Trends in networks
• Facebook and Myspace don’t work, because people use this for leisure, not for profy stuff. They don’t know what to do with it.
• LinkedIn works, because people come there specially for professional business.
• Yahoo groups work, because they are highly specialized. They appeal to the long tail…

The Long Tail
• Products appealing to a niche• Not incredibly popular• Best marketed by word of
mouth• So folksonomies, polls, social
networks…
