There’s nothing more I wanna do than put social networking into context (such as Gamers and Games at 1UP.com or Movie Fans at Glowria.fr.)

So the following post Steven Kaye is - right on….

I’ve left Friendster, and the only reasons I’m on Tribe.net and Orkut are:

• I’ve founded groups on both, and dead as they both are I feel a certain responsibility.
• Orkut reminds me of people’s birthdays.

Another model of social software tries to bring together people in the same area. Thus I-Neighbors and the latest, MeetTheNeighbors.org. I-Neighbors focuses on a geographic neighborhood (in my case, Downtown Jersey City), while MeetTheNeighbors.org is more for anonymous apartment-dwellers in the same building. I got a flyer on my door with the details to sign up, and there’s a holiday get-together planned at The Ground on December 2nd at 8 pm. We’ll see how this works, but already that’s more activity than I’ve seen from my local I-Neighborhood.

Let me just say - I’m sitting here at Tribe.net right now - trying to make sure that Tribe 2.0 rocks the house. DLAs = here we come!
