If you use Facebook or LinkedIn, you are not surprised when you get invited to get people you do not know to join their network. Hey, it is a way to expand your social network. What is impressive is the list of "exotic" names of social networking platforms that TechCrunch has cataloged (saw it courtesy of Dennis Howlett). Some of these tools are actually more uesful for managing and publishing user generated content, but with the current fad around platforms like Facebook, might as well be called "social networking"
"These up-and-coming companies provide so-called “white label” social networking platforms that enable their customers to build their own social networks (often from scratch) and to tailor those networks to a range of purposes.
The idea of white labeling a network is to make the platform provider as invisible as possible to the social network’s users and to brand the network with the builder’s identity or intent. While definitions of “social networking” may vary, social networks are primarily defined by member profiles and some sort of user generated content."
