To all concerned....

Like so many on this curious thing we call the Internet, I use Social networking. They are handy tools to interact with friends from the comfort of my home. The only problem is this. I have friends who are on Bebo, Facebook and Myspace, and very few of them want to switch from their current one.

So, what am I talking to you for? Well, my current situation is not convenient. Where thousands choose one Social network, I, along with thousands more, cannot. I also do not want to go zipping back and forth, tending to each page individually. This takes time which I cannot give.

I am not alone in this situation, and sure, you would want competition, but this competition is at the expense of your users! Not everyone is willing to choose. Bebo has Great usability, Facebook is clean, open and flexible, and myspace can support HTML, but your users need something more...

I propose that sometime in the future, I (or indeed someone else) will develop an application/widget to link all the sites together, and allow interactivity between the two. You must be aware that disgrantled users DO have the power to do this. The only question is therefore who, and when.
