For almost a year now, I’ve been trying to share useful information with people who enjoy social networking online. Generations to come will be able to benefit from the skills we all possess – the ability to create and maintain networks online.

Social Networking – Background

Generation Y started social networking sites, and we’ve all witnessed the growth of these sites. Sites like these are producing a large amount of money from advertising revenue. Why? Because it just makes sense. Why does a business or company choose to advertise on billboard signs and commercials? Because the more exposure they get to the general population, the better. It’s the same idea with websites. If there are millions of people using a site, advertisers jump at the chance to have exposure in a large market of a targeted population.

The future of social networking?

I believe that the people who are creating and maintaining relationships on these sites can and will benefit financially in the future. Imagine a site where the creator shares this advertising revenue with its active members who are helping to grow the network. Now imagine what young people could do with extra money that is being generated from such efforts. We could actually help change the landscape of our world by having the ability to donate, or by having more time to give to our families and/or those in need. The millions of dollars that are being made from advertising revenue on sites like myspace or facebook could actually be shared amongst a large population of social networkers with a cause – and only those that are serious and devoted would share a substantial portion of this revenue.
