are online today.
It’s time for everyone’s talent for fame to come out of the woodwork. You don’t have to be a movie star, rock star or even a talk show host to be a celebrity. Just get yourself a blog and write good content. There are a host of social networks to become a member of and build a popularity that you have never known.
Cyber space is such a vast entity and we have just begun to scratch the surface. I for one am excited to see where this will all lead to. Growing up in the 60s was a far cry from what I am living today. I can remember watching Star Trek back in 1968 on a black & white TV with my father and was amazed at the technology with talking computers and digital pads for reading reports and signing off on. It sounds a little like the palm pilot. Little did I know that I would be a witness to a good portion of that technology today, how far we have come in what, just 40 years it’s amazing.
Going forward, I decided to do a search on how many social networks I could find and came up with this very large list. I decided to list the whole thing here for you to explore for your self. You can see for yourself just how popular the social network craze has become.
I have broken this list down into specific categories to make it easier to explore each category. I hope you find this list as overwhelming as I have

Great post, but you missed www.bragalia.com - quite new, and not too much there, but may grow strong...
Thanks for the addition, Feel free to add any others you can think of.
I am new to this social marketing and after reading this post I am floored...I had no idea how many of these actually existed!!!
Wow. I like to think I am pretty web savvy but good grief! I had no idea there were so many. It would take a staff of 50 full time people to keep up with all of them. I think it is best to find the 3 to 5 you like best and just stick with them.
This is a very good list indeed - and I bet there are many more to come.
