Social Networks Definitive Guide (work in progress)



Here is an attempt to catalog and review an exhaustive list of Social Networking Media and Services around the world. It is by no means complete, for new and diverse media emerge all the time, it will be updated on a regular basis and will, hopefully, provide a definitive guide for anyone willing to study social networking platforms in one place. Please, feel free to comment and contribute any way you find appropriate.

    Done. Would you be so kind as to send me a logo of your community, so I can properly review it? I appreciate it.

    Hello,

    I am the co-founder of a start-up, Quartzy (https://www.quartzy.com) tacking the problem from a different angle.

    Basically Quartzy is a network of scientists AND the things that they love: chemicals, reagents, protocols, and facilities!:) Think of it as a three-way network.

    You can find our logo here: http://admin.quartzy.com/images/Quartzy_small.jpg
