!e define social network sites as web)based services that allow individuals to %3& construct a public or semi)public profile within a bounded system, %5& articulate a list of other users with whom they share a connection, and %4& view and traverse their list of connections and those made by others within the system. The nature and nomenclature of these connections may vary from site to site. !hile we use the term Gsocial network siteG to describe this phenomenon, the term Gsocial networking sitesG also appears in public discourse, and the two terms are often used interchangeably. !e chose not to employ the term GnetworkingG for two reasonsA emphasis and scope. G etworkingG emphasizes relationship initiation, often between strangers. !hile networking is possible on these sites, it is not the primary practice on many of them, nor is it what differentiates them from other forms of computer)mediated communication %,-,&. !hat makes social network sites uni(ue is not that they allow individuals to meet strangers, but rather that they enable users to articulate and make visible their social networks. This can result in connections between individuals that would not otherwise be made, but that is often not the goal, and these meetings are fre(uently between Glatent tiesG %/aythornthwaite, 5>>8& who share some offline connection. 7n many of the large S Ss, participants are not necessarily GnetworkingG or looking to meet new peopleH instead, they are primarily communicating with people who are already a part of their extended social network. To emphasize this articulated social network as a critical organizing feature of these sites, we label them Gsocial network sites.G /ope Frenzoholic will be able to provide with all these facilities and features to all of its users .

!e define social network sites as web)based services that allow individuals to %3& construct a public or semi)public profile within a bounded system, %5& articulate a list of other users with whom they share a connection, and %4& view and traverse their list of connections and those made by others within the system. The nature and nomenclature of these connections may vary from site to site. !hile we use the term Gsocial network siteG to describe this phenomenon, the term Gsocial networking sitesG also appears in public discourse, and the two terms are often used interchangeably. !e chose not to employ the term GnetworkingG for two reasonsA emphasis and scope. G etworkingG emphasizes relationship initiation, often between strangers. !hile networking is possible on these sites, it is not the primary practice on many of them, nor is it what differentiates them from other forms of computer)mediated communication %,-,&. !hat makes social network sites uni(ue is not that they allow individuals to meet strangers, but rather that they enable users to articulate and make visible their social networks. This can result in connections between individuals that would not otherwise be made, but that is often not the goal, and these meetings are fre(uently between Glatent tiesG %/aythornthwaite, 5>>8& who share some offline connection. 7n many of the large S Ss, participants are not necessarily GnetworkingG or looking to meet new peopleH instead, they are primarily communicating with people who are already a part of their extended social network. To emphasize this articulated social network as a critical organizing feature of these sites, we label them Gsocial network sites.G /ope Frenzoholic will be able to provide with all these facilities and features to all of its users .
