Lee LeFever gives us the lowdown between BB, Forums, etc. and Friendster, Myspace, etc.
The differences play out on the following factors:
- Use of the Member Profile
- Identity without Collaboration
- Explicit Relationships with Forums and People
- New Forum/Group Creation
- Network Centric Navigation
More here. Bottom line for Social Web Applications is that they highlight the person in the context of a community. Whether this can solve the problem of spam is unclear. To be sure, we have options for broader user empowerment.
