MSN and cie

Finding friends, talking to them, sharing with them videos and photos : that's the reality of web.
Thanks to Flickr, Youtube, MSN Messenger and all the communication means , people create social links.

This virtual life is the future, but, when I say virtual, I mean with real people . Internet technologies connect people.

But this notion of "social networks" is not so new. Indeed it was created en 1954 in order to describe communities links. People always wanted to meet others, but nowadays you belong to a community not only because it's your family, but because you have the same hobbies, the same ideas, the same passion.

Those tools, those social networks can be used for professional issues. Groupware and Knowledge Management help workers to share their knowledge and to discuss about the problems.
