Hi Tom

perhaps you might be interested in Danah Boyd and Nicole Ellison's
draft introduction to their forthcoming issue of the Journal of Computer
Mediated Communications which is focussing on social network sites? It
provides an excellent overview of what people are doing with these
platforms now - 
see http://www.danah.org/papers/worksinprogress/SNSHistory.html 

I guess I'm interested not so much in what people are doing but what
they might be able to do in the future. What are the limits and
possibilities of such systems? As people interested in researching
network culture,  it makes sense to me to engage with these platforms,
IMHO.

Cheers, Lisa
