So if you\u2019re a Twitterer or a Facebooker, do you have something of value to say or we are just following the herd? Are we doing any value addition so as to help broaden the mindset of your followers with your information?<br \/>\nFor me the <a href=\"www.socialnetworking.in\">social networking<\/a> scene is good for my business, but am I contributing enough for others in my circle?<br \/>\nWhen the Facebook platform first became popular, it was primarily with college students who socialized about things that interested them: parties test scores, campus events, etc. After a while (like these days), you can find a lot more diversified audience of moms, freelancers and a host of businesses who connect to their own websites and product lines. According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/press\/info.php?statistics\">Facebook\u2019s statistics page<\/a>, there are now over 200 million users on Facebook and that is a lot of people who have something to say!<br \/>\nWith Twitter, it\u2019s quite flattering to get a \u201cding\u201d in your inbox announcing that someone is \u201cnow following you on Twitter.\u201d We never tire or get bored with reading who\u2019s following you because we want to learn more about them. I think that\u2019s one component of Twitter that\u2019s pretty good. And since Twitter responses are more succinct than Facebook\u2019s (generally speaking), when you Tweet, you better be sure to have something to say, say it quickly (or succinctly), and move on. But what if you are of the \u2018know-it-all types and like to explain things in detail?<br \/>\nThese are only two social networks that I\u2019ve mentioned, but there are countless more with new ones popping up all of the time. They certainly are here to stay, but are you as an individual, a business person or a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zdnetasia.com\/insight\/internet\/0,39044877,62044890,00.htm\">corporate representative <\/a> getting any value from those sites? Are you finding that they enhance your business knowledge, or do you find that you\u2019re trudging through a lot of unnecessary information to get to the pearls? The answers to these questions will decide whether you add value to others or not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nowadays it is a fashion statement to be on Facebook or twitter or any other social networking website.
