Relatious.com isn't your grandma's social media: it's Twitter plus the taboo, Facebook with the freaky, Ning and the naughty.
Relatious.com invites users to spill-all about their relationships (anonymously if they choose) and readers to comment on the questions, concerns, and comments confided on the site.
Relatious in its own words:
We all love to dish about relationships. Finally, here's a place where you can share virtually every aspect of those sexy, messy, often complicated, but always interesting love connections. Where you can confide to friends and they confide right back. Where you swap stories from the romantic trenches and help each other claw your way out.
Topics, so far, include "seduction," "day in, day out," "breakup," "sex," and "dating."
Relatious.com appeals to the best and the worst in us: we can play hero by giving advice to peers plagued with love problems (we've all been there), and simultaneously be an unabashed voyeur, reveling in other people's ecstasy, agony, embarrassment, and scandals.

While people are still joining Facebook and compulsively visiting the site, but a small but noticeable group are fleeing. The disillusionment with Facebook has come in waves. An early faction lost faith in 2008, when Facebook’s beloved Scrabble application, Scrabulous, was pulled amid copyright issues. It was suddenly clear that Facebook was not just a social club but also an expanding force on the Web, beholden to corporate interests.While people are still joining Facebook and compulsively visiting the site, but a... more

Okay I know that this has been posted before but i feel that it has been overlooked. There is an awesome website called Socialvibe.com . This website is completely devoted to giving money to charities which is not uncommon. The thing that's special about Socialvibe is that none of the money actually comes out of your pocket. All you have to do is put up adds from individual sponsors such as Sprint, Rockstar, Body Glove, The NBA, and Colgate on your social networking page. You can paste your add onto your Myspace, Facebook or wherever people will see it. Every time that the advertisement that you post is viewed your sponsor donates a certain amount of money to the charity of your choice. I encourage everyone to check it out for yourselves.Okay I know that this has been posted before but i feel that it has been overlooked.... more

I think this is a good change. Neat new Features.
Article:
Twitter has just rolled out the new version of its homepage that new potential users will see, or users who are not logged in will see. The design has been completely overhauled from the previous version which was fairly cluttered (see it at the bottom of the page). This new version is sleek and features trending topics by the minute, hour and day.
Most importantly, the new version features search functionality front and center. This way people who aren’t even Twitter users yet can search for things being said on the service. And results are nicely placed on the same page below the main area.
You’ll also notice that when you click on any of the popular topics, a description of why that topic is being featured appears along the top of the search results. This is something that is very helpful, as most trending topics seem to make no sense on the surface. It looks like Twitter is using the third-party service What The Trend? to populate these descriptions.
It’s important to note that nothing has changed about Twitter’s UI and functionality for those who are logged in. This is simply part of Twitter’s goal to make the service more accessible and obvious to new users. The bigger goal is to make it easier for businesses to use Twitter, which will allow the service to finally make some money. It’s new Twitter 101 area is another of the initial steps in that direction.I think this is a good change. Neat new Features.

After all, sharing ones thoughts/actions is at the core of social networks like Twitter, Facebook, MySpace.

The latest step in Rupert Murdoch’s effort to turn around the fortunes of his digital businesses came Tuesday in the form of hefty layoffs at MySpace.
MySpace, the social networking site owned by News Corporation, the media conglomerate controlled by Mr. Murdoch, said it was laying off roughly 400 employees, or nearly 30 percent of its staff. After the layoffs, MySpace will have about 1,000 workers.
The company said the layoffs were an attempt to return to a “start-up culture.”
In a statement, Owen Van Natta, a former Facebook executive who became chief executive of MySpace in April, said: “Simply put, our staffing levels were bloated and hindered our ability to be an efficient and nimble team-oriented company. I understand these changes are painful for many. They are also necessary for the long-term health and culture of MySpace. Our intent is to return to an environment of innovation that is centered on our user and our product.”
MySpace, which was acquired by News Corporation in 2005 for $580 million, was once the pre-eminent social networking site. But more recently it has lost some luster to Facebook, and at the same time has come up short of News Corporation’s financial projections.
Until recently, MySpace still had an advantage over Facebook in the United States, although Facebook had more users globally. But recently, according to comScore, Facebook has matched MySpace in the United States, with about 70 million members.
MySpace’s identity is closely associated with entertainment and music — a place where, for example, an upstart band would go to find a following. But Facebook has become the gathering place for users who want to share photos and connect with long-lost friends.
“Right now, MySpace has been attempting to compete to be the biggest social networking site,” said Josh Bernoff, an analyst at Forrester Research. “I don’t think that’s been successful. If MySpace is about your entertainment life, Facebook is about your whole life.”
Financially, MySpace is said to be profitable but has fallen short of expectations at a timeThe latest step in Rupert Murdoch’s effort to turn around the fortunes of his... more
