		<description>Niche social networks are a welcome addition to the web. Because they are more narrowly focused, they are better able to serve the needs of their community.

The large generic social networks like Facebook and Myspace are great for keeping in touch with friends, but small social networks offer much more - people just like you who share your same passions.

&lt;a href='http://www.qnahealth.com' rel="nofollow"&gt;Qnahealth&lt;/a&gt; is a new social network for health related information and support. It's designed to be friendly and easy to use and is focused around users asking and answering questions and sharing their experiences and knowledge.

We invite everyone to take a look as they explore their online health information options.

We welcome bloggers!</description>

		<description>In fairness to Facdebook, their adverts are only as accurate as the information we put into our profiles, and how active we are.

I get some shockingly irrelevant and sometimes insulting adverts, which prompt me to vote them down, citing my reasons.

Maybe that will help over time.

Katie, thanks for your comment!</description>

		<description>I too am very curious about the Social Networking Marketing scene.  970 Million seems like an astounding number to many but experience in the media planning world tells me this number is figuratively low when one considers all the social networking sites combined.  Facebook is my top site and too be honest, I love how they manage the advertisements.  A simple ad to the left about Arrested Development t-shirts, Angel v. Spike, or Pets.com don't both me one bit.  I really don't mind if the marketers took my information listed in my profile because I'm actually interested in learning more about what they have to offer, time-permitting.  I would rather have ads on sites I frequent that were geared to my tastes versus randomly placed ads from marketers trying to predict where their target audience is.</description>

		<description>I would also agree about the interest and growth of niche social network sites. We have put together the #1 Social Network for massage therapists and growing every day in membership and content.</description>

		<description>It's time to get across language division as well. Most networks are quite fine for the US, UK and EU markets.

But the ASEAN market are now the place to be and explore.

China, the next superpower and its policies on the social boundaries on individualism are quite clear and neat.

		<description>Nice article! I wrote a short article about the current state, and future of the 'social web'. It's mostly from a technical point of view.</description>
